Sinhala Perplexity Test Dataset

Dataset Description

This dataset contains 500 sentence pairs in Sinhala, provided in two scripts: Unicode Sinhala and Romanized Sinhala. It is intended for evaluating perplexity and benchmarking language models on Sinhala text.

Dataset Structure

The dataset consists of two fields:

  • sinhala_unicode: Sinhala sentences written in Unicode Sinhala script.
  • sinhala_romanized: Corresponding sentences transliterated into Romanized Sinhala.

Each entry in the dataset corresponds to one pair of sentences.

How to Use the Dataset

You can easily load the dataset using the datasets library:

from datasets import load_dataset

# Load the dataset
dataset = load_dataset("Minuri/sinhala-perplexity-test-dataset")

# Access the first example
example = dataset['data'][0]
print("Unicode Sentence:", example['sinhala_unicode'])
print("Romanized Sentence:", example['sinhala_romanized'])
