File not found for audio dataset

### Describe the bug

After loading an audio dataset, and looking at a sample entry, the `path` element, which is supposed to be the path to the audio file, doesn't actually exist.


### Steps to reproduce the bug

Run bug.py:

```py
import os.path

from datasets import load_dataset

def run() -> None:
    cv13 = load_dataset(
        "mozilla-foundation/common_voice_13_0",
        "hi",
        split="train",
    )

    print(cv13[0])
    audio_file = cv13[0]["path"]
    if not os.path.exists(audio_file):
        raise ValueError(f'File {audio_file} does not exist.')

if __name__ == "__main__":
    run()
```

The result (on my machine):

```json
{'client_id': '0f018a99663f33afbb7d38aee281fb1afcfd07f9e7acd00383f604e1e17c38d6ed8adf1bd2ccbf927a52c5adefb8ac4b158ce27a7c2ed9581e71202eb302dfb3', 'path': 'C:\\Users\\rober\\.cache\\huggingface\\datasets\\downloads\\extracted\\8d1479bc09b4609bc2675bd02d6869a4d5e09f7e6616f540bd55eacef46c6e2b\\common_voice_hi_26008353.mp3', 'audio': {'path': 'C:\\Users\\rober\\.cache\\huggingface\\datasets\\downloads\\extracted\\8d1479bc09b4609bc2675bd02d6869a4d5e09f7e6616f540bd55eacef46c6e2b\\common_voice_hi_26008353.mp3', 'array': array([ 6.46234854e-26, -1.35709319e-25, -8.07793567e-26, ...,

```


### Expected behavior

The `path` element points to the correct file, which happens to be:

```
C:\Users\rober\.cache\huggingface\datasets\downloads\extracted\8d1479bc09b4609bc2675bd02d6869a4d5e09f7e6616f540bd55eacef46c6e2b\hi_train_0\common_voice_hi_26008353.mp3
```

That is, there's an extra directory `hi_train_0` that is not in the `path` element.

Thanks! I have encountered similar problems. I modify the json format from list to line and works!
Missing elements in `map` a batched dataset

### Describe the bug

As outlined [here](https://discuss.huggingface.co/t/length-error-using-map-with-datasets/40969/3?u=sachin), the following collate function drops 5 out of possible 6 elements in the batch (it is 6 because out of the eight, two are bad links in laion). A reproducible [kaggle kernel ](https://www.kaggle.com/sachin/laion-hf-dataset/edit) can be found here.

The weirdest part is when inspecting the sizes of the tensors as shown below, both `tokenized_captions["input_ids"]` and `image_features` show the correct shapes. Simply the output only has one element (with the batch dimension squeezed out).

```python
class CollateFn:        
    def get_image(self, url):
        try:
            response = requests.get(url)
            return Image.open(io.BytesIO(response.content)).convert("RGB")
        except PIL.UnidentifiedImageError:
            logger.info(f"Reading error: Could not transform f{url}")
            return None
        except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError:
            logger.info(f"Connection error: Could not transform f{url}")
            return None
        
        
    def __call__(self, batch):
        images = [self.get_image(url) for url in batch["url"]]
        captions = [caption for caption, image in zip(batch["caption"], images) if image is not None]
        images = [image for image in images if image is not None]
        
        tokenized_captions = tokenizer(
            captions,
            padding="max_length",
            truncation=True,
            max_length=tokenizer.model_max_length,
            return_tensors="pt",
        )
        
        image_features = torch.stack([torch.Tensor(feature_extractor(image)["pixel_values"][0]) for image in images])
#         import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
        return {"input_ids": tokenized_captions["input_ids"], "images": image_features}

collate_fn = CollateFn()
laion_ds = datasets.load_dataset("laion/laion400m", split="train", streaming=True)
laion_ds_batched = laion_ds.map(collate_fn, batched=True, batch_size=8, remove_columns=next(iter(laion_ds)).keys())
```

### Steps to reproduce the bug

A reproducible [kaggle kernel ](https://www.kaggle.com/sachin/laion-hf-dataset/edit) can be found here.

### Expected behavior

Would expect `next(iter(laion_ds_batched))` to produce two tensors of shape `(batch_size, 77)` and `batch_size, image_shape`.

