Dataset Description

Dataset Summary

RONEC, at version 2.0, holds 12330 sentences with over 0.5M tokens, annotated with 15 classes, to a total of 80.283 distinctly annotated entities.

The corpus has the following classes and distribution in the train/valid/test splits:

| Classes | Total | Train | | Valid | | Test | | |------------- |:------: |:------: |:-------: |:------: |:-------: |:------: |:-------: | | | # | # | % | # | % | # | % | | PERSON | 26130 | 19167 | 73.35 | 2733 | 10.46 | 4230 | 16.19 | | GPE | 11103 | 8193 | 73.79 | 1182 | 10.65 | 1728 | 15.56 | | LOC | 2467 | 1824 | 73.94 | 270 | 10.94 | 373 | 15.12 | | ORG | 7880 | 5688 | 72.18 | 880 | 11.17 | 1312 | 16.65 | | LANGUAGE | 467 | 342 | 73.23 | 52 | 11.13 | 73 | 15.63 | | NAT_REL_POL | 4970 | 3673 | 73.90 | 516 | 10.38 | 781 | 15.71 | | DATETIME | 9614 | 6960 | 72.39 | 1029 | 10.7 | 1625 | 16.9 | | PERIOD | 1188 | 862 | 72.56 | 129 | 10.86 | 197 | 16.58 | | QUANTITY | 1588 | 1161 | 73.11 | 181 | 11.4 | 246 | 15.49 | | MONEY | 1424 | 1041 | 73.10 | 159 | 11.17 | 224 | 15.73 | | NUMERIC | 7735 | 5734 | 74.13 | 814 | 10.52 | 1187 | 15.35 | | ORDINAL | 1893 | 1377 | 72.74 | 212 | 11.2 | 304 | 16.06 | | FACILITY | 1126 | 840 | 74.6 | 113 | 10.04 | 173 | 15.36 | | WORK_OF_ART | 1596 | 1157 | 72.49 | 176 | 11.03 | 263 | 16.48 | | EVENT | 1102 | 826 | 74.95 | 107 | 9.71 | 169 | 15.34 |

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

The dataset is a list of instances. For example, an instance looks like:

{
  "id": 10454,
  "tokens": ["Pentru", "a", "vizita", "locația", "care", "va", "fi", "pusă", "la", "dispoziția", "reprezentanților", "consiliilor", "județene", ",", "o", "delegație", "a", "U.N.C.J.R.", ",", "din", "care", "a", "făcut", "parte", "și", "dl", "Constantin", "Ostaficiuc", ",", "președintele", "C.J.T.", ",", "a", "fost", "prezentă", "la", "Bruxelles", ",", "între", "1-3", "martie", "."], 
  "ner_tags": ["O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "B-PERSON", "O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "B-ORG", "O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "B-PERSON", "I-PERSON", "I-PERSON", "I-PERSON", "I-PERSON", "B-ORG", "O", "O", "O", "O", "O", "B-GPE", "O", "B-PERIOD", "I-PERIOD", "I-PERIOD", "O"], 
  "ner_ids": [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 5, 0, 19, 20, 20, 0], 
  "space_after": [true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, false, true, true, true, true, false, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, false, true, true, false, true, true, true, true, true, false, true, true, true, false, false]
}

Data Fields

The fields of each examples are:

  • tokens are the words of the sentence.
  • ner_tags are the string tags assigned to each token, following the BIO2 format. For example, the span "între", "1-3", "martie" has three tokens, but is a single class PERIOD, marked as "B-PERIOD", "I-PERIOD", "I-PERIOD".
  • ner_ids are the integer encoding of each tag, to be compatible with the standard and to be quickly used for model training. Note that each B-starting tag is odd, and each I-starting tag is even.
  • space_after is used to help if there is a need to detokenize the dataset. A true value means that there is a space after the token on that respective position.

Data Splits

The dataset is split in train: 9000 sentences, dev: 1330 sentence and test: 2000 sentences.

Annotations

The corpus was annotated with the following classes:

  1. PERSON - proper nouns, including common nouns or pronouns if they refer to a person. (e.g. 'sister')
  2. GPE - geo political entity, like a city or a country; has to have a governance form
  3. LOC - location, like a sea, continent, region, road, address, etc.
  4. ORG - organization
  5. LANGUAGE - language (e.g. Romanian, French, etc.)
  6. NAT_REL_POL - national, religious or political organizations
  7. DATETIME - a time and date in any format, including references to time (e.g. 'yesterday')
  8. PERIOD - a period that is precisely bounded by two date times
  9. QUANTITY - a quantity that is not numerical; it has a unit of measure
  10. MONEY - a monetary value, numeric or otherwise
  11. NUMERIC - a simple numeric value, represented as digits or words
  12. ORDINAL - an ordinal value like 'first', 'third', etc.
  13. FACILITY - a named place that is easily recognizable
  14. WORK_OF_ART - a work of art like a named TV show, painting, etc.
  15. EVENT - a named recognizable or periodic major event

Annotation process

The corpus was annotated by 3 language experts, and was cross-checked for annotation consistency. The annotation took several months to complete, but the result is a high quality dataset.

Who are the annotators?

Personal and Sensitive Information

All the source data is already freely downloadable and usable online, so there are no privacy concerns.
