Dataset Card for English to Kanji Diffusion

This dataset enables the conversion of English meanings into their corresponding Kanji characters, including generating SVG representations and converting these to various image formats for use in machine learning frameworks.

Dataset Details

Dataset Description

The English to Kanji Diffusion dataset is designed for image generation tasks where the input is an English word and the output is the corresponding Kanji character image. It includes parsed data from XML sources and processed images in SVG, PNG, and JPG formats.

  • Curated by: Sylvain Lapeyrade
  • Language(s) (NLP): English, Japanese (Kanji)
  • License: MIT License

Dataset Sources

Uses

Direct Use

This dataset is suitable for developing machine learning models specifically for text-to-image translation tasks, educational tools, and design applications that require the visual representation of Kanji characters based on English descriptions.

Out-of-Scope Use

The dataset is not designed for natural language processing tasks that involve understanding or generating human language text beyond the scope of translating single words to Kanji characters.

Dataset Structure

Dataset Fields

  • image: Contains the image file of the Kanji character in JPG format (can easily be made ot other format through the GitHub code).
  • text: Contains the English word corresponding to the Kanji character.

Splits

  • Train Split: Contains 6,413 examples, focusing on a diverse set of Kanji characters and their English meanings.

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

The dataset was created to facilitate the development of models capable of understanding the symbolic representation of Kanji characters based on English descriptions, aiding in educational and graphical applications.

Source Data

Data Collection and Processing

The data were collected from the KANJIDIC and KanjiVG projects, processed into SVG files, and then converted into image formats suitable for machine learning applications. The entire process emphasizes accuracy in the representation of Kanji characters.

Who are the source data producers?

The data is sourced from public Kanji character databases and projects dedicated to the dissemination and educational use of Kanji characters.

Annotations

Annotation process

The dataset does not contain annotations beyond the automated generation and labeling of images with corresponding English descriptions. Descriptions in other languages could have been possible as they are also in the XML file.

Who are the annotators?

The data and images are generated and labeled automatically using scripts designed for this purpose.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

The dataset does not comprehensively cover all Kanji characters and their nuances. Users should be aware of the dataset's focus on basic and commonly used Kanji characters. Also the phrasing "a kanji meaning..." is quite specific.
