MAPA Maltese
Named-Entity Recognition dataset from the MAPA Project.
This dataset has some fixes as detailed in Cross-Lingual Transfer from Related Languages: Treating Low-Resource Maltese as Multilingual Code-Switching:
Manually fixed some inconsistencies between Level 1 & Level 2 tags.
Manually added the labels for some spans which were marked as entity spans but didn't have the tags.
Manually fixed incorrectly marked spans with respect to tokenisation (either having a sub-word… See the full description on the dataset page: https://huggingface.co/datasets/MLRS/mapa_maltese.maltese-speech-datasetMaltese_sentimentmaltese_sa