### Environment info

datasets==2.12.0
python==3.10

Hi ! in your code batching is **only used within** `map`, to process examples in batch. The dataset itself however is not batched and returns elements one by one.

To iterate on batches, you can do
```python
for batch in dataset.iter(batch_size=8):
    ...
```
Cannot use both set_format and set_transform

### Describe the bug

I need to process some data using the set_transform method but I also need the data to be formatted for pytorch before processing it.

I don't see anywhere in the documentation something that says that both methods cannot be used at the same time.

### Steps to reproduce the bug

```
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("mnist", split="train")
ds.set_format(type="torch")
def transform(entry):
    return entry["image"].double()
ds.set_transform(transform)

print(ds[0])
```

### Expected behavior

It should print the pytorch tensor image as a double, but it errors because "entry" in the transform function doesn't receive a pytorch tensor to begin with, it receives a PIL Image -> entry.double() errors because entry isn't a pytorch tensor.

### Environment info
Latest versions.


### Note:
It would be at least handy to have access to a function that can do the dataset.set_format in the set_transform function.

Something like:
```
from datasets import load_dataset, do_format
ds = load_dataset("mnist", split="train")
def transform(entry):
    entry = do_format(entry, type="torch")
    return entry["image"].double()
ds.set_transform(transform)

print(ds[0])
```

Currently, it's not possible to chain `set_format`/`set_transform` calls (plus, this is a breaking change if we decide to implement it), so I see two possible solutions:
* using `set_format`/`set_transform` for the 1st transform and then passing the transformed example/batch to the 2nd transform
* implementing and registering a custom formatter (the relevant code is [here](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/tree/main/src/datasets/formatting))

Btw, your example requires a single `set_format` call:
```python
ds.set_format("torch", columns=["image"], output_all_columns=True, dtype=torch.double)
```

Hey Mario,
Thanks, for getting back to me. the toDouble was just an example my real life case requires many more transforms.

What do you mean by:
> using set_format/set_transform for the 1st transform and then passing the transformed example/batch to the 2nd transform

How would that go, I thought you can't chain them?

As for the custom formatter, is it possible to reference an existing formatter, in my case `torch_formatter` inside of my custom formatter?

maybe I can inherit from it and just call `super.recursive_tensorize()`?

> How would that go, I thought you can't chain them?

Yes, they cannot be chained. This is what I meant:
```python
ds.set_transform(first_transform)
# calling the 2nd transform on each accessed batch
second_transform(ds[2:3])
```

> As for the custom formatter, is it possible to reference an existing formatter, in my case torch_formatter inside of my custom formatter?
>
>maybe I can inherit from it and just call super.recursive_tensorize()?

Yes, subclassing makes the most sense.

Great, thank you for the details.

Unbearably slow sorting on big mapped datasets

### Describe the bug

For me, with ~40k lines, sorting took 3.5 seconds on a flattened dataset (including the flatten operation) and 22.7 seconds on a mapped dataset (right after sharding), which is about x5 slowdown. Moreover, it seems like it slows down exponentially with bigger datasets (wasn't able to sort 700k lines at all, with flattening takes about a minute).

### Steps to reproduce the bug

```Python
from datasets import load_dataset
import time

dataset = load_dataset("xnli", "en", split="train")

dataset = dataset.shard(10, 0)

print(len(dataset))

t = time.time()

# dataset = dataset.flatten_indices()  # uncomment this line and it's fast

dataset = dataset.sort("label", reverse=True, load_from_cache_file=False)

print(f"finished in {time.time() - t:.4f} seconds")

```

### Expected behavior

Expect sorting to take the same or less time than flattening and then sorting.

### Environment info

- `datasets` version: 2.12.1.dev0 (same with 2.12.0 too)
- Platform: Windows-10-10.0.22621-SP0
- Python version: 3.10.10
- Huggingface_hub version: 0.14.1
- PyArrow version: 12.0.0
- Pandas version: 2.0.1

Hi ! `shard` currently returns a slow dataset by default, with examples evenly distributed in the dataset.

