Abstract

We report on the re-annotation of selected types of named entities from the Muc7 corpus where our focus lies on recording the time it takes to annotate these entities given two basic annotation units -- sentences vs. complex noun phrases. Such information may be helpful to lay the empirical foundations for the development of cost measures for annotation processes based on the investment in time for decision-making per entity mention.
