Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

To gather our auditor evaluations into one dataset. Previous attempts using off-the-shelf sentiment had only 70% F1, this dataset was an attempt to improve upon that performance.

Source Data

Initial Data Collection and Normalization

The corpus used in this paper is made out of English news reports.

Who are the source language producers?

The source data was written by various auditors.

Annotations

Annotation process

This release of the auditor reviews covers a collection of 4840 sentences. The selected collection of phrases was annotated by 16 people with adequate background knowledge on financial markets. The subset here is where inter-annotation agreement was greater than 75%.

Who are the annotators?

They were pulled from the SME list, names are held by sue@demo.org

Personal and Sensitive Information

There is no personal or sensitive information in this dataset.

Considerations for Using the Data

Social Impact of Dataset

Discussion of Biases

All annotators were from the same institution and so interannotator agreement should be understood with this taken into account.
