# LivingNER

This is a third party reupload of the [LivingNER](https://temu.bsc.es/livingner/) task 1 dataset.

It only contains the task 1 for the Spanish language. It does not include the multilingual data nor the background data.

This dataset is part of a benchmark in the paper [A comparative analysis of Spanish Clinical encoder-based models on NER and classification tasks](https://doi.org/10.1093/jamia/ocae054).
