### Dataset Summary |
|
|
|
This release contains 1.3 million pairs of aligned text chunks (sentences or smaller fragments) |
|
from the official records (Hansards) of the 36th Canadian Parliament. |
|
|
|
The complete Hansards of the debates in the House and Senate of the 36th Canadian Parliament, |
|
as far as available, were aligned. The corpus was then split into 5 sets of sentence pairs: |
|
training (80% of the sentence pairs), two sets of sentence pairs for testing (5% each), and |
|
two sets of sentence pairs for final evaluation (5% each). The current release consists of the |
|
training and testing sets. The evaluation sets are reserved for future MT evaluation purposes |
|
and currently not available. |
|
|
|
Caveats |
|
1. This release contains only sentence pairs. Even though the order of the sentences is the same |
|
as in the original, there may be gaps resulting from many-to-one, many-to-many, or one-to-many |
|
alignments that were filtered out. Therefore, this release may not be suitable for |
|
discourse-related research. |
|
2. Neither the sentence splitting nor the alignments are perfect. In particular, watch out for |
|
pairs that differ considerably in length. You may want to filter these out before you do |
|
any statistical training. |
|
|
|
The alignment of the Hansards was performed as part of the ReWrite project under funding |
|
from the DARPA TIDES program. |
