public class SetAnnotation
extends HashSet<Object>
implements Comparable<SetAnnotation>

Represents a set of categories that can be used as annotation type in a multi-labeling setting. That is, an annotation study allowing the raters to assign multiple elements from a given set of categories to the very same unit. An example is tagging summaries with multiple content units, as it done for the pyramid method (cf. Passonneau, 2006). Another example is relation anchoring (i.e., the task of finding the correct word senses of the source and the target of a semantic relation. In this setting, raters may assign multiple word senses to a relation endpoint (cf. Meyer & Gurevych, 2012).
