Table 9 Average speed in sentence pairs per second (sent/s) and CUI pairs per second (CUIs/s) for the evaluation of the UBSM [39] sentence similarity measure combined with three representative ontology-based similarity measures based on MeSH (Nov, 2019) in 30 sentence pairs extracted from the MedSTS [135] sentence similarity dataset, and 1 million sentence pairs extracted from BioC corpus [136]
From: HESML: a real-time semantic measures library for the biomedical domain with a reproducible survey
