[Corpora-List] Release of SemEval2010-Task1 datasets (Coreference Resolution in Multiple Languages)

[Marta Recasens]

We are pleased to announce the release of the SemEval2010-Task1 datasets for coreference resolution in multiple languages including Catalan, Dutch, German, Italian, and Spanish. The English data will be released by LDC early 2011.

The data is now freely available for downloading from the task website, at http://stel.ub.edu/semeval2010-coref/download/

General formatting is shared by all languages and is inspired by the previous CoNLL shared tasks (2008/2009 editions: http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/conll2009-st). The data are displayed in a uniform column-based format with information about coreference, lemma, PoS, morphological features, head, dependency relations, NEs, and semantic dependencies. Both gold-standard and automatically predicted information are provided (availability depending on the language). The existence of gold and automatic preprocessing as well as of already published results makes it an ideal resource for training and testing coreference resolution systems, especially when cross-language portability is to be achieved.
