Abstract

The 2021 ALTA shared task is the 12th instance of a series of shared tasks organised by ALTA since 2010. Motivated by the advances in machine learning in the last 10 years, this year’s task is a re-visit of the 2011 ALTA shared task. Set within the framework of Evidence Based Medicine (EBM), the goal is to predict the quality of the clinical evidence present in a set of documents. This year’s participant results did not improve over those of participants from 2011.
