Summary of the paper

Title ConanDoyle-neg: Annotation of negation cues and their scope in Conan Doyle stories
Authors Roser Morante and Walter Daelemans
Abstract In this paper we present ConanDoyle-neg, a corpus of stories by Conan Doyle annotated with negation information. The negation cues and their scope, as well as the event or property that is negated have been annotated by two annotators. The inter-annotator agreement is measured in terms of F-scores at scope level. It is higher for cues (94.88 and 92.77), less high for scopes (85.04 and 77.31), and lower for the negated event (79.23 and 80.67). The corpus is publicly available.
Topics Corpus (creation, annotation, etc.), Semantics, Grammar and Syntax
