| ### Dataset Summary | |
| The DBpedia ontology classification dataset is constructed by picking 14 non-overlapping classes | |
| from DBpedia 2014. They are listed in classes.txt. From each of thse 14 ontology classes, we | |
| randomly choose 40,000 training samples and 5,000 testing samples. Therefore, the total size | |
| of the training dataset is 560,000 and testing dataset 70,000. | |
| There are 3 columns in the dataset (same for train and test splits), corresponding to class index | |
| (1 to 14), title and content. The title and content are escaped using double quotes ("), and any | |
| internal double quote is escaped by 2 double quotes (""). There are no new lines in title or content. | |
| ### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards | |
| - `text-classification`, `topic-classification`: The dataset is mainly used for text classification: given the content | |
| and the title, predict the correct topic. | |
| ### Languages | |
| Although DBpedia is a multilingual knowledge base, the DBpedia14 extract contains English data mainly, other languages may appear | |
| (e.g. a film whose title is origanlly not English). | |
| ## Dataset Structure | |
| ### Data Instances | |
| A typical data point, comprises of a title, a content and the corresponding label. | |
| An example from the DBpedia test set looks as follows: | |
| ``` | |
| { | |
| 'title':'', | |
| 'content':" TY KU /taɪkuː/ is an American alcoholic beverage company that specializes in sake and other spirits. The privately-held company was founded in 2004 and is headquartered in New York City New York. While based in New York TY KU's beverages are made in Japan through a joint venture with two sake breweries. Since 2011 TY KU's growth has extended its products into all 50 states.", | |
| 'label':0 | |
| } | |
| ``` | |
| ### Data Fields | |
| - 'title': a string containing the title of the document - escaped using double quotes (") and any internal double quote is escaped by 2 double quotes (""). | |
| - 'content': a string containing the body of the document - escaped using double quotes (") and any internal double quote is escaped by 2 double quotes (""). | |
| - 'label': one of the 14 possible topics. | |
| ### Data Splits | |
| The data is split into a training and test set. | |
| For each of the 14 classes we have 40,000 training samples and 5,000 testing samples. | |
| Therefore, the total size of the training dataset is 560,000 and testing dataset 70,000. | |
