[Corpora-List] Resources for evaluating term extraction

[Adam Kilgarriff]

Dear all,

The Sketch Engine now supports term extraction for many languages - and we
want to evaluate it.

For that, we need domain corpora in which somebody has gone through
identifying all the 'true' terms.  Then we can compute our system's
precision and recall.

We are aware of GENIA, for English, and are using that already (key

 2008: Z Zhang, J Iria, CA Brewster, F Ciravegna)

Any corpus with "the terms it contains", conscientiously produced, will
help us.

Pointers please!

Adam