You can get a fast dataset using `contiguous=True` (which should be the default imo):

```python
dataset = dataset.shard(10, 0, contiguous=True)
```

This way you don't need to flatten_indices() and sort should be fast as well

@lhoestq 

> contiguous=True (which should be the default imo)

For `IterableDataset`, it's not possible to implement contiguous sharding without knowing the number of examples in advance, so setting the default value to `contiguous=True` would result in an inconsistency between `Dataset` and `IterableDataset` (when we add `IterableDataset.shard`)

Actually sharded iterable datasets are made of sub iterables that generally yield contiguous data no ? So in a way it's possible to shard an iterable dataset contiguously.

If the dataset is made of one shard it's indeed not possible to shard it contiguously though

> Actually sharded iterable datasets are made of sub iterables that generally yield contiguous data no ? So in a way it's possible to shard an iterable dataset contiguously.

But sharding an iterable dataset by sharding its `gen_kwargs` would still yield approximate shards(not equal to `Dataset.shard`), no? 

Yes indeed !

I understand the issue doesn't exist with non-mapped datasets, but if flattening is so much more efficient than sorting the indices, that's an issue in itself.

There are plenty of issues people posted for which the root cause turns out to be the same. It seems like mapped datasets are terribly inefficient. I think I saw some issue like that somewhere (about the mapped datasets in general), but can't find it now.

Maybe indices should be flattened before any additional processing, then.
Relax `ci.yml` trigger for `pull_request` based on modified paths

## What's in this PR?

As of a previous PR at #5902, I've seen that the CI was automatically trigger on any file, in that case when modifying a Jupyter Notebook (.ipynb), which IMO could be skipped, as the modification on the Jupyter Notebook has no effect/impact on the `ci.yml` outcome. So this PR controls the paths that trigger the `ci.yml` to avoid wasting resources when not needed.

## What's pending in this PR?

I would like to confirm whether this should affect both `push` and `pull_request`, since just modifications in those files won't change the `ci.yml` outcome, so maybe it's worth skipping it too in the `push` trigger.

Also this could be extended to the rest of the GitHub Action `yml` files, so let me know whether you want me to have a look into it! 🤗

The docs for this PR live [here](https://moon-ci-docs.huggingface.co/docs/datasets/pr_5903). All of your documentation changes will be reflected on that endpoint.

Maybe we can add
```python
paths-ignore:
  - "docs/**"
```
to `ci.yml` and `benchmarks.yml`. The other supporting files are not modified often, so leaving them out is fine.
Loading The flores data set for specific language

### Describe the bug

I am trying to load the Flores data set

the code which is given is
```

from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("facebook/flores")

```
This gives the error of config name 

""ValueError: Config name is missing"

Now if I add some config it gives me the some error

"HFValidationError: Repo id must use alphanumeric chars or '-', '_', '.', '--' and '..' are forbidden, '-' and '.' cannot start or end the name, max length is 96: 'facebook/flores, 'ace_Arab''.
"

How I can load the data of the specific language ?

Couldn't find any tutorial

any one can help me out?

### Steps to reproduce the bug

step one load the data set 

`from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("facebook/flores")`

it gives the error of config

once config is given 

it gives the error of

"HFValidationError: Repo id must use alphanumeric chars or '-', '_', '.', '--' and '..' are forbidden, '-' and '.' cannot start or end the name, max length is 96: 'facebook/flores, 'ace_Arab''.
"

### Expected behavior

Data set should be loaded but  I am receiving error

### Environment info

Datasets , python , 

got that the syntax is like this

dataset = load_dataset("facebook/flores", "ace_Arab")
HuggingFace does not cache downloaded files aggressively/early enough

### Describe the bug

I wrote the following script:

```
import datasets

dataset = datasets.load.load_dataset("wikipedia", "20220301.en", split="train[:10000]")
```

I ran it and spent 90 minutes downloading a 20GB file. Then I saw:

```
Downloading: 100%|████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████| 20.3G/20.3G [1:30:29<00:00, 3.73MB/s]

    import apache_beam as beam
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'apache_beam'
```

And the 20GB of data was seemingly instantly gone forever, because when I ran the script again, it had to do the download again.

### Steps to reproduce the bug

See above

### Expected behavior

See above

### Environment info

datasets 2.10.1
Python 3.10

I also faced this. Any update?

