### Dataset Summary
BIGPATENT, consisting of 1.3 million records of U.S. patent documents along with human written abstractive summaries. Each US patent application is filed under a Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) code. There are nine such classification categories:
- A (Human Necessities)
- B (Performing Operations; Transporting)
- C (Chemistry; Metallurgy)
- D (Textiles; Paper)
- E (Fixed Constructions)
- F (Mechanical Engineering; Lightning; Heating; Weapons; Blasting)
- G (Physics)
- H (Electricity)
- Y (General tagging of new or cross-sectional technology)
### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
[More Information Needed]
### Languages
English
## Dataset Structure
### Data Instances
Each instance contains a pair of `description` and `abstract`. `description` is extracted from the Description section of the Patent while `abstract` is extracted from the Abstract section.
### Data Fields
- `description`: detailed description of patent.
- `abstract`: Patent abastract.
