OntoNotes: the 90% solution

Published:04 June 2006Publication History

ABSTRACT

We describe the OntoNotes methodology and its result, a large multilingual richly-annotated corpus constructed at 90% interannotator agreement. An initial portion (300K words of English newswire and 250K words of Chinese newswire) will be made available to the community during 2007.
