Duplicates in the LAMA dataset

I observed duplicates in the LAMA probing dataset, see a minimal code below. 

```
>>> import datasets
>>> dataset = datasets.load_dataset('lama')
No config specified, defaulting to: lama/trex
Reusing dataset lama (/home/anam/.cache/huggingface/datasets/lama/trex/1.1.0/97deffae13eca0a18e77dfb3960bb31741e973586f5c1fe1ec0d6b5eece7bddc)
>>> train_dataset = dataset['train']
>>> train_dataset[0]

```

I checked the original data available at https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/LAMA/data.zip. This particular duplicated comes from:
```
{"uuid": "40b2ed1c-0961-482e-844e-32596b6117c8", "obj_uri": "Q150", "obj_label": "French", "sub_uri": "Q441235", "sub_label": "Louis Jules Trochu", "predicate_id": "P103", "evidences": [{"sub_surface": "Louis Jules Trochu", "obj_surface": "French", "masked_sentence": "Louis Jules Trochu ([lwi \u0292yl t\u0281\u0254\u0283y]; 12 March 1815 \u2013 7 October 1896) was a [MASK] military leader and politician."}, {"sub_surface": "Louis Jules Trochu", "obj_surface": "French", "masked_sentence": "Louis Jules Trochu ([lwi \u0292yl t\u0281\u0254\u0283y]; 12 March 1815 \u2013 7 October 1896) was a [MASK] military leader and politician."}]}
``` 

What is the best way to deal with these duplicates if I want to use `datasets` to probe with LAMA?  


Hi,

currently the datasets API doesn't have a dedicated function to remove duplicate rows, but since the LAMA dataset is not too big (it fits in RAM), we can leverage pandas to help us remove duplicates:
```python
>>> from datasets import load_dataset, Dataset
>>> dataset = load_dataset('lama', split='train')
>>> dataset = Dataset.from_pandas(dataset.to_pandas().drop_duplicates(subset=...)) # specify a subset of the columns to consider in a list or use all of the columns if None
```

Note that the same can be achieved with the `Dataset.filter` method but this would requrie some extra work (filter function, speed?).

Oh, seems like my question wasn't specified well. I'm _not_ asking how to remove duplicates, but whether duplicates should be removed if I want to do the evaluation on the LAMA dataset as it was proposed in the original paper/repository? In other words, will I get the same result if evaluate on the de-duplicated dataset loaded from HF's `datasets` as the results I'd get if I use the original data format and data processing script in https://github.com/facebookresearch/LAMA? 

So it looks like the person who added LAMA to the library chose to have one item per piece of evidence rather than one per relation - and in this case, there are duplicate pieces of evidence for the target relation

If I understand correctly, to reproduce reported results, you would have to aggregate predictions for the several pieces of evidence provided for each relation (each unique `uuid`), but the original authors will know better

Hi! Triaging older issues — I think this one is out of scope on the current architecture.

The duplicated LAMA example shown here came from the `lama/lama.py` loading script's iteration over `evidences[]` (which contained the same masked sentence twice in the upstream `data.zip`). That script no longer lives in this repo:

- `src/datasets/load.py:1661-1666` — `load_dataset` rejects script-based loading and points users at datasets in "a standard format like Parquet."
- There is no `datasets/lama/` directory in this repo anymore; LAMA is hosted on the Hub at https://huggingface.co/datasets/lama and the dedup/reshape decision is the dataset author's call now.

Client-side workaround if you need a deduped view today:
```python
ds = load_dataset("lama", "trex", split="train")
ds = ds.to_pandas().drop_duplicates(subset=["uuid", "masked_sentence"]).pipe(Dataset.from_pandas)
```

Would you mind closing this out? Dedup or example-level re-ingestion is better tracked on https://huggingface.co/datasets/lama.
