# Dataset description
  
This dataset was created for fine-tuning the model [robbert-base-v2-NER-NL-legislation-refs](https://huggingface.co/romjansen/robbert-base-v2-NER-NL-legislation-refs) and consists of 512 token long examples which each contain one or more legislation references. These examples were created from a weakly labelled corpus of Dutch case law which was scraped from [Linked Data Overheid](https://linkeddata.overheid.nl/), pre-tokenized and labelled ([biluo_tags_from_offsets](https://spacy.io/api/top-level#biluo_tags_from_offsets)) through [spaCy](https://spacy.io/) and further tokenized through applying Hugging Face's [AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/model_doc/auto#transformers.AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained) for [pdelobelle/robbert-v2-dutch-base](https://huggingface.co/pdelobelle/robbert-v2-dutch-base)'s tokenizer.
