### Dataset Summary

This dataset is based on the content of the SourceData (https://sourcedata.embo.org) database, which contains manually annotated figure legends written in English and extracted from scientific papers in the domain of cell and molecular biology (Liechti et al, Nature Methods, 2017, https://doi.org/10.1038/nmeth.4471). The dataset was built to train models for the automatic extraction of a knowledge graph based from the scientific literature. The dataset can be used to train models for text segmentation, named entity recognition and semantic role labeling. The dataset is pre-tokenized with the `roberta-base` tokenizer.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

Tags are provided as [IOB2-style tags](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inside%E2%80%93outside%E2%80%93beginning_(tagging)).

`PANELIZATION`: figure captions (or figure legends) are usually composed of segments that each refer to one of several 'panels' of the full figure. Panels tend to represent results obtained with a coherent method and depicts data points that can be meaningfully compared to each other. `PANELIZATION` provide the start (B-PANEL_START) of these segments and allow to train for recogntion of the boundary between consecutive panel lengends.

`NER`: biological and chemical entities are labeled. Specifically the following entities are tagged:
- `SMALL_MOLECULE`: small molecules
- `GENEPROD`: gene products (genes and proteins)
- `SUBCELLULAR`: subcellular components
- `CELL`: cell types and cell lines.
- `TISSUE`: tissues and organs
- `ORGANISM`: species
- `EXP_ASSAY`: experimental assays

`ROLES`: the role of entities with regard to the causal hypotheses tested in the reported results. The tags are:
- `CONTROLLED_VAR`: entities that are associated with experimental variables and that subjected to controlled and targeted perturbations.
- `MEASURED_VAR`: entities that are associated with the variables measured and the object of the measurements.

`BORING`: entities are marked with the tag `BORING` when they are more of descriptive value and not directly associated with causal hypotheses ('boring' is not an ideal choice of word, but it is short...). Typically, these entities are so-called 'reporter' geneproducts, entities used as common baseline across samples, or specify the context of the experiment (cellular system, species, etc...).
