TAC-KBP Belief and Sentiment – Comprehensive Training and Evaluation Data 2016-2017 includes all training and evaluation data developed by LDC for the Belief and Sentiment tracks: source documents (Chinese, English, and Spanish newswire and discussion forums); gold standard entity, relation, and event annotation; and belief and sentiment annotation.
The goal of the TAC-KBP Belief and Sentiment track was to provide information about beliefs and sentiments held by entities toward other entities, as well as toward events and relations. The gold standard set of labeled entities, relations, and events was used to create a system for automatically labeling belief and sentiment about each possible target (entity, relation or event) and for identifying the entity holding the belief or sentiment.
