Issue: Handling unlabeled datasets
State: closed
Author: nelson-liu

Hi!

Is there a way for datasets to produce unlabeled instances (e.g., the `ClassLabel` can be nullable).

For example, I want to use the MNLI dataset reader ( https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/master/datasets/multi_nli/multi_nli.py ) on a file that doesn't have the `gold_label` field. I tried setting `"label": data.get("gold_label")`, but got the following error:

```
  File "/home/nfliu/miniconda3/envs/debias/lib/python3.7/site-packages/datasets/load.py", line 748, in load_dataset
    use_auth_token=use_auth_token,

TypeError: '<=' not supported between instances of 'int' and 'NoneType'
```

What's the proper way to handle reading unlabeled datasets, especially for downstream usage with Transformers?

Comments:
Hi @nelson-liu,

You can pass the parameter `features` to `load_dataset`: https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/_modules/datasets/load.html#load_dataset

If you look at the code of the MNLI script you referred in your question (https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/master/datasets/multi_nli/multi_nli.py#L62-L77), you can see how the Features were originally specified. 

Feel free to use it as a template, customize it and pass it to `load_dataset` using the parameter `features`.

ah got it, thanks!
Issue: Field order issue in loading json
State: closed
Author: luyug

## Describe the bug
The `load_dataset` function expects columns in alphabetical order when loading json files.

Similar bug was previously reported for csv in #623 and fixed in #684.
## Steps to reproduce the bug

For a json file `j.json`,
```
{"c":321, "a": 1, "b": 2}
```
Running the following,
```
f= datasets.Features({'a': Value('int32'), 'b': Value('int32'), 'c': Value('int32')})
json_data = datasets.load_dataset('json', data_files='j.json', features=f)
```


## Expected results
A successful load.
## Actual results
```
File "pyarrow/table.pxi", line 1409, in pyarrow.lib.Table.cast
ValueError: Target schema's field names are not matching the table's field names: ['c', 'a', 'b'], ['a', 'b', 'c']
```

## Environment info
- `datasets` version: 1.8.0
- Platform: Linux-3.10.0-957.1.3.el7.x86_64-x86_64-with-glibc2.10
- Python version: 3.8.8
- PyArrow version: 3.0.0



Comments:
Hi @luyug, thanks for reporting.

The good news is that we fixed this issue only 9 days ago: #2507.

The patch is already in the master branch of our repository and it will be included in our next `datasets` release version 1.9.0.

Feel free to reopen the issue if the problem persists.
Issue: Dataset load_from_disk is too slow
State: open
Author: avacaondata

@lhoestq 
## Describe the bug
It's not normal that I have to wait 7-8 hours for a dataset to be loaded from disk, as there are no preprocessing steps, it's only loading it with load_from_disk. I have 96 cpus, however only 1 is used for this, which is inefficient. Moreover, its usage is at 1%... This is happening in the context of a language model training, therefore I'm wasting 100$ each time I have to load the dataset from disk again (because the spot instance was stopped by aws and I need to relaunch it for example). 

## Steps to reproduce the bug
Just get the oscar in  spanish (around 150GGB) and try to first save in disk and then load the processed dataset. It's not dependent on the task you're doing, it just depends on the size of the text dataset.

## Expected results
I expect the dataset to be loaded in a normal time, by using the whole machine for loading it, I mean if you store the dataset in multiple files (.arrow) and then load it from multiple files, you can use multiprocessing for that and therefore don't waste so much time. 


## Environment info
<!-- You can run the command `datasets-cli env` and copy-and-paste its output below. -->
- `datasets` version: 1.8.0
- Platform: Ubuntu 18
- Python version: 3.8


I've seen you're planning to include a streaming mode for load_dataset, but that only saves the downloading and processing time, that's not being a problem for me, you cannot save the pure loading from disk time, therefore that's not a solution for my use case or for anyone who wants to use your library for training a language model. 

Comments:
Hi ! It looks like an issue with the virtual disk you are using.

We load datasets using memory mapping. In general it makes it possible to load very big files instantaneously since it doesn't have to read the file (it just assigns virtual memory to the file on disk).
However there happens to be issues with virtual disks (for example on spot instances), for which memory mapping does a pass over the entire file, and this takes a while. We are discussing about this issue here: #2252 

Memory mapping is something handled by the OS so we can't do much about it, though we're still trying to figure out what's causing this behavior exactly to see what we can do.

Okay, that's exactly my case, with spot instances... Therefore this isn't something we can change in any way to be able to load the dataset faster? I mean, what do you do internally at huggingface for being able to use spot instances with datasets efficiently?

