Point of Contact: Carlos Rodríguez-Penagos (carlos.rodriguez1@bsc.es)

Repository

https://github.com/TeMU-BSC/WikiCAT

Dataset Summary

WikiCAT_ca is a Spanish corpus for thematic Text Classification tasks. It is created automatically from Wikipedia and Wikidata sources, and contains 8401 articles from the Viquipedia classified under 12 different categories.

This dataset was developed by BSC TeMU as part of the PlanTL project, and intended as an evaluation of LT capabilities to generate useful synthetic corpus.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

Text classification, Language Model

Languages

ES- Spanish

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

Two json files, one for each split.

Data Fields

We used a simple model with the article text and associated labels, without further metadata.

Example:

{'sentence': 'La economía de Reunión se ha basado tradicionalmente en la agricultura. La caña de azúcar ha sido el cultivo principal durante más de un siglo, y en algunos años representa el 85% de las exportaciones. El gobierno ha estado impulsando el desarrollo de una industria turística para aliviar el alto desempleo, que representa más del 40% de la fuerza laboral.(...) El PIB total de la isla fue de 18.800 millones de dólares EE.UU. en 2007., 'label': 'Economía'}

Labels

'Religión', 'Entretenimiento', 'Música', 'Ciencia_y_Tecnología', 'Política', 'Economía', 'Matemáticas', 'Humanidades', 'Deporte', 'Derecho', 'Historia', 'Filosofía'

Data Splits

hfeval_esv5.json: 1681 label-document pairs
hftrain_esv5.json: 6716 label-document pairs

Dataset Creation

Methodology

La páginas de "Categoría" representan los temas. para cada tema, extraemos las páginas asociadas a ese primer nivel de la jerarquía, y utilizamos el resúmen ("summary" como texto representativo.
