Developing a Disease Outbreak Event Corpus

Developing a Disease Outbreak Event Corpus

Kawazoe et al [16] reported that the Bio Caster system’s NER module achieved an F-score of 76.97, while for the PULS system (which is an event extraction system that relies on input from the Med ISys IR system), it is estimated that approximately 72% of the extracted events are correct [11]. While this kind of evaluation work is important for system developers, the obvious difficulty in comparing reported results illustrates the need for a community-wide data set for algorithm testing.
