Andrew’s talk was very informative.

Andrew B. Clegg and Adrian J. Shepherd. 2005. Evaluating and Integrating Treebank Parsers on a Biomedical Corpus. 2005 ACL Software Workshop.

There’s actually a whole conference, LREC, devoted to language resources and evaluation.

Thanks for the link – I hope my series of posts is of interest to someone, somewhere.

For those who know NLP better than I do (a frighteningly low bar, alas), the stuff I’ve done should probably be seen as the product of a native informant. Imagine an Oxbridge anthropologist’s accent from decades past: “Ahh, so this is where they’re coming from over in the English department. Well, they do have a bit to learn, don’t they?”

But yes, I’ll certainly look into the NAACL workshop. Intimidating, but I’m happy to be someone’s case study :).
