Dataset Card for CA-ZH Parallel Corpus

Dataset Summary

The CA-ZH Parallel Corpus is a Catalan-Chinese dataset of 6.833.114 parallel sentences. The dataset was created to support Catalan in NLP tasks, specifically Machine Translation.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

The dataset can be used to train Bilingual Machine Translation models between Chinese and Catalan in any direction, as well as Multilingual Machine Translation models.

Languages

The sentences included in the dataset are in Catalan (CA) and Chinese (ZH).

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

Two separate txt files are provided with the sentences sorted in the same order:

  • ca-zh_all_2023_10_26.ca: contains 6.833.114 Catalan sentences.

  • ca-zh_all_2023_10_26.zh: contains 6.833.114 Chinese sentences.

Data Splits

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

This dataset is aimed at promoting the development of Machine Translation between Catalan and other languages, specifically Chinese.

Source Data

Initial Data Collection and Normalization

The Catalan-Chinese data collected from the web was a combination of the following datasets:

Dataset Sentences before cleaning
WikiMatrix 90.643
XLENT 535.803
GNOME 78
QED 3.677
TED2020 v1 56.269
OpenSubtitles 139.300
Total 882.039

The 6.658.607 sentence pairs of synthetic parallel data were created from the following Spanish-Chinese datasets:

Dataset Sentences before cleaning
UNPC 17.599.223
CCMatrix 24.051.233
MultiParacrawl 3.410.087
Total 45.060.543

Data preparation

The Chinese side of all datasets are passed through the fastlangid language detector and any sentences which are not identified as simplified Chinese are discarded. The datasets are then also deduplicated and filtered to remove any sentence pairs with a cosine similarity of less than 0.75. This is done using sentence embeddings calculated using LaBSE. The filtered datasets are then concatenated to form a final corpus of 6.833.114 parallel sentences.

Personal and Sensitive Information

Given that this dataset is partly derived from pre-existing datasets that may contain crawled data, and that no specific anonymisation process has been applied, personal and sensitive information may be present in the data. This needs to be considered when using the data for training models.

Considerations for Using the Data

Social Impact of Dataset

By providing this resource, we intend to promote the use of Catalan across NLP tasks, thereby improving the accessibility and visibility of the Catalan language.

Discussion of Biases

No specific bias mitigation strategies were applied to this dataset. Inherent biases may exist within the data.

Other Known Limitations

The dataset contains data of a general domain. Applications of this dataset in more specific domains such as biomedical, legal etc. would be of limited use.