There are no solutions yet unfortunately.
We're still trying to figure out a way to make the loading instantaneous on such disks, I'll keep you posted
Issue: `datasets.keyhash.DuplicatedKeysError` for `drop` and `adversarial_qa/adversarialQA`

Issue: Remove task templates if required features are removed during `Dataset.map`
State: closed
Author: lewtun

This PR fixes a bug reported by @craffel where removing a dataset's columns during `Dataset.map` triggered a `KeyError` because the `TextClassification` template tried to access the removed columns during `DatasetInfo.__post_init__`:

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

# `yelp_polarity` comes with a `TextClassification` template
ds = load_dataset("yelp_polarity", split="test")
ds
# Dataset({
#     features: ['text', 'label'],
#     num_rows: 38000
# })

# Triggers KeyError: 'label' - oh noes!
ds.map(lambda x: {"inputs": 0}, remove_columns=ds.column_names)
```

I wrote a unit test to make sure I could reproduce the error and then patched a fix.

Issue: remove wi_locness dataset due to licensing issues
State: closed
Author: aseifert

It was brought to my attention that this dataset's license is not only missing, but also prohibits redistribution. I contacted the original author to apologize for this oversight and asked if we could still use it, but unfortunately we can't and the author kindly asked to take down this dataset.

Comments:
Hi ! I'm sorry to hear that.
Though we are not redistributing the dataset, we just provide a python script that downloads and process the dataset from its original source hosted at https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk

Therefore I'm not sure what's the issue with licensing. What do you mean exactly ?

I think that the main issue is that the licesenses of the data are not made clear in the huggingface hub – other people wrongly assumed that the data was license-free, which resulted in commercial use, which is against the licenses.
Is it possible to add the licenses from the original download to huggingface? that would help clear any confusion (licenses can be found here: https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/nl/bea2019st/data/wi+locness_v2.1.bea19.tar.gz)

Thanks for the clarification @SimonHFL 
You're completely right, we need to show the licenses.
I just added them here: https://huggingface.co/datasets/wi_locness#licensing-information

Hi guys, I'm one of the authors of this dataset. 

To clarify, we're happy for you to keep the data in the repo on 2 conditions:
1. You don't host the data yourself.
2. You make it clear that anyone who downloads the data via HuggingFace should read and abide by the license. 

I think you've now met these conditions, so we're all good, but I just wanted to make it clear in case there are any issues in the future. Thanks again to @aseifert for bringing this to our attention! :)

Thanks for your message @chrisjbryant :)
I'm closing this PR then.

And thanks for reporting @aseifert
Issue: Add Parquet loader + from_parquet and to_parquet
State: closed
Author: lhoestq

Continuation of #2247 

I added a "parquet" dataset builder, as well as the methods `Dataset.from_parquet` and `Dataset.to_parquet`.
As usual, the data are converted to arrow in a batched way to avoid loading everything in memory.

Comments:
`pyarrow` 1.0.0 doesn't support some types in parquet, we'll have to bump its minimum version.

Also I still need to add dummy data to test the parquet builder.

I had to bump the minimum pyarrow version to 3.0.0 to properly support parquet.

Everything is ready for review now :)
I reused pretty much the same tests we had for CSV

Done !
Now we're still allowing pyarrow>=1.0.0, but when users want to use parquet features they're asked to update to pyarrow>=3.0.0
Issue: Use `Audio` features for `AutomaticSpeechRecognition` task template
State: closed
Author: lewtun

In #2533 we added a task template for speech recognition that relies on the file paths to the audio files. As pointed out by @SBrandeis this is brittle as it doesn't port easily across different OS'. 

The solution is to use dedicated `Audio` features when casting the dataset. These features are not yet available in `datasets`, but should be included in the `AutomaticSpeechRecognition` template once they are.

Comments:
I'm just retaking and working on #2324. 😉 

Resolved via https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/pull/4006.

Issue: Add task template for automatic speech recognition
State: closed
Author: lewtun

This PR adds a task template for automatic speech recognition. In this task, the input is a path to an audio file which the model consumes to produce a transcription.

Usage:

```python
from datasets import load_dataset
from datasets.tasks import AutomaticSpeechRecognition

ds = load_dataset("timit_asr", split="train[:10]")
# Dataset({
#     features: ['file', 'text', 'phonetic_detail', 'word_detail', 'dialect_region', 'sentence_type', 'speaker_id', 'id'],
#     num_rows: 10
# })

