CDR

The BioCreative V CDR task corpus is manually annotated for chemicals, diseases and chemical-induced disease (CID) relations. It contains the titles and abstracts of 1500 PubMed articles and is split into equally sized train, validation and test sets. It is common to first tune a model on the validation set and then train on the combination of the train and validation sets before evaluating on the test set. It is also common to filter negative relations with disease entities that are hypernyms of a corresponding true relations disease entity within the same abstract (see Appendix C of this paper for details).
