+# Dataset Card for "Intent Classification for Robot Assisted Disaster Response"
+
+<!-- Provide a quick summary of the dataset. -->
+
+This dataset consists of conversations recorded during the training sessions in the emergency response domain.
+The conversations are typically between several operators controlling the robots, a team leader and a mission commander.
+The data have been transcribed and annotated during the following projects: [TRADR](http://www.tradr-project.eu/) and [ADRZ](https://rettungsrobotik.de/home).
+The dialogues are split into turns and each turn is annotated with a speaker and intent.

+
+### Data Instances
+
+```
+{
+  'id': '1236',
+  'speaker': 'UAV',
+  'text': 'wir haben einmal den Akku gewechselt, bis jetzt noch kein Rauch festzustellen ...',
+  'label': 2
+}
+```
+
+### Data Fields
+
+```
+    id: the id of the dialogue turn, an `int` feature
+    speaker: the speaker of the turn, a `string` feature
+    text: the utterance of the turn, a `string` feature
+    label: the label of the turn, an `int` feature
+```
+
+### Data Splits
+
+This dataset contains 3525 dialogue turns in total. The data are split as follows: 2610 turns for training, 310 for development and 605 for test. The data represent a continuous conversation, i.e., the previous id refers to the previous turn in the dialogue.
+
+### Label Description and Statistics 
+
+| label | meaning | train | percentage | example |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| 0 | disconfirm | 35 | 1.3% | `Ist negativ, noch nicht.` |
+| 1 | order | 216 | 8.3% | `Für Sie Erkundungsauftrag: Gesamtüberblick über die Einsatzstelle. Kommen.` |
+| 2 | info_provide | 979 | 37.5% | `Ich verlasse das Erdgeschoss und gehe ins erste Obergeschoss.` |
+| 3 | info_request | 238 | 9.1% | `Frage: Erkundungsergebnis aus der östlichen Seite des Gebäudes, kommen.` |
+| 4 | call | 487 | 18.7% | `RobLW an Zugführer, kommen.` |
+| 5 | call_response | 370 | 14.2% | `Ja, hier ist Zugführer, kommen.` |
+| 6 | other | 43 | 1.7% | `Einen Augenblick, ich melde mich gleich.` |
+| 7 | confirm | 242 | 9.3% | `Ein Lagebild von oben, komplette Lage, und ein Lagebild zwischen den beiden Türen, verstanden.` |
+## Dataset Creation
+### Curation Rationale
+The dataset is based on the recordings from the emergency response domain that use radio communication protocol. The goal of the conversation is to coordinate rescue operations in a robot-assisted disaster response.
+### Source Data
+The data are based on human-human communication in robot-assisted disaster response. The dialogues are task-oriented, focused on collaborative execution of a mission by a team that uses robots to to explore some area, find hazardous materials, locate fires, damage or victims.
+#### Data Collection and Processing
+The initial audio recordings were collected during the [TRADR](http://www.tradr-project.eu/) and [ADRZ](https://rettungsrobotik.de/home) projects, transcribed and annotated by the [Talking Robots Group, DFKI](https://www.dfki.de/en/web/research/research-departments/multilinguality-and-language-technology/tr-team)   
+<!--#### Who are the source data producers?-->
+<!-- This section describes the people or systems who originally created the data. It should also include self-reported demographic or identity information for the source data creators if this information is available. -->
+### Annotations
+The annotations include dialogue intents relevant for communication in the emergency response domain: `call`, `call_response`, `info_request`, `info_provide`, `confirm`, `disconfirm`, `order` and `other`.
+
+Note the interpretation of the intent depends on the context. E.g., the following examples illustrate how very similar responses ("Warten", "Wait") are annotated differently depending on the previous turn:
+
+```
+(1) disconfirm
+    - Können wir weitermachen? (Shall we continue?)
+    - Warten. (Wait.)
+(2) confirm
+    - Hast du die Möglichkeit, das Fass näher zu identifizieren, was da drin ist? (Can you inspect the barrel closer to identify what is inside?)
+    - Ja, warten. (Yes, wait.)
+(3) order
+    - Werde aber jetzt auch mal die rückwärtige Seite des Fasses erkunden. (I will inspect now the back side of the barrel.)
+    - UGV 1, damit warten. (UGV 1, wait.)
+(4) other (pausing to check)
+    - Frage: kommen meine Fotos an? (Question: do you receive my photos?)
+    - Warten. (Wait.)
+```
+
+#### Annotation process
+
+<!-- This section describes the annotation process such as annotation tools used in the process, the amount of data annotated, annotation guidelines provided to the annotators, interannotator statistics, annotation validation, etc. -->
+
+The recordings were manually transcribed and annotated with emergency response intents. There are 3525 dialogue turns in total with 6.3 tokens per turn on average.  
+
+#### Who are the annotators?
+
+All annotations were done by the research assistants of the [Talking Robots Group, DFKI](https://www.dfki.de/en/web/research/research-departments/multilinguality-and-language-technology/tr-team)
+
+#### Personal and Sensitive Information
+
+<!-- State whether the dataset contains data that might be considered personal, sensitive, or private (e.g., data that reveals addresses, uniquely identifiable names or aliases, racial or ethnic origins, sexual orientations, religious beliefs, political opinions, financial or health data, etc.). If efforts were made to anonymize the data, describe the anonymization process. -->
+The dataset does not include any real names, addresses or other personal information. The recordings were done during training sessions with simulations of the emergency situation.
+
+## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
+
+<!-- This section is meant to convey both technical and sociotechnical limitations. -->
+
+The dataset covers only a subset of possible emergency situations, focusing mainly on fire, building collapse and chemical leakage. It does not address many other situations, e.g., traffic accidents, floods or explosions.
+
+<!--### Recommendations -->
+
+<!-- This section is meant to convey recommendations with respect to the bias, risk, and technical limitations. -->
+
+<!-- Users should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the dataset. More information needed for further recommendations. -->
+
+## Citation
+
+<!-- If there is a paper or blog post introducing the dataset, the APA and Bibtex information for that should go in this section. -->
+Part of this dataset has been introduced in the following paper. However, the current version includes more annotated turns due to additional data collection.

Our goal is to provide a recipe for building a system that performs dialogue act classification and domain-specific slot tagging while being efficient, flexible and robust. We show that adapter models Pfeiffer et al. (2020) perform well in the emergency response domain and benefit from additional dialogue context and speaker information. Comparing adapters to standard fine-tuned Transformer models we show that they achieve competitive results and can easily accommodate new tasks without significant memory increase since the base model can be shared between the adapters specializing on different tasks. We also address the problem of scarce annotations in the emergency response domain and evaluate different data augmentation techniques in a low-resource setting.",