We've dropped the `apache-beam` dependency in https://huggingface.co/datasets/wikipedia/discussions/19, so you should no longer get this error.
User access requests with manual review do not notify the dataset owner

### Describe the bug

When a user access requests are enabled, and new requests are set to Manual Review, the dataset owner should be notified of the pending requests. However, instead, currently nothing happens, and so the dataset request can go unanswered for quite some time until the owner happens to check that particular dataset's Settings pane.

### Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Enable a dataset's user access requests
2. Set to Manual Review
3. Ask another HF user to request access to the dataset
4. Dataset owner is not notified

### Expected behavior

The dataset owner should receive some kind of notification, perhaps in their HF site inbox, or by email, when a dataset access request is made and manual review is enabled.

### Environment info

n/a

cc @SBrandeis

I think this has been addressed.

Please open a new issue if you are still not getting notified.
Use work-stealing algorithm when parallel computing

### Feature request

when i used Dataset.map api to process data concurrently, i found that
 it gets slower and slower as it gets closer to completion. Then i read the source code of arrow_dataset.py and found that it shard the dataset and use multiprocessing pool to execute each shard.It may cause the slowest task to drag out the entire program's execution time,especially when processing huge dataset.

### Motivation

using work-stealing algorithm instead of sharding and parallel computing to optimize performance. 

### Your contribution

just an idea.

Alternatively we could set the number of shards to be a factor than the number of processes (current they're equal) - this way it will be less likely to end up with a shard that is significantly slower than all the other ones.
Modify `is_remote_filesystem` to return True for FUSE-mounted paths


The docs for this PR live [here](https://moon-ci-docs.huggingface.co/docs/datasets/pr_5885). All of your documentation changes will be reflected on that endpoint.

@lhoestq would you or another maintainer be able to review please? :)

Why you do need to support FUSE mounted paths ?

`datasets` uses data that live on disk for fast lookups - FUSE mounted disks would lead to poor performance and I wouldn't recomment using it.

Fuse is commonly used to mount remote file systems (e.g. S3, DBFS) as a local directory. Since it's slower than using an actual local device, it's better to treat it as remote to reduce latency.

I think people would be confused if they don't have the same dataset behavior depending on the disk type.

If they want to use a remote bucket they should use the remote URI instead, e.g. `s3://...`. Advancements on this are tracked at #5281
`Dataset.to_tf_dataset` fails when strings cannot be encoded as `np.bytes_`

### Describe the bug

When loading any dataset that contains a column with strings that are not ASCII-compatible, looping over those records raises the following exception e.g. for `é` character `UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character '\xe9' in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)`.

### Steps to reproduce the bug

Running the following script will eventually fail, when reaching to the batch that contains non-ASCII compatible strings.

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("imdb", split="train")
tfds = ds.to_tf_dataset(batch_size=16)

for batch in tfds:
  print(batch)
>>> UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character '\xe9' in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)
```

### Expected behavior

The following script to run properly, making sure that the strings are either `numpy.unicode_` or `numpy.string` instead of `numpy.bytes_` since some characters are not ASCII compatible and that would lead to an issue when applying the `map`.

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("imdb", split="train")
tfds = ds.to_tf_dataset(batch_size=16)

for batch in tfds:
  print(batch)
```

This sounds related to #5281.

Can you try passing `storage_options=s3_client.storage_options` instead passing it to `use_auth_token=` ?

I tried `storage_options` before, but it doesn't work, I checked our source code and I found that we even didn't pass this parameter to the following process. if I use `storage_options` instead of `use_auth_token`, then I also need to change another place of the code. the last line of `streaming_download_manager.py`. our code only passes the `use_auth_token` to the following handler, but does nothing to the `storage_options`

Cloud storage support is still experimental indeed and you can expect some bugs.

I think we need to pass the storage options anywhere use_auth_token is passed in indeed. Let me know if you'd be interested in contributing a fix !

Oh, that's great, I really like to fix it. because datasets is really useful and most of our projects need to use it, but we can store our data on the internet due to security reasons. fix it not only make our own work more efficient but also can benefit others who use it.
Request for text deduplication feature

### Feature request

It would be great if there would be support for high performance, highly scalable text deduplication algorithms as part of the datasets library.

