Gold standard annotation of epilepsy clinic letters for the development of information extraction tools

<p>This folder contains 200 synthetic letters, based on hospital outpatient epilepsy clinic consultations, written by neurology consultants, specialist trainees, and epilepsy specialist nurses. The letters were double annotated by trained researchers, according to annotation guidelines, uploaded separately (What and How of annotating with Markup). The 200 .ann annotation files are also included.</p> <p>We used Markup (https://getmarkup.com) for annotation (the configuration file is within the uploaded set of annotations) with an epilepsy concept list based on the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) ontology. All annotations were compared, reviewed, and corrected to form a gold standard annotation set.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
