Afaik, there is no built-in concept of annotation sets.

What people have done is, to create a new type e.g. "AnnotationSet" with =
a feature referencing all FSes in that annotation set. E.g. the =
U-Compare system includes support for such a concept.=20

there a concept like annotation sets in UIMA?
