Scaling Sensor Metadata Extraction for Exposure Health Using LLMs

Abstract

Abstract Background The rapid evolution and diversity of sensor technologies, coupled with inconsistencies in how sensor metadata is reported across formats and sources, present significant challenges for generating exposomes and exposure health research. Objective Despite the development of standardized metadata schemas, the process of extracting sensor metadata from unstructured sources remains largely manual and unscalable. To address this bottleneck, we developed and evaluated a large language model (LLM)-based pipeline for automating sensor metadata extraction and harmonization from exposure health literature publicly available. Methods Using GPT-4 in a zero-shot setting, we constructed a pipeline that parses full-text PDFs to extract metadata and harmonizes output into structured formats. Results: Our automated pipeline achieved substantial efficiency gains in completing extractions much faster than manual review and demonstrated strong performance with average accuracy and precision of 94.74%, recall of 100%, and F1-score of 97.28%. Conclusions This study demonstrates the feasibility and scalability of leveraging LLMs to automate sensor metadata extraction for exposure health, reducing manual burden while enhancing metadata completeness and consistency. Our findings support the integration of LLM-driven pipelines into exposure health informatics platforms.
