NLM-Gene consists of 550 PubMed articles, from 156 journals, and contains more than 15 thousand unique gene names, corresponding to more than five thousand gene identifiers (NCBI Gene taxonomy). This corpus contains gene annotation data from 28 organisms. The annotated articles contain on average 29 gene names, and 10 gene identifiers per article. These characteristics demonstrate that this article set is an important benchmark dataset to test the accuracy of gene recognition algorithms both on multi-species and ambiguous data. The NLM-Gene corpus will be invaluable for advancing text-mining techniques for gene identification tasks in biomedical text.
