		CoNLL-2000 made available training and test data for the Chunk task in English. 
		The data consists of the same partitions of the Wall Street Journal corpus (WSJ) 
		as the widely used data for noun phrase chunking: sections 15-18 as training data 
		(211727 tokens) and section 20 as test data (47377 tokens). The annotation of the 
		data has been derived from the WSJ corpus by a program written by Sabine Buchholz 
		from Tilburg University, The Netherlands. Both training and test data can be
		obtained from <ulink url="https://www.clips.uantwerpen.be/conll2000/chunking/">https://www.clips.uantwerpen.be/conll2000/chunking/</ulink>.

		"OntoNotes Release 4.0, Linguistic Data Consortium (LDC) catalog number
		LDC2011T03 and isbn 1-58563-574-X, was developed as part of the
		OntoNotes project, a collaborative effort between BBN Technologies,
		the University of Colorado, the University of Pennsylvania and the
		University of Southern Californias Information Sciences Institute. The
		goal of the project is to annotate a large corpus comprising various
		genres of text (news, conversational telephone speech, weblogs, usenet
		newsgroups, broadcast, talk shows) in three languages (English,
		Chinese, and Arabic) with structural information (syntax and predicate
		argument structure) and shallow semantics (word sense linked to an
		ontology and coreference). OntoNotes Release 4.0 is supported by the
		Defense Advance Research Project Agency, GALE Program Contract No.
		HR0011-06-C-0022.

		OntoNotes Release 4.0 contains the content of earlier releases -- OntoNotes
		Release 1.0 LDC2007T21, OntoNotes Release 2.0 LDC2008T04 and OntoNotes
		Release 3.0 LDC2009T24 -- and adds newswire, broadcast news, broadcast
		conversation and web data in English and Chinese and newswire data in
		Arabic. This cumulative publication consists of 2.4 million words as
		follows: 300k words of Arabic newswire 250k words of Chinese newswire,
		250k words of Chinese broadcast news, 150k words of Chinese broadcast
		conversation and 150k words of Chinese web text and 600k words of
		English newswire, 200k word of English broadcast news, 200k words of
		English broadcast conversation and 300k words of English web text.

	<para>
		The OntoNotes project builds on two time-tested resources, following the
		Penn Treebank for syntax and the Penn PropBank for predicate-argument
		structure. Its semantic representation will include word sense
		disambiguation for nouns and verbs, with each word sense connected to
		an ontology, and coreference. The current goals call for annotation of
		over a million words each of English and Chinese, and half a million
		words of Arabic over five years." (http://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2011T03)

		<title>Brat Format Support</title>
		<para>
			The brat annotation tool is an online environment for collaborative text annotation and
			supports labeling documents with named entities. The best performance of a name finder
			can only be achieved if it was trained on documents similar to the the documents it will
			process. For that reason it is often necessary to manually label a large number of documents and
			build a custom corpus. This is where brat comes in handy.

			<imagedata fileref="images/brat.png" width="6.5in" depth="4in" scalefit="1"/>

			OpenNLP can directly be trained and evaluated on labeled data in the brat format.
			Instructions on how to use, download and install brat can be found on the project website:

			<ulink url="http://brat.nlplab.org">http://brat.nlplab.org</ulink>

			Configuration of brat, including setting up the different entities and relations can be found at:

			<ulink url="http://brat.nlplab.org/configuration.html">http://brat.nlplab.org/configuration.html</ulink>

		</para>


		<section id="tools.corpora.brat.webtool">
			<title>Sentences and Tokens</title>
			<para>
				The brat annotation tool only adds named entity spans to the data and doesn't provide information
				about tokens and sentences. To train the name finder this information is required. By default it
				is assumed that each line is a sentence and that tokens are whitespace separated. This can be
				adjusted by providing a custom sentence detector and optional also a tokenizer.

				The opennlp brat command supports the following arguments for providing custom sentence detector
				and tokenizer.

				<simplelist type='horiz' columns='1'>
					<member><para>-sentenceDetectorModel - your sentence model</para></member>
					<member><para>-tokenizerModel - your tokenizer model</para></member>
					<member><para>-ruleBasedTokenizer - simple | whitespace</para></member>
				</simplelist>

			<title>Training</title>
			<para>
				To train your namefinder model using your brat annotated files you can either use the opennlp command
				line tool or call opennlp.tools.cmdline.CLI main class from your preferred IDE.

				Calling opennlp TokenNameFinder.brat without arguments gives you a list of all the arguments you can use.
				Obviously some combinations are not valid. E.g. you should not provide a token model and also define
				a rule based tokenizer.

			<title>Evaluation</title>
			<para>
				To evaluate you name finder model opennlp provides an evaluator that works with your brat
				annotated data. Normally you would partition your data in a training set and a test set e.g. 70%
				training and 30% test.
				The training set is of cause only used for training the model and should never be used for
				evaluation. The test set is only used for evaluation. In order to avoid overfitting, it is preferable if the training set and
				test set is somewhat balanced so that both sets represents a broad variety of the entities
				it should be able to identify. Shuffling the data before splitting is most likely sufficient in many cases.

				You can also use the cross validation to evaluate you model. This can come in handy when you do
				not have enough data to divide it into a proper training and test set.
				Running cross validation with the misclassified attribute set to true can also be helpful because it
				will identify missed annotations as they will pop up as false positives in the text output.
