Tasks alignment with models
Opened by lhoestq (closed)

I updated our `tasks.json` file with the new task taxonomy that is aligned with models.

The rule that defines a task is the following:

**Two tasks are different if and only if the steps of their pipelines** are different, i.e. if they can’t reasonably be implemented using the same coherent code (level of granularity/complexity of the code to be defined - ideally I’d like to say “HF user’s level”) - this is the same definition in `transformers` 

I will update the tags of all the datasets in this repository [in another PR](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/pull/4067) for readability.

Main changes:
- conditional-text-generation is split between summarization, translation, text-generation and text2text-generation
- speech-processing is split into automatic-speech-recognition, audio-classification, etc.
- structure-prediction is renamed token-classification
- abstractive-qa now belongs to text2text-generation

Here is just a simplified YAML dump of `tasks.json`:

Feel free to comment and give suggestions, especially if you think we can also align this list with other projects

Comments:
_The documentation is not available anymore as the PR was closed or merged._

Yay! This is exciting! Note that we would probably be able to generate this JSON directly from `huggingface/hub-docs`' `Types.ts` file (cc @osanseviero)

The following issue should make this much easier :smile: https://github.com/huggingface/hub-docs/issues/83

So far I think I've addressed all the comments that I got on slack, but feel free to do a review @osanseviero and let me know if it sounds good to you

It just occurred to me that we should probably restart the `datasets-tagging` space once this is merged to update all the task categories there: https://huggingface.co/spaces/huggingface/datasets-tagging

Yes, let me update it now
