PubMed RCT Subset (Cleaned)
Dataset Summary
pubmed-rct-subset_cleaned is a lightweight, preprocessed subset of the original PubMed RCT 20k dataset designed for teaching, demonstrations, tutorials, and rapid prototyping of biomedical text classification models.
The dataset contains sentences extracted from PubMed randomized controlled trial (RCT) abstracts and labeled according to their rhetorical role within the abstract.
This version has been cleaned and reduced in size to make experimentation faster and more accessible for educational settings.
Dataset Description
Source Dataset
This dataset is derived from:
PubMed RCT 20k: A dataset of sentences from randomized controlled trial abstracts annotated with their rhetorical role.
Original dataset:
https://huggingface.co/datasets/armanc/pubmed-rct20k
Purpose of this Version
This subset was created for use for:
- Machine learning tutorials
- Natural language processing demonstrations
- Classroom teaching and workshops
- Rapid prototyping of text classification models
It is not intended to replace the original dataset for research benchmarks.
Preprocessing
The following preprocessing steps were applied.
Text Cleaning
The text was normalised by:
- Removing special characters such as:
@=- selected mathematical symbols
- selected LaTeX-style symbols and formatting artifacts
- Removing redundant whitespace
- Stripping leading and trailing spaces
Example
Original
Patients @ high-risk = 25% (p < 0.05)
Cleaned
Patients high-risk 25% (p < 0.05)
Dataset Subsampling
Approximately 8,000 examples were sampled from the original training split.
Custom Data Split
The sampled dataset was randomly divided using the following ratio:
| Split | Ratio |
|---|---|
| Train | 70% |
| Validation | 15% |
| Test | 15% |
This produces custom train, validation, and test partitions suitable for instructional workflows.
Dataset Structure
Features
| Feature | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
abstract_id |
string/int | Identifier for the source abstract |
sentence_id |
int | Position of the sentence within the abstract |
text |
string | Cleaned sentence text |
label |
string | Rhetorical role label |
Labels
The labels correspond to rhetorical sections commonly found in biomedical abstracts.
Classes include:
- background
- objective
- methods
- results
- conclusions
Refer to the original PubMed RCT dataset documentation for detailed label definitions.
Intended Uses
Suitable For
- Text classification tutorials
- Transformer fine-tuning demonstrations
- Scikit-learn baseline experiments
- Experiment tracking demonstrations (e.g., Weights & Biases)
- Educational notebooks and workshops
Not Recommended For
- Benchmarking against published results
- Clinical decision-making
- Medical research conclusions
- Performance comparisons with models trained on the full PubMed RCT dataset
Limitations
- Contains only a subset of the original dataset.
- Custom train/validation/test splits differ from the original benchmark.
- Text cleaning may remove symbols that could carry useful scientific information.
- Performance results obtained on this dataset should not be directly compareable with results reported on the original PubMed RCT benchmark.
- Intended for educational and demonstration purposes only.
