| Description: | *Introduction* Topic Detection and Tracking (TDT) refers to automatic techniques for finding topically related material in streams of data such as newswire and broadcast news. The TDT2 corpus was created to support three TDT2 tasks: find topically homogeneous sections (segmentation), detect the occurrrence of new events (detection), and track the reoccurrencce of old or new events (tracking). *Data* TDT2 Multilanguage Text Corpus Version 4.0 contains news data collected daily from nine news sources in two languages (American English and Mandarin Chinese), over a period of six months (January - June 1998). Both manually-created reference text and automatically- generated text (ASR and/or machine translation) are provided for all broadcast and all Mandarin data. This version has been prepared to complement the first general release of the TDT3 Multilanguage Text Corpus, providing new enhancements to make the data content more accessible to a broader research community.
