## Dataset Description

- **Homepage:** [NB AiLab](https://ai.nb.no/)
- **Repository:** [Norwegian PAWS-X Repository](#)
- **Point of Contact:** [ai-lab@nb.no](mailto:ai-lab@nb.no)

### Dataset Summary

Norwegian PAWS-X is an extension of the PAWS-X dataset. PAWS-X is a multilingual version of PAWS (Paraphrase Adversaries from Word Scrambling) for six languages. The Norwegian PAWS-X dataset has machine-translated versions of the original PAWS-X dataset into Norwegian Bokmål and Nynorsk.

### Languages

- Norwegian Bokmål (`nb`)
- Norwegian Nynorsk (`nn`)

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

Each instance includes a pair of sentences in Norwegian along with a binary label indicating whether the sentences are paraphrases of each other.

### Data Fields

- `id`: An identifier for each example (int32)
- `sentence1`: The first sentence in Norwegian (string)
- `sentence2`: The second sentence in Norwegian (string)
- `label`: Binary label, where '1' indicates the sentences are paraphrases and '0' indicates they are not (class_label: '0', '1')

### Data Splits

The dataset is divided into training, validation, and test sets. The exact numbers of instances in each split will be as per the original PAWS-X dataset.

## Dataset Creation

### Curation Rationale

Norwegian PAWS-X was created to extend the PAWS paraphrase identification task to the Norwegian language, including both Bokmål and Nynorsk standards. This promotes multilingual and cross-lingual research in paraphrase identification.

### Source Data

The source data consists of human-translated PAWS pairs in six languages. For the Norwegian PAWS-X dataset, these pairs were translated into Norwegian Bokmål and Nynorsk using FAIR’s No Language Left Behind 3.3B parameters model.

### Annotations

The dataset retains the original PAWS labels, which were created through a combination of expert and machine-generated annotations.

### Personal and Sensitive Information

There is no known personal or sensitive information in this dataset.

## Considerations for Using the Data

### Social Impact of Dataset

This dataset helps in promoting the development of NLP technologies in Norwegian.

### Other Known Limitations

There may be potential issues related to the translation quality, as the translations were generated using a machine translation model.

## Additional Information

### Dataset Curators

The dataset was curated by researcher Javier de la Rosa.
