Dataset Information
Additional Information
The corpus was created for the task of automatic search for fragments containing biographical information in a text in a natural language. The corpus includes 200 Russian biographical articles (Wikipedia, 2018). Text pre-processing and selection included the following steps: - firstly, initial collection of texts was carried out automatically using open Python libraries; - we deleted short texts containing only years of a person’s life and a list of his places of work; - we have deleted all sections except the 'Biography' section. This is due to the fact that biographical articles on Wikipedia contain lists of awards, scientific works, works and other sections that are inconvenient for marking up. The corpus includes biographies of individuals whose main activity is related to one of the following areas: - military and law enforcement officers; - figures of culture and art; - figures of science, technology and education; - politicians and public figures; - entrepreneurs and managers; - religious figures.
