[Corpora-List] Resources for evaluating term extraction

Hi Adam,

In our previous work [1] done in the context of the Saffron project [2] 
we were interested in cross-domain evaluation of term extraction. 
Because we did not find other datasets similar to GENIA we relied on 
datasets annotated for keyphrase extraction [3] and index term 
assignment [4] which are more abundant.

Regards,
Georgeta
