Abstract

Information Retrieval (IR) holds significant value due to the opportunities it provides such as atomicity, manageability, accuracy, and relevancy. Topic detection, as a sub-branch of Information Retrieval, receives significant attention in many areas such as marketing, finance, and education. Although it may not be as popular as the aforementioned areas, Medicine is nevertheless an area in which topic detection is significant. In this study, it is aimed to detect the disease classes (International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-10 C-Type) on the Turkish medical summaries’ dataset. The text processing, model creation (FastText and BERT), and the performance measurement steps are realized. As the results, 86% overall F1-Score by using optimized hyperparameters with FastText and 92% by using DistilBERTurk are obtained.
