Dataset Card for IK-NLP-22 Project 1: A Study in Post-Editing Stylometry

Dataset Summary

This dataset contains a sample of sentences taken from the FLORES-101 dataset that were either translated from scratch or post-edited from an existing automatic translation by three human translators. Translation were performed for the English-Italian language pair, and translators' behavioral data (keystrokes, pauses, editing times) were collected using the PET platform.

This dataset is made available for final projects of the 2022 edition of the Natural Language Processing course at the Information Science Master's Degree at the University of Groningen, taught by Arianna Bisazza and Gabriele Sarti with the assistance of Anjali Nair.

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

The dataset contains four configurations: full, test_mask_subject, test_mask_modality, test_mask_time. full contains the main train split in which all fields are available. The other three, test_mask_subject, test_mask_modality, test_mask_time, contain a test split each with different fields removed to avoid information leaking during evaluation. See more details in the Data Splits section.

Data Fields

The following fields are contained in the training set:

Field	Description
`item_id`	The sentence identifier. The first digits of the number represent the document containing the sentence, while the last digit of the number represents the sentence position inside the document. Documents can contain from 3 to 5 semantically-related sentences each.
`subject_id`	The identifier for the translator performing the translation from scratch or post-editing task. Values: `t1`, `t2` or `t3`.
`modality`	The modality of the translation task. Values: `ht` (translation from scratch), `pe1` (post-editing Google Translate translations), `pe2` (post-editing mBART translations).
`src_text`	The original source sentence extracted from Wikinews, wikibooks or wikivoyage.
`mt_text`	Missing if tasktype is `ht`. Otherwise, contains the automatically-translated sentence before post-editing.
`tgt_text`	Final sentence produced by the translator (either via translation from scratch of `sl_text` or post-editing `mt_text`)
`edit_time`	Total editing time for the translation in seconds.
`k_total`	Total number of keystrokes for the translation.
`k_letter`	Total number of letter keystrokes for the translation.
`k_digit`	Total number of digit keystrokes for the translation.
`k_white`	Total number of whitespace keystrokes for the translation.
`k_symbol`	Total number of symbol (punctuation, etc.) keystrokes for the translation.
`k_nav`	Total number of navigation keystrokes (left-right arrows, mouse clicks) for the translation.
`k_erase`	Total number of erase keystrokes (backspace, cancel) for the translation.
`k_copy`	Total number of copy (Ctrl + C) actions during the translation.
`k_cut`	Total number of cut (Ctrl + X) actions during the translation.
`k_paste`	Total number of paste (Ctrl + V) actions during the translation.
`n_pause_geq_300`	Number of pauses of 300ms or more during the translation.
`len_pause_geq_300`	Total duration of pauses of 300ms or more, in milliseconds.
`n_pause_geq_1000`	Number of pauses of 1s or more during the translation.
`len_pause_geq_1000`	Total duration of pauses of 1000ms or more, in milliseconds.
`num_annotations`	Number of times the translator focused the texbox for performing the translation of the sentence during the translation session. E.g. 1 means the translation was performed once and never revised.
`n_insert`	Number of post-editing insertions (empty for modality `ht`) computed using the tercom library.
`n_delete`	Number of post-editing deletions (empty for modality `ht`) computed using the tercom library.
`n_substitute`	Number of post-editing substitutions (empty for modality `ht`) computed using the tercom library.
`n_shift`	Number of post-editing shifts (empty for modality `ht`) computed using the tercom library.
`bleu`	Sentence-level BLEU score between MT and post-edited fields (empty for modality `ht`) computed using the SacreBLEU library with default parameters.
`chrf`	Sentence-level chrF score between MT and post-edited fields (empty for modality `ht`) computed using the SacreBLEU library with default parameters.
`ter`	Sentence-level TER score between MT and post-edited fields (empty for modality `ht`) computed using the tercom library.
`aligned_edit`	Aligned visual representation of REF (`mt_text`), HYP (`tl_text`) and edit operations (I = Insertion, D = Deletion, S = Substitution) performed on the field. Replace `\\n` with `\n` to show the three aligned rows.

Train Split

The train split contains a total of 1170 triplets (or pairs, when translation from scratch is performed) annotated with behavioral data produced during the translation. The following is an example of the subject t3 post-editing a machine translation produced by system 2 (tasktype pe2) taken from the train split. The field aligned_edit is showed over three lines to provide a visual understanding of its contents.

Test splits

The three test splits (one per configuration) contain the same 120 entries each, following the same structure as train. Each test split omit some of the fields to prevent leakage of information:

In test_mask_subject the subject_id is absent, for the main task of post-editor stylometry.
In test_mask_modality the following fields are absent for the modality prediction extra task: modality, mt_text, n_insert, n_delete, n_substitute, n_shift, ter, bleu, chrf, aligned_edit.
In test_mask_time the following fields are absent for the time and pause prediction extra task: edit_time, n_pause_geq_300, len_pause_geq_300, n_pause_geq_1000, and len_pause_geq_1000.
