# Dataset Card for Low-Resource-Language-Dataset
|
| 6 |
+
|
| 7 |
+
This dataset is designed to aid Natural Language Processing (NLP) research on low-resource languages, particularly Urdu. It includes structured datasets and preprocessing tools curated from the BBC Urdu website.
|
| 8 |
+
|
| 9 |
+
## Dataset Details
|
| 10 |
+
|
| 11 |
+
### Dataset Description
|
| 12 |
+
|
| 13 |
+
This dataset contains articles, summaries, and topics scraped from [BBC Urdu](https://www.bbc.com/urdu). It is structured into training and testing datasets for machine learning applications. The data is preprocessed and tokenized to support text summarization and other NLP tasks.
|
| 14 |
+
|
| 15 |
+
- **Curated by:** Subayyal Sheikh and contributors.
|
| 16 |
+
- **Language(s):** Urdu.
|
| 17 |
+
- **License:** Apache 2.0 License.
|
| 18 |
+
|
| 19 |
+
### Dataset Sources
|
| 20 |
+
|
| 21 |
+
- **Repository:** [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/subayyal802/Low-Resource-Language-Dataset)
|
| 22 |
+
- **Paper:** *Breaking Language Barriers: Dataset Development for Low Resource Language*
|
| 23 |
+
- **Demo:** None (optional if available)
|
| 24 |
+
|
| 25 |
+
## Uses
|
| 26 |
+
|
| 27 |
+
### Direct Use
|
| 28 |
+
|
| 29 |
+
The dataset is ideal for:
|
| 30 |
+
- Text summarization
|
| 31 |
+
- Language modeling
|
| 32 |
+
- Topic classification
|
| 33 |
+
|
| 34 |
+
### Out-of-Scope Use
|
| 35 |
+
|
| 36 |
+
This dataset may not be suitable for tasks outside of Urdu language processing. Users are advised against malicious or inappropriate use of the data.
|
| 37 |
+
|
| 38 |
+
## Dataset Structure
|
| 39 |
+
|
| 40 |
+
The dataset is structured as follows:
|
| 41 |
+
- **JSONL Files**:
|
| 42 |
+
- `Articles`, `Topics`, and `Summaries` (raw and processed).
|
| 43 |
+
- Training and test splits (`Articles-train`, `Articles-test`, etc.).
|
| 44 |
+
- Preprocessed articles (`BBCArticle512`, `BBCArticle512J`, etc.).
|
| 45 |
+
- **Text Files**:
|
| 46 |
+
- Token lengths (`Length-Article-512`, `Length-Summary-512`, etc.).
|
| 47 |
+
- Logs and ratio calculations (`Log`, `Ratios-512`, `TestRatio-512`).
|
| 48 |
+
|
| 49 |
+
## Dataset Creation
|
| 50 |
+
|
| 51 |
+
### Curation Rationale
|
| 52 |
+
|
| 53 |
+
The dataset was created to address the lack of resources for NLP research in the Urdu language. It facilitates diverse NLP applications.
|
| 54 |
+
|
| 55 |
+
### Source Data
|
| 56 |
+
|
| 57 |
+
#### Data Collection and Processing
|
| 58 |
+
|
| 59 |
+
Data was collected using scraping scripts and processed to normalize and tokenize text into usable formats.
|
| 60 |
+
|
| 61 |
+
#### Who are the source data producers?
|
| 62 |
+
|
| 63 |
+
The source data is curated from publicly available articles on [BBC Urdu](https://www.bbc.com/urdu).
|
| 64 |
+
|
| 65 |
+
### Annotations
|
| 66 |
+
|
| 67 |
+
The dataset does not include human annotations; all content is machine-extracted and processed.
|
| 68 |
+
|
| 69 |
+
#### Personal and Sensitive Information
|
| 70 |
+
|
| 71 |
+
The dataset contains publicly available data and does not include personal or sensitive information.
|
| 72 |
+
|
| 73 |
+
## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
|
| 74 |
+
|
| 75 |
+
- The dataset may contain biases inherent in its source, such as topic selection by the BBC Urdu editorial team.
|
| 76 |
+
- Summaries and topics may not align perfectly with the user's context.
|
| 77 |
+
|
| 78 |
+
### Recommendations
|
| 79 |
+
|
| 80 |
+
Users should consider dataset limitations and apply domain knowledge when using the data for specific tasks.
