### Dataset Summary
The dataset is a collection of news titles in arabic along with paraphrased and corrupted titles. The stance prediction version is a 3-class classification task. Data contains three columns: s1, s2, stance.

### Languages
Arabic

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances
An example of 'train' looks as follows:
```
{
  'id': '0', 
  's1': 'هجوم صاروخي يستهدف مطار في طرابلس ويجبر ليبيا على تغيير مسار الرحلات الجوية', 
  's2': 'هدوء الاشتباكات فى طرابلس', 
  'stance': 0
}

```

### Data Fields
- `id`: a 'string' feature.
- `s1`: a 'string' expressing a claim/topic.
- `s2`: a 'string' to be classified for its stance to the source.
- `stance`: a class label representing the stance the article expresses towards the claim. Full tagset with indices:
```
                0: "disagree",
                1: "agree",
                2: "other",
```
