Dataset Summary

Warning: There are issues with the Common Crawl corpus data (training-parallel-commoncrawl.tgz):

• Non-English files contain many English sentences.
• Their "parallel" sentences in English are not aligned: they are uncorrelated with their counterpart.

We have contacted the WMT organizers, and in response, they have indicated that they do not have plans to update the Common Crawl corpus data. Their rationale pertains to the expectation that such data has been superseded, primarily by CCMatrix, and to some extent, by ParaCrawl datasets.

Translation dataset based on the data from statmt.org.

Versions exist for different years using a combination of data sources. The base wmt allows you to create a custom dataset by choosing your own data/language pair. This can be done as follows:

from datasets import inspect_dataset, load_dataset_builder

inspect_dataset("wmt18", "path/to/scripts")
builder = load_dataset_builder(
    "path/to/scripts/wmt_utils.py",
    language_pair=("fr", "de"),
    subsets={
        datasets.Split.TRAIN: ["commoncrawl_frde"],
        datasets.Split.VALIDATION: ["euelections_dev2019"],
    },
)

# Standard version
builder.download_and_prepare()
ds = builder.as_dataset()

# Streamable version
ds = builder.as_streaming_dataset()
