Before revision:  DART consists of 82, 191 examples across different domains with each input being a semantic RDF triple set derived from data records in tables and the tree ontology of the schema, annotated with sentence descriptions that cover all facts in the triple set. This hierarchical, structured format with its open-domain nature differentiates DART from other existing table-to-text corpora. We conduct an analysis of DART on several state-of-the-art text generation models, showing that it introduces new and interesting challenges compared to existing datasets.
After revision:  DART consists of 82, 191 examples across different domains with each input being a semantic RDF triple set derived from data records in tables and contain nontrivial structures. To this end, we propose a procedure of extracting semantic triples from tables that encodes their structures by exploiting the semantic dependencies among table headers and the table title. Our dataset construction framework effectively merged heterogeneous sources from open domain semantic parsing and dialogue-act-based meaning representation tasks by utilizing techniques such as: tree ontology annotation, question-answer pair to declarative sentence conversion, and predicate unification, all with minimum post-editing. We present systematic evaluation on DART as well as new state-of-the-art text generation models, showing that it introduces new and interesting challenges compared to existing datasets.
