Fine-grained Named Entity Annotations for German Biographic Interviews (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a NER annotation scheme is adapted for a corpus of transcripts of biographic interviews with emigrants to German . a dataset of spoken data and teaser tweets from newspaper sites are used to test the NER inventory. |
| Approach: | They propose a fine-grained NER annotation scheme with 30 labels and apply it to German data. |
| Outcome: | The proposed NER annotations can be applied to spoken data and teaser tweets from newspaper sites and achieve good inter-annotator agreement. |
