<br>
We are proud to make this first public announcement of the brat rapid<br>
annotation tool, a free, open-source, web-based tool for text<br>
annotation visualisation and editing, available from:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://brat.nlplab.org/" target="_blank">http://brat.nlplab.org/</a><br>
<br>
brat is fully configurable and can support a wide variety of<br>
annotation tasks, including, for example:<br>
<br>
* entity mention ("named entity") annotation<br>
* binary relation annotation<br>
* dependency syntactic annotation<br>
* structured, n-ary event annotation<br>
<br>
The tool also provides annotation support features such as text and<br>
annotation search with detailed constraints, keyword-in-context<br>
concordancing, and integrated configurable checking of task-specific<br>
semantic constraints.<br>
<br>
brat is developed as a collaborative effort between several research<br>
groups as an open source project (MIT license), and we warmly welcome<br>
contributions and participation from the community, including feature<br>
requests.<br>
<br>
We hope this tool will prove valuable to the natural language processing<br>
community, and will gladly answer questions and welcome any feedback.<br>
<br>
brat will be presented at the EACL 2012 system demonstration session:<br>
