+
+### Dataset Summary 
+
+WebNLG is a bi-lingual dataset (English, Russian) of parallel DBpedia triple sets and short texts that cover about 450 different DBpedia properties. The WebNLG data was originally created to promote the development of RDF verbalisers able to generate short text and to handle micro-planning (i.e., sentence segmentation and ordering, referring expression generation, aggregation); the goal of the task is to generate texts starting from 1 to 7 input triples which have entities in common (so the input is actually a connected Knowledge Graph). The dataset contains about 17,000 triple sets and 45,000 crowdsourced texts in English, and 7,000 triples sets and 19,000 crowdsourced texts in Russian. A challenging test set section with entities and/or properties that have not been seen at training time is available.
+
+You can load the dataset via:
+```
+import datasets
+data = datasets.load_dataset('GEM/web_nlg')

+
+### Dataset Structure
+
+#### Data Fields
+
+<!-- info: List and describe the fields present in the dataset. -->
+<!-- scope: telescope -->
+See [official documentation](https://webnlg-challenge.loria.fr/docs/).
+
+
+`entry`: a data instance of the benchmark. Each entry has five attributes: a DBpedia category (`category`), entry ID (`eid`), shape, shape type, and triple set size (`size`).
+	
+- `shape`: a string representation of the RDF tree with nested parentheses where `X` is a node (see [Newick tree format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newick_format)).
+
+- `shape_type`: a type of the tree shape. We [identify](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/C16-1141.pdf) three types of tree shapes:
+    * `chain` (the object of one triple is the subject of the other);
+    * `sibling` (triples with a shared subject);
+    * `mixed` (both `chain` and `sibling` types present).
+- `eid`: an entry ID. It is unique only within a category and a size.
+- `category`: a DBpedia category (Astronaut, City, MusicalWork, Politician, etc.).
+- `size`: the number of RDF triples in a set. Ranges from 1 to 7.
+
+Each `entry` has three fields: `originaltripleset`, `modifiedtripleset`, and `lexs`.
+
+`originaltripleset`: a set of RDF triples as extracted from [DBpedia](https://wiki.dbpedia.org/). Each set of RDF triples is a tree. Triples have the subject-predicate-object structure.
+
+`modifiedtripleset`: a set of RDF triples as presented to crowdworkers (for more details on modifications, see below).
+
+Original and modified triples serve different purposes: the original triples — to link data to a knowledge base (DBpedia), whereas the modified triples — to ensure consistency and homogeneity throughout the data. To train models, the modified triples should be used.
+
+`lexs` (shortened for lexicalisations): a natural language text verbalising the triples. Each lexicalisation has two attributes: a comment (`comment`), and a lexicalisation ID (`lid`). By default, comments have the value `good`, except rare cases when they were manually marked as `toFix`. That was done during the corpus creation, when it was seen that a lexicalisation did not exactly match a triple set.
+
+Russian data has additional optional fields comparing to English:
+
+`<dbpedialinks>`: RDF triples extracted from DBpedia between English and Russian entities by means of the property `sameAs`.
+
+`<links>`: RDF triples created manually for some entities to serve as pointers to translators. There are two types of them:
+
+   * with `sameAs` (`Spaniards | sameAs | испанцы`)
+    
+   * with `includes` (`Tomatoes, guanciale, cheese, olive oil | includes | гуанчиале`). Those were mostly created for string literals to translate some parts of them.
+
+Lexicalisations in the Russian WebNLG have a new parameter `lang` (values: `en`, `ru`) because original English texts were kept in the Russian version (see the example above).

