We have generated the annotated (and normalized to NCBI Taxonomy) training and validation sets in 6 languages: English, Portuguese, Catalan, Italian, French, and Romanian. The process was:

  1. The text files were translated with a neural machine translation system.
  2. The annotations were translated with the same neural machine translation system.
  3. The translated annotations were transferred to the translated text files using an annotation transfer technology.

If you want to visualize the multilingual resources, check out this Brat server: https://temu.bsc.es/mLivingNER/#/translations/
For instance, you can see the parallel annotations in English vs in French, or in Spanish (the gold standard) vs in Italian.
