### Dataset Summary
Part-of-speech information is basic NLP task. However, Twitter text
is difficult to part-of-speech tag: it is noisy, with linguistic errors and idiosyncratic style.
This dataset contains two datasets for English PoS tagging for tweets:
* Ritter, with train/dev/test
* Foster, with dev/test
Splits defined in the Derczynski paper, but the data is from Ritter and Foster.
* Ritter: [https://aclanthology.org/D11-1141.pdf](https://aclanthology.org/D11-1141.pdf),
* Foster: [https://www.aaai.org/ocs/index.php/ws/aaaiw11/paper/download/3912/4191](https://www.aaai.org/ocs/index.php/ws/aaaiw11/paper/download/3912/4191)

### Languages

## Dataset Structure
### Data Instances
An example of 'train' looks as follows.
```
{'id': '0', 'tokens': ['Antick', 'Musings', 'post', ':', 'Book-A-Day', '2010', '#', '243', '(', '10/4', ')', '--', 'Gray', 'Horses', 'by', 'Hope', 'Larson', 'http://bit.ly/as8fvc'], 'pos_tags': [23, 23, 22, 9, 23, 12, 22, 12, 5, 12, 6, 9, 23, 23, 16, 23, 23, 51]}
```
### Data Fields
The data fields are the same among all splits.
#### twitter-pos
- `id`: a `string` feature.
- `tokens`: a `list` of `string` features.
- `pos_tags`: a `list` of classification labels (`int`). Full tagset with indices:
```python
```
