KLUE NER Dataset - Fixed Converted Format

This dataset is converted from the original KLUE NER dataset with entity tags in the format <|B_LABEL|>entity<|E_LABEL|>.

Key improvements:

• Only valid NER labels are used: DT, LC, OG, PS, QT, TI
• Malformed labels are normalized (e.g., <23:39:TI> → <|B_TI|>23:39<|E_TI|>)
• Entity content is preserved exactly as in the original text
• Duplicate label prefixes are removed (e.g., <OG 부천지청:OG> → <|B_OG|>부천지청<|E_OG|>)

Dataset Structure

• train: 21,008 examples
• validation: 5,000 examples

Format Conversion

Original format: <entity:label> (with various malformed cases)
Converted format: <|B_LABEL|>entity<|E_LABEL|> (normalized)

Examples:

• <영동고속도로:LC> → <|B_LC|>영동고속도로<|E_LC|>
• <23:39:TI> → <|B_TI|>23:39<|E_TI|>
• <OG 부천지청 형사 2부:OG> → <|B_OG|>부천지청 형사 2부<|E_OG|>

Entity Tags Used

The following 6 standard NER entity tags are used:

• DT: Date (날짜) - Begin/End tags <|B_DT|> and <|E_DT|>
• LC: Location (위치) - Begin/End tags <|B_LC|> and <|E_LC|>
• OG: Organization (조직) - Begin/End tags <|B_OG|> and <|E_OG|>
• PS: Person (인물) - Begin/End tags <|B_PS|> and <|E_PS|>
• QT: Quantity (수량) - Begin/End tags <|B_QT|> and <|E_QT|>
• TI: Time (시간) - Begin/End tags <|B_TI|> and <|E_TI|>

Total number of unique entity tokens: 12

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("dkqjrm/klue-ner-fixed")
print("Source text:", dataset['train'][0]['source_text'])
print("Tagged text:", dataset['train'][0]['tagged_text'])

Fields

• source_text: Original sentence with entities (no tags)
• tagged_text: Converted sentence with <|B_LABEL|>entity<|E_LABEL|> format
• tokens: Original character-level tokens from KLUE
• ner_tags: Original NER tag indices from KLUE
