                LLL05 Genic Interaction Extraction Challenge:
                      FULLY ANNOTATED DATA NOW AVAILABLE

                http://genome.jouy.inra.fr/texte/LLLchallenge/

    The LLL05 challenge task is to learn rules to extract protein/gene
    interactions from biology abstracts from the Medline bibliography
    database. All the training data is now available and contains the
    following information:

         * Annotation indicating agent and target of a gene interaction
         * A dictionary of named entities (including variants and synonyms)
         * Linguistic information: word segmentation, lemmatization and
         syntactic dependencies.

    The goal of the challenge is to test the ability of the participating
    IE systems to identify the interactions and the gene/proteins that
    interact. The participants will test their IE patterns on a test set
    with the aim of extracting the correct agent and target. The challenge
    task is associated with the 4th "Learning Language in Logic" workshop
    ( http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/aig/lll/lll05/ ). Results for this task are
    to be reported by the submission of a 4-page paper to the LLL05
    workshop.
