Inspec Benchmark Dataset for Keyphrase Generation

About

Inspec is a dataset for benchmarking keyphrase extraction and generation models. The dataset is composed of 2,000 abstracts of scientific papers collected from the Inspec database. Keyphrases were annotated by professional indexers in an uncontrolled setting (that is, not limited to thesaurus entries). Details about the inspec dataset can be found in the original paper (Hulth, 2003).

Reference (indexer-assigned) keyphrases are also categorized under the PRMU (Present-Reordered-Mixed-Unseen) scheme as proposed in (Boudin and Gallina, 2021).

Text pre-processing (tokenization) is carried out using spacy (en_core_web_sm model) with a special rule to avoid splitting words with hyphens (e.g. graph-based is kept as one token). Stemming (Porter's stemmer implementation provided in nltk) is applied before reference keyphrases are matched against the source text. Details about the process can be found in prmu.py.

Content and statistics

The dataset is divided into the following three splits:

Split # documents #words # keyphrases % Present % Reordered % Mixed % Unseen
Train 1,000 141.7 9.79 78.00 9.85 6.22 5.93
Validation 500 132.2 9.15 77.96 9.82 6.75 5.47
Test 500 134.8 9.83 78.70 9.92 6.48 4.91

The following data fields are available :

  • id: unique identifier of the document.
  • title: title of the document.
  • abstract: abstract of the document.
  • keyphrases: list of reference keyphrases.
  • prmu: list of Present-Reordered-Mixed-Unseen categories for reference keyphrases.
