### Dataset Summary

This dataset is a Swedish machine translated version for semantic textual similarity. 

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

This dataset can be used to evaluate text similarity on Swedish.

### Languages

The text in the dataset is in Swedish. The associated BCP-47 code is `sv`.

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

What a sample looks like:
```
{'score': '4.2',
 'sentence1': 'Undrar om jultomten kommer i år pga Corona..?',
 'sentence2': 'Jag undrar om jultomen kommer hit i år med tanke på covid-19',
}
```

### Data Fields

- `score`: a float representing the semantic similarity score. Where 0.0 is the lowest score and 5.0 is the highest.
- `sentence1`: a string representing a text
- `sentence2`: another string to compare the semantic with

### Data Splits

The data is split into a training, validation and test set. The final split sizes are as follow:

| Train  | Valid | Test |
| ------ | ----- | ---- |
| 5749   |  1500 | 1379 |
