The GENIA Corpus BIBREF3 contains biomedical abstracts from the PubMed database. We use GENIA technical term annotations 3.02, which cover linguistic expressions to entities of interest in molecular biology, e.g. proteins, genes and cells. CoNLL2003 BIBREF14 is a standard NER dataset based on the Reuters RCV-1 news corpus. It covers named entities of type person, location, organization and misc.

For testing the overall annotation performance, we utilize CoNLL2003-testA and a 50 document split from GENIA.
