negationdataset's Introduction

NegationDataset

This repository provides annotations of negation scopes for 500 sentences from IMDb movie reviews. The dataset is labeled manually by two external persons (Annotator A and Annotator B). Each sentence contains at least one explicit negation phrase from the list of Jia et al. (2009). The labeled sentences can, for example, be used in machine learning models that aim at learning accurate negation scopes for sentiment analysis. Details are available from the following reference.
