## Dataset Description
- **Homepage:** [Big Patent](https://evasharma.github.io/bigpatent/)
- **Repository:**
- **Paper:** [BIGPATENT: A Large-Scale Dataset for Abstractive and Coherent Summarization](https://arxiv.org/abs/1906.03741)
- **Leaderboard:**
- **Point of Contact:** [Lu Wang](mailto:wangluxy@umich.edu)
### 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
Current defaults are 2.1.2 version (fix update to cased raw strings) and 'all' CPC codes:
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("big_patent") # default is 'all' CPC codes
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", "all") # the same as above
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", "a") # only 'a' CPC codes
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", codes=["a", "b"])
```
To use 1.0.0 version (lower cased tokenized words), pass both parameters `codes` and `version`:
```python
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", codes="all", version="1.0.0")
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", codes="a", version="1.0.0")
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", codes=["a", "b"], version="1.0.0")
```
### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

### 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.
```
{
'description': 'FIELD OF THE INVENTION \n [0001] This invention relates to novel calcium phosphate-coated implantable medical devices and processes of making same. The unique calcium-phosphate coated implantable medical devices minimize...',
'abstract': 'This invention relates to novel calcium phosphate-coated implantable medical devices...'
}
```
### Data Fields
- `description`: detailed description of patent.
- `abstract`: Patent abastract.
