### Dataset Summary

WNUT 17: Emerging and Rare entity recognition

This shared task focuses on identifying unusual, previously-unseen entities in the context of emerging discussions.
Named entities form the basis of many modern approaches to other tasks (like event clustering and summarisation),
but recall on them is a real problem in noisy text - even among annotators. This drop tends to be due to novel entities and surface forms.
Take for example the tweet “so.. kktny in 30 mins?” - even human experts find entity kktny hard to detect and resolve.
This task will evaluate the ability to detect and classify novel, emerging, singleton named entities in noisy text.

The goal of this task is to provide a definition of emerging and of rare entities, and based on that, also datasets for detecting these entities.

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

- **Size of downloaded dataset files:** 0.80 MB
- **Size of the generated dataset:** 1.74 MB
- **Total amount of disk used:** 2.55 MB

An example of 'train' looks as follows.
```
{
    "id": "0",
    "ner_tags": [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 7, 8, 8, 0, 7, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
    "tokens": ["@paulwalk", "It", "'s", "the", "view", "from", "where", "I", "'m", "living", "for", "two", "weeks", ".", "Empire", "State", "Building", "=", "ESB", ".", "Pretty", "bad", "storm", "here", "last", "evening", "."]
}
```

### Data Fields

The data fields are the same among all splits:
- `id` (`string`): ID of the example.
- `tokens` (`list` of `string`): Tokens of the example text.
- `ner_tags` (`list` of class labels): NER tags of the tokens (using IOB2 format), with possible values:
  - 0: `O`
  - 1: `B-corporation`
  - 2: `I-corporation`
  - 3: `B-creative-work`
  - 4: `I-creative-work`
  - 5: `B-group`
  - 6: `I-group`
  - 7: `B-location`
  - 8: `I-location`
  - 9: `B-person`
  - 10: `I-person`
  - 11: `B-product`
  - 12: `I-product`
