# Clean ConceptNet Data for All Languages

## Data Details

For our project on [Retrofitting Glove embeddings for Low Resource Languages](https://github.com/pyRis/retrofitting-embeddings-lrls/tree/main?tab=readme-ov-file), we extracted all data from the [ConceptNet](https://github.com/commonsense/conceptnet5/wiki/Downloads) database for 304 languages. The extraction process involved several steps to clean and analyze the data from the official ConceptNet dump available [here](https://s3.amazonaws.com/conceptnet/downloads/2019/edges/conceptnet-assertions-5.7.0.csv.gz).

The final extracted dataset, available in another [HuggingFace repo](https://huggingface.co/datasets/DGurgurov/conceptnet_all), was used for training the graph embeddings using PPMI and consequently applying SVD on the co-occurence statistics of PPMI between the words.

We generate graph embeddings for 72 languages present in both CC100 and ConceptNet.

### Dataset Structure

Each file is a txt file with a word / phrase and corresponding embedding separated with a space.

Use the following function to read in the embeddings:

```python
def read_embeddings_from_text(file_path, embedding_size=300):
    """Function to read the embeddings from a txt file"""
    embeddings = {}
    with open(file_path, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as file:
        for line in file:
            parts = line.strip().split(' ')
            embedding_start_index = len(parts) - embedding_size
            phrase = ' '.join(parts[:embedding_start_index])
            embedding = np.array([float(val) for val in parts[embedding_start_index:]])
            embeddings[phrase] = embedding
    return embeddings
```