+23 special test sets for WebNLG were added to the GEM evaluation suite, 12 for English and 11 for Russian.
+For both languages, we created subsets of the training and development sets of ~500 randomly selected inputs each. The inputs were sampled proportionally from each category.
+
+Two types of transformations have been applied to WebNLG: (i) input scrambling (English and Russian) and (ii) numerical value replacements (English); in both cases, a subset of about 500 inputs was randomly selected. For (i), the order of the triples was randomly reassigned (each triple kept the same Subject-Property-Object internal order). For (ii), the change was performed respecting the format of the current cardinal value (e.g., alpha, integer, or floating-point) and replacing it with a new random value. The new number is lower-bounded between zero and upper bounded to be within to the highest power of 10 unit for the given value (e.g., replacing 54 would result in a random value between 0-100). Floating values maintain the degree of precision.
+
+For both languages, we did identify different subsets of the test set that we could compare to each other so that we would have a better understanding of the results. There are currently 8 selections that we have made:
+
+Selection 1 (size): input length. This selection corresponds to the number of predicates in the input. By comparing inputs of different lengths, we can see to what extent NLG systems are able to handle different input sizes.  The table below provides the relevant frequencies. Please be aware that comparing selections with fewer than 100 items may result in unreliable comparisons.
+
+| Input length   | Frequency English | Frequency Russian |
+|----------------|-------------------|-------------------|
+|              1 |               369 |               254 |
+|              2 |               349 |               200 |
+|              3 |               350 |               214 |
+|              4 |               305 |               214 |
+|              5 |               213 |               159 |
+|              6 |               114 |                32 |
+|              7 |                79 |                29 |
+
+
+Selection 2 (frequency): seen/unseen single predicates. This selection corresponds to the inputs with only one predicate. We compare which predicates are seen/unseen in the training data. The table below provides the relevant frequencies. Note that the comparison is only valid for English. Not for Russian, since there is only one example of unseen single predicates.
+
+| _ in training | Frequency English | Frequency Russian |
+|---------------|-------------------|-------------------|
+| Seen          |               297 |               253 |
+| Unseen        |                72 |                 1 |
+
+
+Selection 3 (frequency): seen/unseen combinations of predicates. This selection checks for all combinations of predicates whether that combination has been seen in the training data. For example: if the combination of predicates A and B is seen, that means that there is an input in the training data consisting of two triples, where one triple uses predicate A and the other uses predicate B. If the combination is unseen, then the converse is true. The table below provides the relevant frequencies.
+
+| _ in training | Frequency English | Frequency Russian |
+|---------------|-------------------|-------------------|
+| unseen        |              1295 |               354 |
+| seen          |               115 |               494 |
+
+
+Selection 4 (frequency): seen/unseen arguments. This selection checks for all input whether or not all arg1s and arg2s in the input have been seen during the training phase. For this selection, *Seen* is the default. Only if all arg1 instances for a particular input are unseen, do we count the arg1s of the input as unseen. The same holds for arg2. So "seen" here really means that at least some of the arg1s or arg2s are seen in the input. The table below provides the relevant frequencies. Note that the comparison is only valid for English. Not for Russian, since there are very few examples of unseen combinations of predicates.
+
+| Arguments seen in training? | Frequency English | Frequency Russian |
+|-----------------------------|-------------------|-------------------|
+| both_seen                   |               518 |              1075 |
+| both_unseen                 |              1177 |                 4 |
+| arg1_unseen                 |                56 |                19 |
+| arg2_unseen                 |                28 |                 4 |
+
+Selection 5 (shape): repeated subjects. For this selection, the subsets are based on the times a subject is repeated in the input; it only takes into account the maximum number of times a subject is repeated, that is, if in one input a subject appears 3 times and a different subject 2 times, this input will be in the "3_subjects_same' split. Unique_subjects means all subjects are different. 
+
+| Max num. of repeated subjects | Frequency English | Frequency Russian |
+|-------------------------------|-------------------|-------------------|
+| unique_subjects               |               453 |               339 |
+| 2_subjects_same               |               414 |               316 |
+| 3_subjects_same               |               382 |               217 |
+| 4_subjects_same               |               251 |               143 |
+| 5_subjects_same               |               158 |                56 |
+| 6_subjects_same               |                80 |                19 |
+| 7_subjects_same               |                41 |                12 |
+
+Selection 6 (shape): repeated objects. Same as for subjects above, but for objects. There are much less cases of repeated objects, so there are only two categories for this selection, unique_objects and some_objects_repeated; for the latter, we have up to 3 coreferring objects in English, and XXX in Russian.
+
+| Max num. of repeated objects | Frequency English | Frequency Russian |
+|------------------------------|-------------------|-------------------|
+| unique_objects               |              1654 |              1099 |
+| some_objects_same            |               125 |                 3 |
+
+Selection 7 (shape): repeated properties. Same as for objects above, but for properties; up to two properties can be the same in English, up to XXX in Russian.
+
+| Max num. of repeated properties | Frequency English | Frequency Russian |
+|---------------------------------|-------------------|-------------------|
+| unique_properties               |              1510 |               986 |
+| some_properties_same            |               269 |               116 |
+
+Selection 8 (shape): entities that appear both as subject and object. For this selection, we grouped together the inputs in which no entity is found as both subject and object, and on the other side inputs in which one or more entity/ies appear both as subject and as object. We found up to two such entities per input in English, and up to XXX in Russian.
+
+| Max num. of objects and subjects in common | Frequency English | Frequency Russian |

+
+#### Proposed Evaluation
+
+<!-- info: List and describe the purpose of the metrics and evaluation methodology (including human evaluation) that the dataset creators used when introducing this task. -->
+<!-- scope: microscope -->
+For both languages, the participating systems are automatically evaluated in a multi-reference scenario. Each English hypothesis is compared to a maximum of 5 references, and each Russian one to a maximum of 7 references. On average, English data has 2.89 references per test instance, and Russian data has 2.52 references per instance. 
+
+In a human evaluation, example are uniformly sampled across size of triple sets and the following dimensions are assessed (on MTurk and Yandex.Toloka):
+
+1. Data Coverage: Does the text include descriptions of all predicates presented in the data?
+2. Relevance: Does the text describe only such predicates (with related subjects and objects), which are found in the data?
+3. Correctness: When describing predicates which are found in the data, does the text mention correct the objects and adequately introduces the subject for this specific predicate?
+4. Text Structure: Is the text grammatical, well-structured, written in acceptable English language?
+5. Fluency: Is it possible to say that the text progresses naturally, forms a coherent whole and it is easy to understand the text?
+
+For additional information like the instructions, we refer to the original paper.