### Motivation

Motivated by this blog post https://huggingface.co/blog/dedup and this library https://github.com/google-research/deduplicate-text-datasets, but slightly frustrated by how its not very easy to work with these tools I am proposing this feature.

### Your contribution

I would be happy to contribute to the development effort of this feature. would love to collaborate with others in the development effort. 

The "exact match" deduplication will be possible when we resolve https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/issues/2514 (first, https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/30950 needs to be addressed on the Arrow side). In the meantime, you can use Polars or DuckDB (e.g., via [datasets-sql](https://github.com/mariosasko/datasets_sql)).

Fuzzy deduplication is out-of-scope for now ([splink](https://github.com/moj-analytical-services/splink) is probably the best tool for it).

This library can be an intermediate solution : https://github.com/ChenghaoMou/text-dedup/tree/main

I have been using polars to remove duplicates but it would be nice to do it directly in pyarrow.

For example,

1. Read dataset with pyarrow
2. Use scan_pyarrow_dataset() with Polars to create a LazyFrame
3. Use sort and unique to remove duplicates based on a subset of columns
4. Convert to table and save data with ds.write_dataset()

There are times where that workflow makes perfect sense because I do additional transformations with Polars. Most of the time I am simply just reading dataset A and writing dataset B without duplicates though, and I wish I could use a pyarrow scanner or table directly. 

Hi
see this new release  from hf [datatrove](https://github.com/huggingface/datatrove)
DataTrove is a library to process, filter and deduplicate text data at a very large scale. It provides a set of prebuilt commonly used processing blocks with a framework to easily add custom functionality
Why split slicing doesn't behave like list slicing ?

### Describe the bug

If I want to get the first 10 samples of my dataset, I can do :

```
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split='train[:10]')
```

But if I exceed the number of samples in the dataset, an exception is raised : 

```
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split='train[:999999999]')
```

> ValueError: Requested slice [:999999999] incompatible with 60000 examples.

### Steps to reproduce the bug

```
ds = datasets.load_dataset('mnist', split='train[:999999999]')
```

### Expected behavior

I would expect it to behave like python lists (no exception raised, the whole list is kept) : 

```
d = list(range(1000))[:999999]
print(len(d))  # > 1000
```

### Environment info

- `datasets` version: 2.9.0
- Platform: macOS-12.6-arm64-arm-64bit
- Python version: 3.9.12
- PyArrow version: 11.0.0
- Pandas version: 1.5.3

Using as_dataset on a "parquet" builder  

### Describe the bug

I used a custom builder to ``download_and_prepare`` a dataset. The first (very minor) issue is that the doc seems to suggest ``download_and_prepare`` will return the dataset, while it does not ([builder.py](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/main/src/datasets/builder.py#L718-L738)).
```
        >>> from datasets import load_dataset_builder
        >>> builder = load_dataset_builder("rotten_tomatoes")
        >>> ds = builder.download_and_prepare("./output_dir", file_format="parquet")
```

The main issue I am facing is loading the dataset from those parquet files. I used the `as_dataset` method suggested by the doc, however it returns:
`
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] Failed to open local file 'output_dir/__main__-train-00000-of-00245.arrow'. Detail:
[errno 2] No such file or directory.
` 

### Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Create a custom builder of some sort: `builder = CustomBuilder()`.
2. Run `download_and_prepare` with the parquet format: `builder.download_and_prepare("./output_dir", file_format="parquet")`.
3. Run `dataset = builder.as_dataset()`.  

### Expected behavior

I guess I'd expect `as_dataset` to generate the dataset in arrow format if it has to, or to suggest an alternative way to load the dataset (I've also tried other methods with `load_dataset` to no avail, probably due to misunderstandings on my part). 

### Environment info

```
- `datasets` version: 2.12.0
- Platform: Linux-5.15.0-1027-gcp-x86_64-with-glibc2.31
- Python version: 3.10.0
- Huggingface_hub version: 0.14.1
- PyArrow version: 8.0.0
- Pandas version: 1.5.3
```

Hi! You can refer to [this doc](https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/filesystems#load-and-save-your-datasets-using-your-cloud-storage-filesystem) to see the intended usage (basically, it skips the Arrow -> Parquet conversion step in `ds = load_dataset(...); ds.to_parquet("path/to/parquet")`) and allows writing Parquet to remote storage unlike `to_parquet`).

