- HAREM
HAREM is the first evaluation contest of
named entity recognition (NER) for Portuguese, and its call for participation was announced in September 2004. The contest proper happened in 14-16 February 2005, providing us with 15 runs by 10 participants (see complete list here), plus 3 extra-official runs (because they came outside schedule). The last results were published on the Web in October of the same year.HAREM stands for "HAREM é uma Avaliação de Reconhecedores de Entidades Mencionadas" (roughly "HAREM is a NER Evaluation").
HAREM's shared task was to detect, and correctly annotate, named entities in Portuguese texts, in several varieties, but most prominently including Brazilian and European Portuguese documents in several genres (newspaper, Web pages, original and translated fiction, transcribed oral interviews, etc.).
