Dataset Card for Climate Change NER 50S CliReNER
Dataset Summary
This dataset is a subsampled and reannotated version of the Climate Change NER dataset:
https://huggingface.co/datasets/ibm-research/Climate-Change-NER
It was created to align with the CliReNER schema introduced in our new paper ([TODO: add paper title and link]). Original annotated spans are preserved; only entity labels are reassigned.
- Language: English
- Task: Named Entity Recognition (NER)
- Domain: Climate and environmental science
- License: ODC-BY (inherited from the original dataset)
Dataset Creation
To ensure comparability with prior work, we subsampled the original dataset using the same strategy as for CliReNERgold:
- Each entity type has at least 50 occurrences.
- Original span boundaries are kept unchanged.
- Only labels are reassigned according to the CliReNER schema.
- No new spans were introduced.
All spans were manually mapped to the new schema categories based on their semantic definitions.
Entity Schema (CliReNER)
The dataset uses the CliReNER entity taxonomy.
[TODO: Insert concise schema description or link to paper section]
Dataset Structure
The dataset follows standard BIO tagging:
- Each document starts with
-DOCSTART-and a unique identifier. - One token per line.
- BIO labels (
B-,I-,O). - At most one entity type per token.
Example:
[TODO]
Data Splits
| Split | Number of Instances |
|---|---|
| Train | 60 |
Intended Uses
- Evaluation of climate-focused NER systems
- Cross-dataset schema harmonization
- Transfer learning experiments
Limitations
- Subsampled from the original dataset.
- Span boundaries reflect the original annotation guidelines.
- Limited to scientific abstracts.
