What sections are used from training, development, and testing on the Penn Treebank?

This information comes courtesy of Nianwen Bert Xue:

The standard Dev set is Section 1 and the standard test set is Section 23. Most people don't use 24 and 25. Mitch's explanation, which I think is a plausible one, is that Section 23 is more "mature" annotation since it was done after the annotators had been well-trained, vs Section 00 where the annotators had just started learning to annotation.

  • Training: sections 02-22
  • Testing: section 23
  • Development: section 01
