Title The Impact of Annotation on the Performance of Protein Tagging in Biomedical Text
Authors B. Alex, M. Nissim, C. Grover
Abstract In this paper we discuss five different corpora annotated forprotein names. We present several within- and cross-dataset proteintagging experiments showing that different annotation schemes severelyaffect the portability of statistical protein taggers. By means of adetailed error analysis we identify crucial annotation issues thatfuture annotation projects should take into careful consideration.
