Dataset Summary
CoNLL-NERC is the Spanish dataset of the CoNLL-2002 Shared Task (Tjong Kim Sang, 2002). The dataset is annotated with four types of named entities --persons, locations, organizations, and other miscellaneous entities-- formatted in the standard Beginning-Inside-Outside (BIO) format. The corpus consists of 8,324 train sentences with 19,400 named entities, 1,916 development sentences with 4,568 named entities, and 1,518 test sentences with 3,644 named entities.
We use this corpus as part of the EvalEs Spanish language benchmark.
