-
Information resources like newspapers have produced unstructured text data in various languages related to the corona outbreak since December 2019. Analyzing these unstructured texts is time-consuming without representing them in a structured format; therefore, representing them in a structured format is crucial. An information extraction pipeline with essential tasks: named entity tagging and relation extraction to accomplish this goal might be applied to these texts. This study proposes a data annotation pipeline to generate training data from corona news articles, including generic and domain-specific entities. Named entity recognition models are trained on this annotated corpus and then evaluated on test sentences manually annotated by domain experts evaluating the performance of a trained model. The code base and demo are available at https://github.com/sefeoglu/coronanews-ner.git