> I guess I'd expect as_dataset to generate the dataset in arrow format if it has to, or to suggest an alternative way to load the dataset (I've also tried other methods with load_dataset to no avail, probably due to misunderstandings on my part).

`as_dataset` does not work with `file_format="parquet"` files as Parquet files cannot be memory-mapped, so I think we should just raise an error in that case.
Allow setting the environment variable for the lock file path

### Feature request

Add an environment variable to replace the default lock file path.

### Motivation

Usually, dataset path is a read-only path while the lock file needs to be modified each time. It would be convenient if the path can be reset individually.

### Your contribution

```/src/datasets/utils/filelock.py
class UnixFileLock(BaseFileLock):
    def __init__(self, lock_file, timeout=-1, max_filename_length=None):
        #-------------------
        if os.getenv('DS_TMP_PATH'):
            file_name = str(lock_file).split('/')[-1]
            dataset_tmp_path = os.getenv('DS_TMP_PATH')
            lock_file = os.path.join(dataset_tmp_path, file_name)
        #-------------------
        max_filename_length = os.statvfs(os.path.dirname(lock_file)).f_namemax
        super().__init__(lock_file, timeout=timeout, max_filename_length=max_filename_length)
```
A simple demo is as upper. Thanks.
data configuration hash suffix depends on uncanonicalized data_dir

### Describe the bug

I am working with the `recipe_nlg` dataset, which requires manual download. Once it's downloaded, I've noticed that the hash in the custom data configuration is different if I add a trailing `/` to my `data_dir`. It took me a while to notice that the hashes were different, and to understand that that was the cause of my dataset being processed anew instead of the cached version being used.

### Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Follow the steps to manually download the `recipe_nlg` dataset to `/data/recipenlg`.
2. Load it using `load_dataset`, once without a trailing slash and once with one:

    ```python
    >>> ds = load_dataset("recipe_nlg", data_dir="/data/recipenlg")
    Using custom data configuration default-082278caeea85765
    Downloading and preparing dataset recipe_nlg/default to /home/kyle/.cache/huggingface/datasets/recipe_nlg/default-082278caeea85765/1.0.0/aa4f120223637bedf7360cecb70a9bd108acfd64e38207ca90c9f385d21e5e74...

    ^C
    ```

3. Observe that the hash suffix in the custom data configuration changes due to the altered string.

### Expected behavior

I think I would expect the hash to remain constant if it actually points to the same location on disk. I would expect the use of `os.path.normpath` to canonicalize the paths.

### Environment info

- `datasets` version: 2.8.0
- Platform: Linux-5.4.0-147-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.31
- Python version: 3.10.8
- PyArrow version: 10.0.1
- Pandas version: 1.5.2

It could even use `os.path.realpath` to resolve symlinks.

Indeed, it makes sense to normalize `data_dir`. Feel free to submit a PR (this can be "fixed" [here](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/89f775226321ba94e5bf4670a323c0fb44f5f65c/src/datasets/builder.py#L173))

#self-assign
Is it possible to change a cached file and 're-cache' it instead of re-generating?

### Feature request

Hi,
I have a huge cached file using `map`(over 500GB), and I want to change an attribution of each element, is there possible to do it using some method instead of re-generating, because `map` takes over 24 hours

### Motivation

For large datasets, I think it is very important because we always face the problem which is changing something in the original cache without re-generating it.

### Your contribution

For now, I can't help, sorry.

Arrow files/primitives (tables and arrays) are immutable, so re-generating them is the only option, I'm afraid.

