[Corpora-List] Alias Detection Dataset

[Ayah Zirikly]

Dear Ralf,

Thank you very much for providing info regarding JRC-Named. It is actually
very helpful in the Named Transliteration task and can be used as extra
feature in my system. However what I am looking for is the following:
assuming we have:
John Smith went to school.
Peter loves school.
We are trying to check if John Smith and Peter represent the same named
entity or no.
The idea dataset will be annotated the following:
<e1>John Smith</e1> went to school.
<e1>Peter</e1> loves school.
<e2>Anna</e2> always comes late to classes unlike <e1>Peter</e1>.

Thanks again and I appreciate the help,

Ayah
