Abstract
- A high-quality domain-oriented dataset is crucial for the domain-specific named entity recognition (NER) task. In this study, we introduce a novel education-oriented Chinese NER dataset (EduNER). To provide representative and diverse training data, we collect data from multiple sources, including textbooks, academic papers, and education-related web pages. The collected documents span ten years (2012–2021). A team of domain experts is invited to accomplish the education NER schema definition, and a group of trained annotators is hired to complete the annotation. A collaborative labeling platform is built for accelerating human annotation. The constructed EduNER dataset includes 16 entity types, 11k+ sentences, and 35,731 entities. We conduct a thorough statistical analysis of EduNER and summarize its distinctive characteristics by comparing it with eight open-domain or domain-specific NER datasets. Sixteen state-of-the-art models are further utilized for NER tasks validation. The experimental results can enlighten further exploration. To the best of our knowledge, EduNER is the first publicly available dataset for NER task in the education domain, which may promote the development of education-oriented NER models.
