# Japanese-Roleplay-Dialogues

This is a dialogue corpus collected from Japanese role-playing forum (commonly known as "なりきりチャット(narikiri chat)"). Each record corresponds to a single thread.

For the `original` version, no filtering has been applied.

For the `filtered` version, the following filtering and cleaning conditions have been applied:
- If the number of unique `poster` types in the `posts` of each record is 1 or less, delete the entire record.
- If the length of the `posts` is 10 or less, delete the entire record.
- Normalize poster names by removing all whitespace characters (both full-width and half-width spaces).
- Retain only records where the top two posters account for 90\% or more of the total posts.
- Remove posts from posters outside the top two posters.
- Among the top two posters, neither should account for more than 60\% of their combined posts. (i.e., each of the top two posters should account for at least 40\% of their combined posts).
- Remove initial consecutive posts from the same poster until a different poster appears.
- Remove final consecutive posts from the same poster until a different poster appears.
- Merge consecutive posts from the same poster into a single post, separated by line breaks.

Not all dialogues are purely role-playing. Some records include initial discussions about the settings, or they may continue from other threads.

This dataset is intended for use in machine learning applications only.
