Tushe Science Split Chunks Min400 Dedup

This directory contains a processed chunk dataset derived from AlaminI/tushe-grade-school-stem.

Output

  • tushe_science_split_chunks_min400_dedup.json: JSON list of science-only source chunks.
  • tushe_science_split_chunks_min400_dedup_metadata.json: build metadata and counts.
  • README.md: this explanation.

How It Was Built

  1. Download/read the Hugging Face dataset snapshot for AlaminI/tushe-grade-school-stem.
  2. Read raw JSON files under the snapshot data/ directory.
  3. Drop math-related books when source_file, book_title, or parsed subject contains math.
  4. Treat each non-empty chapter as a parent instance.
  5. Normalize whitespace and exact-deduplicate parent chapter text.
  6. Tokenize with models/mistralai__Mistral-7B-v0.1.
  7. Drop parent instances below 400 Mistral tokens.
  8. Split each remaining parent into floor(parent_tokens / 400) even contiguous chunks. For example, a 2000-token parent becomes 5 chunks of about 400 tokens.
  9. Exact-deduplicate final child chunks by source_chunk.strip().

Key Counts

  • science non-empty chapters before dedup: 826
  • duplicate parent chapters removed: 244
  • parents dropped under 400 tokens: 101
  • parents kept: 481
  • duplicate child chunks removed: 493
  • final output chunks: 21,310
  • child token min/median/max: 400 / 401.0 / 798

Schema

Each row has metadata from the source book/chapter plus:

  • source_chunk: text to feed into QA generation
  • mistral_token_len: child chunk length
  • parent_mistral_token_len: original parent length
  • chunk_idx, num_chunks_from_parent, token_start, token_end: split provenance
