Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

3.0.3 (2024-07-16)

Added

  • A cache_path option, to define the path for saving/loading the lookup structure cache. You should use this if your install directory is not writable.

Removed

  • the config_file keyword, now replaced by config which accepts both filenames and dicts
  • old lookup list names, e.g. prefixes now replaced by prefix
  • annotator types custom, regexp, token_pattern, dd_token_pattern and annotation_context, all replaced by setting class directly as annotator_type
  • everything in deduce.pattern, patient patterns now replaced by PatientNameAnnotator

3.0.2 (2024-02-15)

Changed

  • recognize 4+ spaces as a token, blocking annotations

3.0.1 (2023-12-20)

Fixed

  • a bug with packaging base_config.json

3.0.0 (2023-12-20)

Added

  • speed optimizations, ~250%
  • pseudo-annotating eponymous diseases (e.g. Creutzfeldt-Jakob)
  • PatientNameAnnotator, which replaces deduce.pattern
  • a structured way for loading and building lookup structures (lists and tries), including caching
  • pre_match_words for some regexp annotators, speeding up the annotating
  • option to present a user config as dict (using config keyword)

Changed

  • speedup for TokenPatternAnnotator
  • some internals of ContextPatternAnnotator
  • initials now detected by lookup list, rather than pattern
  • redactor open and close chars from < > to [ ], as previous chars caused issues in html (so deidentified text now shows [PATIENT], [LOCATIE], etc.)
  • names of lookup structures to singular (prefix, rather than prefixes)
  • INSTELLING tag to ZIEKENHUIS and ZORGINSTELLING
  • refactored and simplified annotator loading, specifically the annotator_type config keyword now accepts references to classes (e.g deduce.annotator.TokenPatternAnnotator)
  • renamed interfix_with_capital annotator to interfix_with_name

Deprecated

  • the config_file keyword, now replaced by config which accepts both filenames and dicts
  • old lookup list names, e.g. prefixes now replaced by prefix
  • annotator types custom, regexp, token_pattern, dd_token_pattern and annotation_context, all replaced by setting class directly as annotator_type
  • everything in deduce.pattern, patient patterns now replaced by PatientNameAnnotator

Removed

  • automated coverage reporting on coveralls.io
  • options lowercase_lookup, lowercase_neg_lookup for token patterns
  • utils.any_in_text

Fixed

  • some small additions/removals for specific lookup lists
  • smaller bugs related to overlapping matches

2.5.0 (2023-11-28)

Added

  • the RegexpPseudoAnnotator component for filtering regexp matches based on preceding/following words
  • a prefix_with_interfix pattern for names, detecting e.g. Dr. van Loon

Changed

  • the age detection component, with improved logic and pseudo patterns
  • annotations are no longer counted adjacent when separated by a comma
  • streets are prioritized over names when merging overlapping annotations
  • removed some false positives for postal codes ending in gr or ie
  • extended the postbus pattern for xx.xxx format (old notation)
  • some smaller optimizations and exceptions for institution, hospital, placename, residence, medical term, first name, and last name lookup lists

Fixed

  • a bug with BsnAnnotator with non-digit characters in regexp

2.4.2 (2023-11-22)

Changed

  • multi-token lookup for first- and last names, so multi token names are now detected
  • some small lookup list additions

2.4.3 (2023-11-22)

Changed

  • extended list of medical terms

2.4.2 (2023-11-21)

Changed

  • name lookup list contents, extending names and adding more exceptions

2.4.1 (2023-11-15)

Added

  • detection of initials Ch., Chr., Ph. and Th.

2.4.0 (2023-11-15)

Added

  • logic for detecting hospitals, with added whitelist and separate annotator

Changed

  • logic for detecting (non-hospital) institutions, with extended lookup list

Removed

  • the separate Altrecht annotator, now included in the lookup list

2.3.1 (2023-11-01)

Fixed

  • include data files recursively in package

2.3.0 (2023-10-25)

Added

  • lookup lists (and logic) for Dutch provinces, regions, municipalities and streets

Changed

  • name of residences annotator to placenames, now includes provinces, regions and municipalities
  • lookup lists (and logic) for residences
  • logic for streets, housenumber and housenumber letters

2.2.0 (2023-09-28)

Changed

  • tokenizer logic:
    • a token is now a sequence of alphanumeric characters, a single newline, or a single special character.
    • whitespaces are no longer considered tokens
  • moved token pattern logic to config, using a new TokenPatternAnnotator
  • moved context pattern logic to config, using a new ContextAnnotator
  • many updates to name detection logic
    • lookup list optimizations
    • added, removed and simplified patterns

2.1.0 (2023-08-07)

Added

  • a component for deidentifying BSN-nummers

Changed

  • updated dependencies
  • by default, deduce now recognizes and tags bsn nummers
  • by default, deduce now recognizes all other 7+ digit numbers as identifiers
  • improved regular expressions for e-mail address and url matching, with separate tags
  • logic for detecting phone numbers (improvements for hyphens, whitespaces, false positive identifiers)
  • improved regular expression for age matching
  • date detection logic:
    • now only recognizes combinations of day, month and year (day/month combinations caused many false positives)
    • detects year-month-day format in addition to (day-month-year)
  • loading a custom config now only replaces the config options that are explicitly set, using defaults for those not included in the custom config

Deprecated

  • backwards compatibility, which was temporary added to transition from v1 to v2

Removed

  • a separate patient identifier tag, now superseded by a generic tag
  • detection of day/month combinations for dates, as this caused many false positives (e.g. lab values, numeric scores)

Fixed

  • annotations can no longer be counted as adjacent when separated by newline or tab (and will thus not be merged)

2.0.3 (2023-04-06)

Fixed

  • removed 'decibutus' from list of institutions as it caused many false positives

2.0.2 (2023-03-28)

  • upgraded dependencies, including markdown-it-py which had a vulnerability

2.0.1 (2022-12-09)

Changed

  • upgraded dependencies

  • support for python 3.10 and 3.11

Changed

  • major refactor that touches pretty much every line of code
  • use docdeid package for logic
  • speedups: now 973% faster
  • use lookup sets instead of lookup lists
  • refactor tokenizer
  • refactor annotators into separate classes, using structured annotations

  • deduce does not strip text (whitespaces, tabs at beginning/end of text) anymore

1.0.8 (2021-11-29)

Added

  • warn if there are any structured annotations whose annotated text does not match the original text in the span denoted by the structured annotation

Fixed

  • various modifications related to adding or subtracting spaces in annotated texts
  • remove the lowercasing of institutions' names
  • therefore, all structured annotations have texts matching the original text in the same span
