Abstract
Summary This paper explores the adaptation of the PubAnnotation model with recent more general proposals for the representation of annotations in the Semantic Web, referred to here as the Open Annotation model and the focus of the W3C Web Annotation Working Group. We argue that interoperability with standards under development for text annotation on the web, and with recent proposals related to nanopublications, will have benefits for the use and consistency of linguistically annotated text corpora.
Highlights
Formal annotation of language data is an activity that dates back at least to the classic work of Kucera and Francis on the Brown Corpus [1]
We propose the adoption of general semantic web-oriented annotation proposals for text annotation in the context of text corpora intended for use in developing Biomedical Natural Language Processing (BioNLP) solutions
We propose a representation of an annotated corpus in terms of the data models under development in the broader scholarly annotation community, and develop a translator from the existing PubAnnotation JSON format to the Open Annotation model