Got it, thanks for your reply
Issue with Sequence features

### Describe the bug

Sequences features  sometimes causes errors when the specified length is not -1

### Steps to reproduce the bug

```python
import numpy as np
from datasets import Features, ClassLabel, Sequence, Value, Dataset
feats = Features(**{'target': ClassLabel(names=[0, 1]),'x': Sequence(feature=Value(dtype='float64',id=None), length=2, id=None)})
Dataset.from_dict({"target": np.ones(2000).astype(int), "x": np.random.rand(2000,2)},features = feats).flatten_indices()
```
Throws:
```
  TypeError: Couldn't cast array of type
  fixed_size_list<item: double>[2]
  to
  Sequence(feature=Value(dtype='float64', id=None), length=2, id=None)
```
The same code works without any issues when `length = -1`

EDIT: The error seems to happen only when the length of the dataset is bigger than 1000 for some reason
### Expected behavior

No exception

### Environment info

- `datasets` version: 2.10.1
- Python version: 3.9.5
- PyArrow version: 11.0.0
- Pandas version: 1.4.1

Thanks for reporting! I've opened a PR with a fix.
IndexError: list index out of range with data hosted on Zenodo

Throw an error when dataset improperly indexed

### Describe the bug

Pandas-style subset indexing on dataset does not throw an error, when maybe it should. Instead returns the first instance of the dataset regardless of index condition.

### Steps to reproduce the bug

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. `squad = datasets.load_dataset("squad_v2", split="validation")`
2. `item = squad[squad['question'] ==  "Who was the Norse leader?"]`
or `it = squad[squad['id'] == '56ddde6b9a695914005b962b']`
3.  returns the first item in the dataset, which does not satisfy the above conditions:

`{'id': '56ddde6b9a695914005b9628', 'title': 'Normans', 'context': 'The Normans (Norman: Nourmands; French: Normands; Latin: Normanni) were the people who in the 10th and 11th centuries gave their name to Normandy, a region in France. They were descended from Norse ("Norman" comes from "Norseman") raiders and pirates from Denmark, Iceland and Norway who, under their leader Rollo, agreed to swear fealty to King Charles III of West Francia. Through generations of assimilation and mixing with the native Frankish and Roman-Gaulish populations, their descendants would gradually merge with the Carolingian-based cultures of West Francia. The distinct cultural and ethnic identity of the Normans emerged initially in the first half of the 10th century, and it continued to evolve over the succeeding centuries.', 'question': 'In what country is Normandy located?', 'answers': {'text': ['France', 'France', 'France', 'France'], 'answer_start': [159, 159, 159, 159]}}`

### Expected behavior

Should either throw an error message, or return the dataset item that satisfies the condition.

### Environment info

- `datasets` version: 2.9.0
- Platform: macOS-13.3.1-arm64-arm-64bit
- Python version: 3.10.8
- PyArrow version: 10.0.1
- Pandas version: 1.5.3

Thanks for reporting, @sarahwie.

Please note that in `datasets` we do not have vectorized operation like `pandas`. Therefore, your equality comparisons above are `False`:
- For example: `squad['question']` returns a `list`, and this list is not equal to `"Who was the Norse leader?"`

The `False` value is equivalent to `0` when indexing a dataset, thus the reason why you get the first element (with index 0): 
- For example: `squad[False]` is equivalent to `squad[0]`

Maybe we should an exception instead of assuming that `False` is equivalent to `0` (and `True` is equivalent to `1`) in the context of indexing.
Adding chemistry dataset/models in huggingface

### Feature request

Huggingface is really amazing platform for open science.

In addition to computer vision, video and NLP, would it be of interest to add chemistry/materials science dataset/models in Huggingface? Or, if its already done, can you provide some pointers.

We have been working on a comprehensive benchmark on this topic: [JARVIS-Leaderboard](https://pages.nist.gov/jarvis_leaderboard/) and I am wondering if we could contribute/integrate this project as a part of huggingface. 

### Motivation

Similar to the main stream AI field, there is need of large scale benchmarks/models/infrastructure for chemistry/materials data.

### Your contribution

We can start adding datasets as our [benchmarks](https://github.com/usnistgov/jarvis_leaderboard/tree/main/jarvis_leaderboard/benchmarks) should be easily convertible to the dataset format.

Hi! 

This would be a nice addition to the Hub! You can find the existing chemistry datasets/models on the Hub (using the `chemistry` tag) [here](https://huggingface.co/search/full-text?q=chemistry&type=model&type=dataset).

