Table 5 F1 scores of the first-order models and the pi-CRF for each corpora. The first value (‘whole instance’) is F1 score with whole test set and the second value (‘distanced instance’) is F1 score evaluated only with instances having transition dependency between NEs. (bold: best performance, shaded: pi-CRF)
