# PHEE validation data
## Dataset Description
This dataset contains sentences derived from medical case report abstracts
curated for adverse events. Split data and CoNLL formatting allows for the
**training of language models**, for **named entity recognition.** The dataset
includes entity annotations or labels. This subsect is the validation split.
The creation of the original PHEE dataset is detailed at:

---
## Intended Use
### Primary Use
- Supervised NER training for biomedical NLP tasks
### Not Intended For
- Clinical or patient-level decision making
---
## Dataset Structure
- **Language:** English
- **Splits:** Train / Test / Validation
- **Features:** Text field, BIO label
- **Labels:** Adev ~ 'Adverse Event'
---
## Preprocessing
- Sentence-level segmentation is enforced
- Annotations carried out by 15 annotators in data's original creation
- Present dataset split into train / test / val
- Present dataset labeled in the IOB CoNLL format
---
## Limitations
- Relatively small corpus size compared to large-scale pretraining datasets
- Specific to medical case report abstracts only
---
## Ethical Considerations
- All content originates from publicly available, open-access scientific datasets
- No personal, clinical, or identifiable patient information is included
