TAC KBP 2012 Data

Data that are required for the TAC KBP 2012 tasks are distributed at no cost to track participants. Whenever possible, data are distributed by NIST or the Linguistic Data Consortium via Web download; data are mailed as physical disks only if they cannot be made available for download.

Access to TAC 2012 data is restricted to registered TAC 2012 participants who have submitted all the required User Agreement forms. Each participating team will provide a TAC 2012 Team ID and will receive a Team Password upon registration. Teams that have participated in past TAC cycles must register and obtain a new TAC 2012 Team ID and password for 2012. Teams must also submit new (current) User Agreement forms for 2012. Once the required User Agreement forms have been received for that team, NIST will activate the TAC 2012 Team ID and Password to give access to password-protected data distributed by NIST.

In addition to the KBP resources listed in the 2012 Text Analysis Conference (TAC) Knowledge Base Population Evaluation License Agreement, the following KBP 2012 evaluation resources have been distributed to KBP 2012 teams:
