One more step before getting this dataset. This dataset is open access and available only for non-commercial use (except for portions of the dataset labeled with a cc-by-sa license). A "license" field paired with each of the dataset entries/samples specifies the Creative Commons license for that entry/sample.

These Creative Commons licenses specify that:

  1. You cannot use the dataset for or directed toward commercial advantage or monetary compensation (except for those portions of the dataset labeled specifically with a cc-by-sa license. If you would like to ask about commercial uses of this dataset, please email us.
  2. Any public, non-commercial use of the data must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.
  3. For those portions of the dataset marked with an ND license, you cannot remix, transform, or build upon the material, and you may not distribute modified material.

In addition to the above implied by Creative Commons and when clicking "Access Repository" below, you agree:

  1. Not to use the dataset for any use intended to or which has the effect of harming or enabling discrimination against individuals or groups based on legally protected characteristics or categories, including but not limited to discrimination against Indigenous People as outlined in Articles 2; 13-16; and 31 of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People, 13 September 2007 and as subsequently amended and revised.

Dataset Summary

Bloom is free, open-source software and an associated website Bloom Library, app, and services developed by SIL International. Bloom’s primary goal is to equip non-dominant language communities and their members to create the literature they want for their community and children. Bloom also serves organizations that help such communities develop literature and education or other aspects of community development.

This version of the Bloom Library data is developed specifically for the visual story telling (or VIST) task. It includes data from 364 languages across 31 language families. There is a mean of 32 stories and median of 2 stories per language.

Note: If you speak one of these languages and can help provide feedback or corrections, please let us know!

Note: Although this data was used in the training of the BLOOM model, this dataset only represents a small portion of the data used to train that model. Data from "Bloom Library" was combined with a large number of other datasets to train that model. "Bloom Library" is a project that existed prior to the BLOOM model, and is something separate. All that to say... We were using the "Bloom" name before it was cool. 😉

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

The examples look like this for Hindi:

from datasets import load_dataset

# Specify the language code.
dataset = load_dataset("sil-ai/bloom-vist", 'hin')

# An individual samples consists of stories in the specified language code.
# To see a story:
print(dataset['train'][0]['story'])

This would produce an output:
