Abstract

In this paper, we provide an overview of the Cheminformatics Elsevier Melbourne University (ChEMU) evaluation lab 2022, part of the Conference and Labs of the Evaluation Forum 2022 (CLEF 2022). The ChEMU campaign focuses on information extraction tasks over chemical reactions in patents. The ChEMU 2020 lab provided two information extraction tasks, named entity recognition and event extraction. The ChEMU 2021 lab introduced one more task, anaphora resolution. This year, we re-run all the three tasks with new test data. Together, the tasks support comprehensive automatic chemical patent analysis. Herein, we describe the resources created for these tasks and the evaluation methodology adopted...
