Creating a Dataset for Named Entity Recognition in the Archaeology Domain (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Currently, there is no way to find 'by-catch', single finds of a different type, in the metadata of excavation reports. |
| Approach: | They propose to train NER classifiers on Dutch excavation reports to help archaeologists find structured information in archaic documents. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset contains 31k annotations between six entity types (artefact, time period, place, context, species & material). |
