ArXi:2604.02904v1 Announce Type: new In this article, we present a gold-standard benchmark dataset for Biomedical Urdu Named Entity Recognition (BioUNER), developed by crawling health-related articles from online Urdu news portals, medical prescriptions, and hospital health blogs and websites. After preprocessing, three native annotators with familiarity in the medical domain participated in the annotation process using the Doccano text annotation tool and annotated 153K tokens. Following annotation, the proposed BioiUNER dataset was evaluated both intrinsically and extrinsically.
