Dataset Card for Jigsaw Unintended Bias in Toxicity Classification

Dataset Summary

The Jigsaw Unintended Bias in Toxicity Classification dataset comes from the eponymous Kaggle competition.

Please see the original data description for more information.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

The main target for this dataset is toxicity prediction. Several toxicity subtypes are also available, so the dataset can be used for multi-attribute prediction.

See the original leaderboard for reference.

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

A data point consists of an id, a comment, the main target, the other toxicity subtypes as well as identity attributes.

For instance, here's the first train example.

Data Fields

• id: id of the comment
• target: value between 0(non-toxic) and 1(toxic) classifying the comment
• comment_text: the text of the comment
• severe_toxicity: value between 0(non-severe_toxic) and 1(severe_toxic) classifying the comment
• obscene: value between 0(non-obscene) and 1(obscene) classifying the comment
• identity_attack: value between 0(non-identity_hate) or 1(identity_hate) classifying the comment
• insult: value between 0(non-insult) or 1(insult) classifying the comment
• threat: value between 0(non-threat) and 1(threat) classifying the comment
• For a subset of rows, columns containing whether the comment mentions the entities (they may contain NaNs):
  • male
  • female
  • transgender
  • other_gender
  • heterosexual
  • homosexual_gay_or_lesbian
  • bisexual
  • other_sexual_orientation
  • christian
  • jewish
  • muslim
  • hindu
  • buddhist
  • atheist
  • other_religion
  • black
  • white
  • asian
  • latino
  • other_race_or_ethnicity
  • physical_disability
  • intellectual_or_learning_disability
  • psychiatric_or_mental_illness
  • other_disability
• Other metadata related to the source of the comment, such as creation date, publication id, number of likes, number of annotators, etc:
  • created_date
  • publication_id
  • parent_id
  • article_id
  • rating
  • funny
  • wow
  • sad
  • likes
  • disagree
  • sexual_explicit
  • identity_annotator_count
  • toxicity_annotator_count

Data Splits

There are four splits:

• train: The train dataset as released during the competition. Contains labels and identity information for a subset of rows.
• test: The train dataset as released during the competition. Does not contain labels nor identity information.
• test_private_expanded: The private leaderboard test set, including toxicity labels and subgroups. The competition target was a binarized version of the toxicity column, which can be easily reconstructed using a >=0.5 threshold.
• test_public_expanded: The public leaderboard test set, including toxicity labels and subgroups. The competition target was a binarized version of the toxicity column, which can be easily reconstructed using a >=0.5 threshold.
