Dataset Summary

The present dataset is a result of processing the IBM Debater Claim Stance Dataset to create representative samples. The size has been reduced to roughly 100 entries, enabling the benchmarking of models for relation-based argument mining tasks with limited resources.

The sample also modifies the original dataset to achieve a more balanced plurality of stances and topics, and creates a new "unrelated" class in argument relation (following a simple rule-based data augmentation algorithm). Further details on the preprocessing can be found on GitHub.

Dataset Structure

• parent_argument - The first argument that states a position regarding a topic
• child_argument - Another argument that is compared to the parent argument
• relation - The argumentative relation of the child argument to the parent argument. It can either be support/attack in the binary split or support/attack/unrelated in the ternary split
