The NIST STD web site contains several resources for system developers. They include: Evaluation Tools, Pointers to Research Papers, and Data Resources.

Evaluation Tools:

NIST maintains a suite of tools to support the administration of the evaluation. The tools focus on evaluating the performance of systems as well as corpora resource preparation scripts.

Research Papers:

A central goal for the NIST STD project is to foster the development of an STD research community. The research papers page is a central repository for pointers to existing results and published papers on STD and related fields. The site is open to contributions from the community by contacting NIST.

Data Resources:

Data resources for the previous evaluation may be made available before the next evaluation is scheduled. The email list will be notified when it becomes available.
