POPCORN: Fictional and Synthetic Intelligence Reports for Named Entity Recognition and Relation Extraction Tasks
Abstract
POPCORN is a research project aiming at maturing Information Extraction (IE) solutions for intelligence services. Due to defense security constraints, reports analyzed by intelligence services are not to be accessible to the scientific community. To address this challenge, we propose a dataset made of "fictional" (handcrafted) and "synthetic" (AI generated) French reports. Those synthetic reports are produced by an innovative approach that generates texts closely resembling real-world intelligence reports, facilitating the training and evaluation of IE tasks such as Entity and Relation Extraction. Experiments demonstrate the interest of synthetic reports to enhance the performance of IE models, showcasing their potential to augment real-world intelligence operations.
