## Dataset Description
- **Website:** https://zenodo.org/record/7973926
- **Point of Contact:** langtech@bsc.es
### Dataset Summary
The COPA-ca dataset (Choice of plausible alternatives in Catalan) is a professional translation of the English COPA dataset into Catalan, commissioned by BSC LangTech Unit. The dataset consists of 1000 premises, each given a question and two choices with a label encoding which of the choices is more plausible given the annotator.
The dataset is split into 400 training samples, 100 validation samples, and 500 test samples. It includes the following features: 'premise', 'choice1', 'choice2', 'question', 'label', 'idx', 'changed'.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
Commonsense reasoning, Language Model
### Languages
The dataset is in Catalan (`ca-ES`).
## Dataset Structure
### Data Instances
Three JSON files, one for each split.
### Example:
<pre>
{
"premise": "El meu cos va dibuixar una ombra damunt l'herba.",
"choice1": "El sol estava sortint.",
"choice2": "L'herba estava tallada.",
"question": "cause",
"label": 0,
"idx": 1,
"changed": false
}
{
"premise": "La dona va tolerar el comportament difícil de la seva amiga.",
"choice1": "La dona sabia que la seva amiga estava passant per un moment difícil.",
"choice2": "A la dona li va semblar que la seva amiga s'aprofitava de la seva amabilitat.",
"question": "cause",
"label": 0,
"idx": 2,
"changed": false
}
</pre>

## Dataset Creation
### Curation Rationale
We created this dataset to contribute to the development of language models in Catalan, a low-resource language.
### Source Data
[COPA](https://people.ict.usc.edu/~gordon/copa.html).
#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization
This dataset is a professional translation the English COPA dataset into Catalan, commissioned by BSC LangTech Unit within Projecte AINA.
#### Who are the source language producers?
For more information on how COPA was created, refer to the paper (Roemmele et al. 2011), or
visit the [COPA's webpage](https://people.ict.usc.edu/~gordon/copa.html).
### Annotations
#### Annotation process
[N/A]
#### Who are the annotators?
This is a professional translation of the English COPA dataset and its annotations.
### Personal and Sensitive Information
No personal or sensitive information included.
## Considerations for Using the Data
### Social Impact of Dataset
We hope this dataset contributes to the development of language models in Catalan, a low-resource language.
### Discussion of Biases
[N/A]
### Other Known Limitations
