Gold standard corpus, ontologies, and Entity-Quality ontology annotations for evolutionary phenotypes

<p>This data set includes a gold-standard corpus of evolutionary phenotype descriptions (in the form of character state descriptions pulled from a variety of phylogenetic systematics studies), and their corresponding expert-curated annotations with ontology terms in the form of Entity-Quality (EQ) statements. EQ annotatons allow machine-reasoning (through the semantics encoded in the requisite ontologies from which the ontology terms are drawn), and machine-reasoning in turn enables computing metrics for quantifying the semantic similarity between different phenotype descriptions as represented by their EQ annotations.</p> <p>Also included are the ontologies, and the human expert-generated and Semantic Charaparser&nbsp;(i.e., machine) generated EQ annotations used to assess Semantic Charaparser performance relative to inter-curator variation and to the effect of having access to external knowledge. The ontologies include those used as input, the &quot;augmented&quot; ontologies created by human curators in each experiment round, and the merged ontology used to maximize Semantic Charaparser&#39;s performance.</p> <p>The production of the gold standard corpus, annotation experiments, and evaluation of the results are described in detail in the following manuscript:</p> <blockquote> <p>Dahdul et al (2018) Annotation of phenotypes using ontologies: a Gold Standard for the training and evaluation of natural language processing systems. BioRxiv&nbsp;https://doi.org/10.1101/322156.&nbsp;Submitted to Database.</p> </blockquote> <p>The analysis code for evaluating the gold standard corpus (and the input data and ontologies for that) are available separately from the following:</p> <blockquote> <p>Manda et al (2018) Code and data for analysis of evolutionary phenotype ontology annotations and gold standard corpus. Zenodo. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1218010</p> </blockquote> <p>In comparison to the previous version (v1.0.0), this record includes a file of MD5 checksums of the Gold Standard data files. The data files themselves are unchanged.</p>