Feel free to ping us here on the Hub if you need help adding the datasets.
Error loading natural_questions

### Describe the bug

When try to load natural_questions through datasets == 2.12.0 with python == 3.8.9:

Can not load audiofolder dataset on kaggle

### Describe the bug
It's crash log:
FileNotFoundError: Couldn't find a dataset script at /kaggle/working/audiofolder/audiofolder.py or any data file in the same directory. Couldn't find 'audiofolder' on the Hugging Face Hub either: FileNotFoundError: Couldn't find file at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huggingface/datasets/master/datasets/audiofolder/audiofolder.py


### Steps to reproduce the bug

### Expected behavior

load dataset without error. It works ok on colab, but on kaggle it happends.

### Environment info

Hi! `audiofolder` requires `datasets>=2.5.0`, so please update the `datasets`' installation (`pip install -U datasets`) in the environment (and restart the env for the update to take effect) to resolve the issue.

> Hi! `audiofolder` requires `datasets>=2.5.0`, so please update the `datasets`' installation (`pip install -U datasets`) in the environment to resolve the issue.

I don't think it is a problem of the version. It runs ok on colab or local machine. Only on kaggle will has this bug.

Based on your dataset info, the installed version is `2.1.0`, which does not include `audiofolder`.

By default, Kaggle preinstalls `datasets` into a new env, but the version it installs is outdated and does not contain newer features such as `audiofolder`
CSV datasets should only read the CSV data files in the repo

When a no-script dataset has many CSV files and a JPG file, the library infers to use the Csv builder, but tries to read as CSV all files in the repo, also the JPG file.

I think the Csv builder should filter out non-CSV files when reading.

An analogue solution should be implemented for other packaged builders.

load_dataset('bigcode/the-stack-dedup', streaming=True) very slow!

### Describe the bug

Running

```
import datasets
ds = datasets.load_dataset('bigcode/the-stack-dedup', streaming=True)
```

takes about 2.5 minutes! 

I would expect this to be near instantaneous. With other datasets, the runtime is one or two seconds.


### Environment info

- `datasets` version: 2.11.0
- Platform: macOS-13.3.1-arm64-arm-64bit
- Python version: 3.10.10
- Huggingface_hub version: 0.13.4
- PyArrow version: 11.0.0
- Pandas version: 2.0.0

This is due to the slow resolution of the data files: https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/issues/5537.

We plan to switch to `huggingface_hub`'s `HfFileSystem` soon to make the resolution faster (will be up to 20x faster once we merge https://github.com/huggingface/huggingface_hub/pull/1443)



You're right, when I try to parse more than 50GB of text data, I also get very slow, usually taking hours or even tens of hours.

> You're right, when I try to parse more than 50GB of text data, I also get very slow, usually taking hours or even tens of hours.

That's unrelated to the problem discussed in this issue.

Sorry, I misunderstood it.

Closing this issue as it has been addressed in `huggingface_hub`!

(This now takes 25s to execute on my machine.)

Thanks for the improvements! 🎉🎉

25 seconds is better but still about 2500x slower than this _should_ be! Loading a tiny 1-2KB metadata file is all that would be necessary with a better design.

Once we merge https://github.com/huggingface/huggingface_hub/pull/2103, this should only take a few seconds. 

For the 2500x speed-up (without metadata files with pre-cached results), we wouldn't even be allowed to use `os.path` functions or `requests`/`aiohttp` for HTTP requests, so I don't think this is feasible for us as it would make the code unreadable.

The HF Datasets Hub is (almost) platform-agnostic, so you are free to implement your own library (in a faster language than Python) to achieve this kind of performance, and we would be happy to support it 🙂.
load model error.

### Describe the bug

I had trained one model use deepspeed, when I load the final load I get the follow error:
OSError: Can't load tokenizer for '/XXX/DeepSpeedExamples/applications/DeepSpeed-Chat/output/step3-models/1.3b/actor'. If you were trying to load it from 'https://huggingface.co/models', make sure you don't have a local directory with the same name. Otherwise, make sure '/home/fm001/hzl/Project/DeepSpeedExamples/applications/DeepSpeed-Chat/output/step3-models/1.3b/actor' is the correct path to a directory containing all relevant files for a BloomTokenizerFast tokenizer.


my load code is : python chat.py --path /XXX/DeepSpeedExamples/applications/DeepSpeed-Chat/output/step3-models/1.3b/actor/
