- **Total amount of disk used:** 88.59 MB
### Dataset Summary
A dataset cross-topic authorship attribution. The dataset is provided by Stamatatos 2013.
1- The cross-topic scenarios are based on Table-4 in Stamatatos 2017 (Ex. cross_topic_1 => row 1:P S U&W ).
2- The cross-genre scenarios are based on Table-5 in the same paper. (Ex. cross_genre_1 => row 1:B P S&U&W).
3- The same-topic/genre scenario is created by grouping all the datasts as follows.
For ex., to use same_topic and split the data 60-40 use:
train_ds = load_dataset('guardian_authorship', name="cross_topic_<<#>>",
split='train[:60%]+validation[:60%]+test[:60%]')
tests_ds = load_dataset('guardian_authorship', name="cross_topic_<<#>>",
split='train[-40%:]+validation[-40%:]+test[-40%:]')
IMPORTANT: train+validation+test[:60%] will generate the wrong splits because the data is imbalanced
* See https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/splits.html for detailed/more examples
