Dataset Card for Financial-NER-NLP
Dataset Summary

The Financial-NER-NLP Dataset is a derivative of the FiNER-139 dataset, which consists of 1.1 million sentences annotated with 139 XBRL tags. This new dataset transforms the original structured data into natural language prompts suitable for training language models. The dataset is designed to enhance models’ abilities in tasks such as named entity recognition (NER), summarization, and information extraction in the financial domain.

The Financial-NER-NLP Dataset retains the financial domain’s specificity, focusing on numeric tokens and context-based tagging, while providing a more accessible and intuitive format for training natural language processing models.
Key Features:

    Natural Language Formatting: The dataset converts the original structured annotations into conversational prompts, making it suitable for training in a question-answering or dialogue-based format.
    Retains Financial Domain Focus: Preserves the emphasis on context-based tagging of numeric tokens, critical for financial document processing.

Supported Tasks

This dataset supports:

    Named Entity Recognition (NER): Identifying and classifying entities within financial text.
    Data Augmentation: Providing a rich source of natural language data for augmenting existing financial NLP datasets.

Languages

This dataset is compiled from English-language financial reports and maintains the language characteristics of the original dataset.
Acknowledgments
