# Dataset Card for SNAP

## Dataset Description

- **Repository:** [ardax/hashtag-segmentor](https://github.com/ardax/hashtag-segmentor)
- **Paper:** [Segmenting hashtags using automatically created training data](http://www.lrec-conf.org/proceedings/lrec2016/pdf/708_Paper.pdf)

### Dataset Summary

Automatically segmented 803K SNAP Twitter Data Set hashtags with the heuristic described in the paper "Segmenting hashtags using automatically created training data".

### Languages

English

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

```
{
    "index": 0,
    "hashtag": "BrandThunder",
    "segmentation": "Brand Thunder"
}
```

### Data Fields

- `index`: a numerical index.
- `hashtag`: the original hashtag.
- `segmentation`: the gold segmentation for the hashtag.

## Dataset Creation

- All hashtag segmentation and identifier splitting datasets on this profile have the same basic fields: `hashtag` and `segmentation` or `identifier` and `segmentation`.

- The only difference between `hashtag` and `segmentation` or between `identifier` and `segmentation` are the whitespace characters. Spell checking, expanding abbreviations or correcting characters to uppercase go into other fields.

- There is always whitespace between an alphanumeric character and a sequence of any special characters ( such as `_` , `:`, `~` ). 

- If there are any annotations for named entity recognition and other token classification tasks, they are given in a `spans` field.
