Title The GeneReg Corpus for Gene Expression Regulation Events ― An Overview of the Corpus and its In-Domain and Out-of-Domain Interoperability
Authors Ekaterina Buyko, Elena Beisswanger and Udo Hahn
Abstract Despite the large variety of corpora in the biomedical domain their annotationsdiffer in many respects, e.g., the coverage of different, highly specializedknowledge domains, varying degrees of granularity of targeted relations, thespecificity of linguistic anchoring of relations and named entities indocuments, etc. We here present GeneReg (Gene Regulation Corpus), the result ofan annotation campaign led by the Jena University Language & InformationEngineering (JULIE) Lab. The GeneReg corpus consists of 314 abstracts dealingwith the regulation of gene expression in the model organism E. coli. Ouremphasis in this paper is on the compatibility of the GeneReg corpus with thealternative Genia event corpus and with several in-domain and out-of-domainlexical resources, e.g., the Specialist Lexicon, FrameNet, and WordNet. Thelinks we established from the GeneReg corpus to these external resources willhelp improve the performance of the automatic relation extraction engine JRExtrained and evaluated on GeneReg.
