BioCreAtIvE (A critical assessment of text mining methods in molecular biology) consists in a community-wide effort for evaluating information extraction and text mining developments in the biological domain.[1]

It was preceded by the Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (KDD) Challenge Cup for detection of gene mentions.[2]
