Dataset Card for BUSTER

BUSiness Transaction Entity Recognition dataset.

BUSTER is an Entity Recognition (ER) benchmark for entities related to business transactions. It consists of a gold corpus of 3779 manually annotated documents on financial transactions that were randomly divided into 5 folds, plus an additional silver corpus of 6196 automatically annotated documents that were created by the model-optimized RoBERTa system.

    abstract = "Albeit Natural Language Processing has seen major breakthroughs in the last few years, transferring such advances into real-world business cases can be challenging. One of the reasons resides in the displacement between popular benchmarks and actual data. Lack of supervision, unbalanced classes, noisy data and long documents often affect real problems in vertical domains such as finance, law and health. To support industry-oriented research, we present BUSTER, a BUSiness Transaction Entity Recognition dataset. The dataset consists of 3779 manually annotated documents on financial transactions. We establish several baselines exploiting both general-purpose and domain-specific language models. The best performing model is also used to automatically annotate 6196 documents, which we release as an additional silver corpus to BUSTER.",
