# The Pile -- FreeLaw (refined by Data-Juicer)

A refined version of FreeLaw dataset in The Pile by [Data-Juicer](https://github.com/alibaba/data-juicer). Removing some "bad" samples from the original dataset to make it higher-quality.

This dataset is usually used to pretrain a Large Language Model.

**Notice**: Here is a small subset for previewing. The whole dataset is available [here](https://dail-wlcb.oss-cn-wulanchabu.aliyuncs.com/LLM_data/our_refined_datasets/pretraining/the-pile-freelaw-refine-result.jsonl) (About 45GB).

## Dataset Information

- Number of samples: 2,942,612 (Keep ~82.61% from the original dataset)
