MESINESP: Post-workshop datasets. Silver Standard and annotator records

Please use the MESINESP2 corpus (the second edition of the shared-task) since it has a higher level of curation, quality and is organized by document type (scientific articles, patents and clinical trials).

The MESINESP (Spanish BioASQ track, see https://temu.bsc.es/mesinesp) Challenge was held in May-June 2020, and as a result of a strong participation and the manual annotation of an evaluation dataset, two additional datasets are released now:

1) "all_annotations_withIDsv3.tsv" contains a tab-separated file with all manual annotations (both validated and non-validated) of the evaluation dataset prepared for the competition. It contains the following fields:

• annotatorName: Human annotator id
• documentId: Document ID in the source database
•  decsCode: A DeCS code added to it or validated
• timestamp: When it was added
• validated: if it was validated at that point by another annotator, or not yet
• SpanishTerm: The Spanish descriptor corresponding to the DeCS code
• mesinespId: The internal document id in the distributed  evaluation file
• dataset: if part of the evaluation or the test sets
• source: which database it was taken from

Example:

annotatorName    documentId    decsCode    timestamp    validated    SpanishTerm    mesinespId    dataset    source
A7    biblio-1001069    6893    2020-01-17T11:27:07.000Z    false    caballos    mesinesp-dev-671    dev    LILACS
A7    biblio-1001069    4345    2020-01-17T11:27:12.000Z    false    perros    mesinesp-dev-671    dev    LILACS

2) A "Silver Standard" created from the 24 system runs submitted by 6 participating teams. It contains each of the submitted DeCS code for each document in the test set, as well as other information that can help ascertain reliability and source for anyone that wants to use this dataset to enrich their training data. It contains more that 5.8 million datapoints, and is structured as follows

• SubmissionName:  Alias of the team that submitted the run
• REALdocumentId: The real id of the document
• mesinespId:    The mesinesp assigned id in the evaluation dataset
• docSource: The source database
• decsCode: the DeCS code assigned to it by the team's system
• SpanishTerm: The Spanish descriptor of the DeCS code
• MiF: The Micro-f1 scored by that system's run
• MiR: The Micro-Recall scored by that system's run
• MiP:  The Micro-Precision scored by that system's run   
• Acc: The Accuracy scored by that system's run
• consensus: The number of runs where that DeCS code was assigned to this document by the participating teams (max. is 24)

Example:

SubmissionName    REALdocumentId    mesinespId    docSource    decsCode    SpanishTerm    MiF    MiR    MiP    Acc    consensus
