Dataset Card for leNER-br

Dataset Summary

LeNER-Br is a Portuguese language dataset for named entity recognition applied to legal documents. LeNER-Br consists entirely of manually annotated legislation and legal cases texts and contains tags for persons, locations, time entities, organizations, legislation and legal cases. To compose the dataset, 66 legal documents from several Brazilian Courts were collected. Courts of superior and state levels were considered, such as Supremo Tribunal Federal, Superior Tribunal de Justiça, Tribunal de Justiça de Minas Gerais and Tribunal de Contas da União. In addition, four legislation documents were collected, such as "Lei Maria da Penha", giving a total of 70 documents

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

An example from the dataset looks as follows:

{
  "id": "0",
  "ner_tags": [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 0, 0, 0],
  "tokens": [
    "EMENTA", ":", "APELAÇÃO", "CÍVEL", "-", "AÇÃO", "DE", "INDENIZAÇÃO", "POR", "DANOS", "MORAIS", "-", "PRELIMINAR", "-", "ARGUIDA", "PELO", "MINISTÉRIO", "PÚBLICO", "EM", "GRAU", "RECURSAL"]
}

Data Fields

  • id: id of the sample
  • tokens: the tokens of the example text
  • ner_tags: the NER tags of each token

The NER tags correspond to this list:

"O", "B-ORGANIZACAO", "I-ORGANIZACAO", "B-PESSOA", "I-PESSOA", "B-TEMPO", "I-TEMPO", "B-LOCAL", "I-LOCAL", "B-LEGISLACAO", "I-LEGISLACAO", "B-JURISPRUDENCIA", "I-JURISPRUDENCIA"

The NER tags have the same format as in the CoNLL shared task: a B denotes the first item of a phrase and an I any non-initial word.
