Dataset Card for Google Sentence Compression

Dataset Summary

A major challenge in supervised sentence compression is making use of rich feature representations because of very scarce parallel data. We address this problem and present a method to automatically build a compression corpus with hundreds of thousands of instances on which deletion-based algorithms can be trained. In our corpus, the syntactic trees of the compressions are subtrees of their uncompressed counterparts, and hence supervised systems which require a structural alignment between the input and output can be successfully trained. We also extend an existing unsupervised compression method with a learning module. The new system uses structured prediction to learn from lexical, syntactic and other features. An evaluation with human raters shows that the presented data harvesting method indeed produces a parallel corpus of high quality. Also, the supervised system trained on this corpus gets high scores both from human raters and in an automatic evaluation setting, significantly outperforming a strong baseline.

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

Each data instance should contains the information about the original sentence in instance["graph"]["sentence"] as well as the compressed sentence in instance["compression"]["text"]. As this dataset was created by pruning dependency connections, the author also includes the dependency tree and transformed graph of the original sentence and compressed sentence.

Data Fields

Each instance should contains these information:

• graph (Dict): the transformation graph/tree for extracting compression (a modified version of a dependency tree).
  • This will have features similar to a dependency tree (listed bellow)
• compression (Dict)
  • text (str)
  • edge (List)
• headline (str): the headline of the original news page.
• compression_ratio (float): the ratio between compressed sentence vs original sentence.
• doc_id (str): url of the original news page.
• source_tree (Dict): the original dependency tree (features listed bellow).
• compression_untransformed (Dict)
  • text (str)
  • edge (List)

Dependency tree features:

• id (str)
• sentence (str)
• node (List): list of nodes, each node represent a word/word phrase in the tree.
  • form (string)
  • type (string): the enity type of a node. Defaults to "" if it's not an entity.
  • mid (string)
  • word (List): list of words the node contains.
    • id (int)
    • form (str): the word from the sentence.
    • stem (str): the stemmed/lemmatized version of the word.
    • tag (str): dependency tag of the word.
  • gender (int)
  • head_word_index (int)
• edge: list of the dependency connections between words.
  • parent_id (int)
  • child_id (int)
  • label (str)
• entity_mention list of the entities in the sentence.
  • start (int)
  • end (int)
  • head (str)
  • name (str)
  • type (str)
  • mid (str)
  • is_proper_name_entity (bool)
  • gender (int)
