21
+ In order to support research investigating the automatic resolution of word sense ambiguity using natural language
22
+ processing techniques, we have constructed this test collection of medical text in which the ambiguities were resolved
23
+ by hand. Evaluators were asked to examine instances of an ambiguous word and determine the sense intended by selecting
24
+ the Metathesaurus concept (if any) that best represents the meaning of that sense. The test collection consists of 50
25
+ highly frequent ambiguous UMLS concepts from 1998 MEDLINE. Each of the 50 ambiguous cases has 100 ambiguous instances
26
+ randomly selected from the 1998 MEDLINE citations. For a total of 5,000 instances. We had a total of 11 evaluators of
27
+ which 8 completed 100% of the 5,000 instances, 1 completed 56%, 1 completed 44%, and the final evaluator completed 12%
28
+ of the instances. Evaluations were only used when the evaluators completed all 100 instances for a given ambiguity.
