Supporting Resources

This dataset is now obsolete.

Check out the new iteration of the Bacteria Biotope in BioNLP Open Shared Tasks 2019.

The goal of the supporting resources for the BioNLP Shared Task 2016 is to provide the task participants with annotations from state-of-the-art automated tools in order to minimize the time-investment necessary to participate in the shared task and to allow for participants to experiment on how to leverage automated analyses provided by existing Natural Language Processing systems.

Resources and format

Available resources are listed below. Each resource is a file to be downloaded, it is the result of a tool (presented tools) on the train, dev and test datasets. Please note that Shared Task organizers are not responsible for the data quality, the resources are presented as provided by the tools. If you have any questions regarding the resources, please contact: maiage-bibliome at jouy.inra.fr
