Dataset Card for PAWS-ca: Paraphrase Adversaries from Word Scrambling in Catalan

Dataset Summary

The PAWS-ca dataset (Paraphrase Adversaries from Word Scrambling in Catalan) is a translation of the English PAWS dataset into Catalan, commissioned by BSC LangTech Unit.

The dataset contains 4,000 human translated PAWS pairs and 49,000 machine translated pairs.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

Paraphrase Identification, Language Model

Languages

The dataset is in Catalan (ca-ES).

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

Three JSON files, one for each split.

Example:

    
   {
       "id": 38
       "sentence1": Holly estava influenciat musicalment per Elton John.
       "sentence2": Holly Holly va ser influenciada musicalment per Elton John.
       "label": 1
    }
        
    {
        "id":
        "sentence1": L’equip va respondre als canvis en el següent partit el mateix vespre del 19 de febrer.
        "sentence2": L'equip va respondre als canvis en el mateix partit d’aquell següent 19 de febrer al vespre.
        "label": 0
     }
      

Data Fields

• id: An ID that matches the ID of the source pair of the English PAWS dataset
• sentence1: The first sentence
• sentence2: The second sentence
• label: Label for each pair

Data Splits

• paws-ca.train.jsonl: 49,401 examples
• paws-ca.val.jsonl: 2,000 examples
• paws-ca.test.jsonl: 2,000 examples

Caveat: please note that the dev and test sets of PAWS-X are both sourced from the dev set of PAWS-Wiki. As a consequence, the same sentence 1 may appear in both the dev and test sets. Nevertheless our data split guarantees that there is no overlap on sentence pairs (sentence 1 + sentence 2) between dev and test.
