Datasets for Entity Recognition

This repository contains datasets from several domains annotated with a variety of entity types, useful for entity recognition and named entity recognition (NER) tasks.

Datasets for NER in English

The following table shows the list of datasets for English-language entity recognition (for a list of NER datasets in other languages, see below). The data directory contains information on where to obtain those datasets which could not be shared due to licensing restrictions, as well as code to convert them (if necessary) to the CoNLL 2003 format. Links to NER corpora in other languages are also listed below.
