Dataset Card for Catalan Government Crawling

Dataset Summary

The Catalan Government Crawling Corpus is a 39-million-token web corpus of Catalan built from the web. It has been obtained by crawling the .gencat domain and subdomains, belonging to the Catalan Government during September and October 2020. It consists of 39,117,909 tokens, 1,565,433 sentences and 71,043 documents. Documents are separated by single new lines. It is a subcorpus of the Catalan Textual Corpus.

Data Splits

The dataset contains a single split: train.

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

We created this corpus to contribute to the development of language models in Catalan, a low-resource language.

Source Data

Initial Data Collection and Normalization

The corpus has been obtained by crawling the all the .gencat.cat domains during July 2020. For preprocessing we used Corpus-Cleaner, a modular Python-based toolkit to clean raw text corpora through generator pipelines.

Who are the source language producers?

The data comes from the official Catalan Government websites.

Annotations

The dataset is unannotated.

Personal and Sensitive Information

Since all data comes from public websites, no anonymisation process was performed.

Considerations for Using the Data

Social Impact of Dataset

We hope this corpus contributes to the development of language models in Catalan, a low-resource language.

Discussion of Biases

We are aware that since the data comes from public web pages, some biases may be present in the dataset. Nonetheless, we have not applied any steps to reduce their impact.

Other Known Limitations