task = AutomaticSpeechRecognition(audio_file_column="file", transcription_column="text")
ds.prepare_for_task(task)
# Dataset({
#     features: ['audio_file', 'transcription'],
#     num_rows: 10
# })
```

@SBrandeis @lhoestq i've integrated your suggestions, so this is ready for another review :)

Issue: Tokenizer's normalization preprocessor cause misalignment in return_offsets_mapping for tokenizer classification task
State: closed
Author: cosmeowpawlitan

[This colab notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/151gKyo0YIwnlznrOHst23oYH_a3mAe3Z?usp=sharing) implements a token classification input pipeline extending the logic from [this hugging example](https://huggingface.co/transformers/custom_datasets.html#tok-ner).

The pipeline works fine with most instance in different languages, but unfortunately, [the Japanese Kana ligature (a form of abbreviation? I don't know Japanese well)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kana_ligature) break the alignment of `return_offsets_mapping`:
![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/50871412/122904371-db192700-d382-11eb-8917-1775db76db69.png)

Without the try catch block, it riase `ValueError: NumPy boolean array indexing assignment cannot assign 88 input values to the 87 output values where the mask is true`, example shown here [(another colab notebook)](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1MmOqf3ppzzdKKyMWkn0bJy6DqzOO0SSm?usp=sharing)

It is clear that the normalizer is the process that break the alignment, as it is observed that `tokenizer._tokenizer.normalizer.normalize_str('ヿ')` return 'コト'.

One workaround is to include `tokenizer._tokenizer.normalizer.normalize_str` before the tokenizer preprocessing pipeline, which is also provided in the [first colab notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/151gKyo0YIwnlznrOHst23oYH_a3mAe3Z?usp=sharing) with the name `udposTestDatasetWorkaround`.

I guess similar logics should be included inside the tokenizer and the offsets_mapping generation process such that user don't need to include them in their code. But I don't understand the code of tokenizer well that I think I am not able to do this.

p.s.
**I am using my own dataset building script in the provided example, but the script should be equivalent to the changes made by this [update](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/pull/2466)**
`get_dataset `is just a simple wrapping for `load_dataset`
and the `tokenizer` is just `XLMRobertaTokenizerFast.from_pretrained("xlm-roberta-large")`

Issue: Fix dev version
State: closed
Author: lhoestq

The dev version that ends in `.dev0` should be greater than the current version.
However it happens that `1.8.0 > 1.8.0.dev0` for example.
Therefore we need to use `1.8.1.dev0` for example in this case.

I updated the dev version to use `1.8.1.dev0`, and I also added a comment in the setup.py in the release steps about this.

Fixed issue with parsing dataset labels. 

Comments:
@lhoestq, can you please review this PR?
What exactly is the problem in the test case? Should it matter?

Hi ! Thanks for fixing this :)

The CI fails for two reasons:
- the `pretty_name` tag is missing in yaml tags in ./datasets/turkish_product_reviews/README.md. You can fix that by adding this in the yaml tags:
```yaml
pretty_name: Turkish Product Reviews
```
- The test that runs the turkish_product_reviews.py file on the dummy_data.zip data returned 0 examples. Indeed it looks like you changed dummy_data.zip file and now it is an empty zip file. I think you can fix that by reverting your change to the dummy_data.zip file

Issue: Add summarization template
State: closed
Author: lewtun

This PR adds a task template for text summarization. As far as I can tell, we do not need to distinguish between "extractive" or "abstractive" summarization - both can be handled with this template.

Usage:

```python
from datasets import load_dataset
from datasets.tasks import Summarization

ds = load_dataset("xsum", split="train")
# Dataset({
#     features: ['document', 'summary', 'id'],
#     num_rows: 204045
# })

summarization = Summarization(text_column="document", summary_column="summary")
ds.prepare_for_task(summarization)
# Dataset({
#     features: ['text', 'summary'],
#     num_rows: 204045
# })
```


Comments:
> Nice thanks !
> Could you just move the test outside of the BaseDatasetTest class please ? Otherwise it will unnecessarily be run twice.

sure, on it! thanks for the explanations about the `self._to` method :)

@lhoestq i've moved all the task template tests outside of `BaseDatasetTest` and collected them in their dedicated test case. (at some point i'll revisit this so we can just use `pytest` natively, but the PR is already getting out-of-scope :))

The sklearn package is an historical thing and should probably not be used by anyone, see https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/issues/8215#issuecomment-344679114 for some caveats.

Issue: Raise FileNotFoundError in WindowsFileLock
State: closed
Author: mariosasko

Closes #2443 

Comments:
Hi ! Could you clarify what it fixes exactly and give more details please ? Especially why this is related to the windows hanging error ?

This has already been merged, but I'll clarify the idea of this PR. Before this merge, FileLock was the only component affected by the max path limit on Windows (that came to my notice) because of its infinite loop that would suppress errors. So instead of suppressing the `FileNotFoundError` that is thrown by `os.open` if the file name is longer than the max allowed path length, this PR reraises it to notify the user.
Issue: Documentation Mistakes in Dataset: emotion
State: closed
Author: GDGauravDutta

As per documentation,
Dataset: emotion
Homepage: https://github.com/dair-ai/emotion_dataset

Dataset: https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/master/datasets/emotion/emotion.py

Permalink: https://huggingface.co/datasets/viewer/?dataset=emotion

Emotion is a dataset of English Twitter messages with eight basic emotions: anger, anticipation, disgust, fear, joy, sadness, surprise, and trust. For more detailed information please refer to the paper.

But when we view the data, there are only 6 emotions, anger, fear, joy, sadness, surprise, and trust.

Comments:
Hi,

this issue has been already reported in the dataset repo (https://github.com/dair-ai/emotion_dataset/issues/2), so this is a bug on their side.

The documentation has another bug in the dataset card [here](https://huggingface.co/datasets/emotion). 

In the dataset summary **six** emotions are mentioned: *"six basic emotions: anger, fear, joy, love, sadness, and surprise"*, however, in the datafields section we have only **five**:
```
label: a classification label, with possible values including sadness (0), joy (1), love (2), anger (3), fear (4).
```

@GDGauravDutta the dataset author replied in their issue: https://github.com/dair-ai/emotion_dataset/issues/2
> The dataset released is a preprocessed six emotion variant released for educational and research purposes.

@albertovilla the dataset card was fixed with 6 emotions.
