Abstract: this paper we describe a set of criteria
aimed at improving the quality of NLP evaluation studies, and
also discuss factors which contribute to the complexity of the
task. We present an overview of NLP evaluations in the clinical
domain and also discuss the Message Understanding
Conferences (MUC) [1-4], which were a series of NLP
evaluation studies performed outside of the clinical domain. (Update)

.... Evaluating a text knowledge acquisition system, however, poses tremendous methodological problems (for a discussion, cf. [Friedman Hripcsak, 1998]) The main reason being that a gold standard for comparison what constitutes a canonical, commonly agreed upon...
