## Dataset Creation |
|
|
|
### Source Data |
|
|
|
#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization |
|
|
|
We randomly selected YouTube videos with text-rich thumbnails from different categories during the data collection. |
|
We recorded the unique video ID for each YouTube video and obtained the high-resolution thumbnail from the |
|
URL ”http://img.youtube.com/vi/YouTube-Video-ID/maxresdefault.jpg”. |
|
|
|
### Annotations |
|
|
|
#### Annotation process |
|
|
|
We created the annotation file with the following fields: ”video id,” question,” video classes,” answers,” and ”video link" in JSON format. |
|
|
|
## Considerations for Using the Data |
|
|
|
### Discussion of Biases |
|
|
|
Although our dataset spans 11 categories, the ratio within each category varies. For example, 18% of the dataset pertains to education, while only 2% is dedicated to news. |
|
