Abstract

The desideratum to bridge the unstructured and structured data on the web has lead to the advancement of a considerable number of annotation tools and the evaluation of these Named Entity Recognition and Entity Linking systems is incontrovertibly one of the primary tasks. However, these evaluations are mostly based on manually created gold standards. As much these gold standards have an upper hand of being created by a human, it also has room for major proportion of over-sightedness. We will demonstrate Eaglet (Available at https://github.com/AKSW/Eaglet), a tool that supports the semi-automatic checking of a gold standard based on a set of uniform annotation rules.
