It aims for fast and flexible coreference resolution and sophisticated named entity recognition evaluation, such as partial scores for partial overlap between gold and system mentions. CEAF, in particular, is much faster to calculate here than in the CoNLL-11/12 scorer. It boasts features such as configurable metrics; accounting for or ignoring cross-document coreference (see the evaluate –by-doc flag); plotting to compare evaluation by system, measure and corpus subset; and bootstrap-based confidence interval calculation for document-wise evaluation metrics.