+## Broader Social Context
+
+### Previous Work on the Social Impact of the Dataset
+
+#### Usage of Models based on the Data
+
+<!-- info: Are you aware of cases where models trained on the task featured in this dataset ore related tasks have been used in automated systems? -->
+<!-- scope: telescope -->
+yes - related tasks
+
+#### Social Impact Observations
+
+<!-- info: Did any of these previous uses result in observations about the social impact of the systems? In particular, has there been work outlining the risks and limitations of the system? Provide links and descriptions here. -->
+<!-- scope: microscope -->
+We do not foresee any negative social impact in particular from this dataset or task.
+
+Positive outlooks: Being able to generate good quality text from RDF data would permit, e.g., making this data more accessible to lay users, enriching existing text with information drawn from knowledge bases such as DBpedia or describing, comparing and relating entities present in these knowledge bases.
+
+
+
+### Impact on Under-Served Communities
+
+#### Addresses needs of underserved Communities?
+
+<!-- info: Does this dataset address the needs of communities that are traditionally underserved in language technology, and particularly language generation technology? Communities may be underserved for exemple because their language, language variety, or social or geographical context is underepresented in NLP and NLG resources (datasets and models). -->
+<!-- scope: telescope -->
+no
+
+
+### Discussion of Biases
+
+#### Any Documented Social Biases?
+
+<!-- info: Are there documented social biases in the dataset? Biases in this context are variations in the ways members of different social categories are represented that can have harmful downstream consequences for members of the more disadvantaged group. -->
+<!-- scope: telescope -->
+yes
+
+#### Links and Summaries of Analysis Work
+
+<!-- info: Provide links to and summaries of works analyzing these biases. -->
+<!-- scope: microscope -->
+This dataset is created using DBpedia RDF triples which naturally exhibit biases that have been found to exist in Wikipedia such as some forms of, e.g., gender bias.
+
+The choice of [entities](https://gitlab.com/shimorina/webnlg-dataset/-/blob/master/supplementary/entities_dict.json), described by RDF trees, was not controlled. As such, they may contain gender biases; for instance, all the astronauts described by RDF triples are male. Hence, in texts, pronouns _he/him/his_ occur more often. Similarly, entities can be related to the Western culture more often than to other cultures.
+
+
+#### Are the Language Producers Representative of the Language?
+
+<!-- info: Does the distribution of language producers in the dataset accurately represent the full distribution of speakers of the language world-wide? If not, how does it differ? -->
+<!-- scope: periscope -->
+In English, the dataset is limited to the language that crowdraters speak. In Russian, the language is heavily biased by the translationese of the translation system that is post-edited.

+
+## Considerations for Using the Data
+
+### PII Risks and Liability
+
+#### Potential PII Risk
+
+<!-- info: Considering your answers to the PII part of the Data Curation Section, describe any potential privacy to the data subjects and creators risks when using the dataset. -->
+<!-- scope: microscope -->
+There is no PII in this dataset.
+
+
+### Licenses
+
+#### Copyright Restrictions on the Dataset
+
+<!-- info: Based on your answers in the Intended Use part of the Data Overview Section, which of the following best describe the copyright and licensing status of the dataset? -->
+<!-- scope: periscope -->
+`non-commercial use only`
+
+#### Copyright Restrictions on the Language Data
+
+<!-- info: Based on your answers in the Language part of the Data Curation Section, which of the following best describe the copyright and licensing status of the underlying language data? -->
+<!-- scope: periscope -->
+`public domain`
+
+
+### Known Technical Limitations
+
+#### Technical Limitations
+
+<!-- info: Describe any known technical limitations, such as spurrious correlations, train/test overlap, annotation biases, or mis-annotations, and cite the works that first identified these limitations when possible. -->
+<!-- scope: microscope -->
+The quality of the crowdsourced references is limited, in particular in terms of fluency/naturalness of the collected texts.
+
+Russian data was machine-translated and then post-edited by crowdworkers, so some examples may still exhibit issues related to bad translations.
+
+
+#### Unsuited Applications
+
+<!-- info: When using a model trained on this dataset in a setting where users or the public may interact with its predictions, what are some pitfalls to look out for? In particular, describe some applications of the general task featured in this dataset that its curation or properties make it less suitable for. -->
+<!-- scope: microscope -->
+Only a limited number of domains are covered in this dataset. As a result, it cannot be used as a general-purpose realizer.
