 Contains approximately 1,800 files of mixed genre text in English, Arabic, and Chinese annotated for entities, relations, and events. This represents the complete set of training data in those languages for the 2005 Automatic Content Extraction (ACE) technology evaluation. The genres include newswire, broadcast news, broadcast conversation, weblog, discussion forums, and coversational telephone speech. The data was annotated by LDC with support from the ACE Program and additional assistance from LDC.

The objective of the ACE program was to develop automatic content extraction technology to support automatic processing of human language in text form.

In November 2005, sites were evaluated on system performance in five primary areas: the recognition of entities, values, temporal expressions, relations, and events. Entity, relation, and event mention detection were also offered as diagnostic tasks. All tasks with the exception of event tasks were performed for three languages, English, Chinese, and Arabic. Events tasks were evaluated in English and Chinese only. This release comprises the official training data for these evaluation tasks.
