Access to relevant information and knowledge is essential for all steps of the drug discovery process. However, keeping track of relevant information in publications and patents becomes a real challenge for scientists and managers in industrial research. Computer-aided information extraction (IE) systems have been developed to support the work of scientists by extracting relevant information from scientific publications and presenting it in an aggregated, condensed form. In this review, we will give an overview on current information extraction strategies in the life sciences with a special focus on biological entity recognition and more recent developments towards the identification and extraction of chemical compound names and structures.
