Dataset Card for "TID-8"
Dataset Summary
TID-8 is a new aggregated benchmark focused on the task of letting models learn from data that has inherent disagreement proposed in link at Findings of EMNLP 2023. In the paper, we focus on the inherent disagreement and let the model directly learn from data that has such disagreement.
We provide two split for TID-8.
Annotation Split
We split the annotations for each annotator into train and test set.
In other words, the same set of annotators appear in both train, (val), and test sets.
For datasets that have splits originally, we follow the original split and remove datapoints in test sets that are annotated by an annotator who is not in the training set.
For datasets that do not have splits originally, we split the data into train and test set for convenience, you may further split the train set into a train and val set.
Annotator Split
We split annotators into train and test set.
In other words, a different set of annotators would appear in train and test sets.
We split the data into train and test set for convenience, you may consider further splitting the train set into a train and val set for performance validation.
