  # KabPunct
38
 
39
- **Punctuation and capitalisation restoration corpus for Kabyle** (Taqbaylit, `kab`, Latin
40
- script). Every row is one sentence broken into words with two label sequences: which mark
41
- follows each word (`NONE`, `COMMA`, `PERIOD`, `QUESTION`, `COLON`) and how the word is cased
42
- (`LOWER`, `UPPER_INIT`).
43
 
44
- It is the training and evaluation corpus for
 
 
 
45
  [`agbalu/Belaid-31M`](https://huggingface.co/agbalu/Belaid-31M), which restores punctuation
46
- at **0.793 macro-F1** and non-initial proper nouns at **0.933 F1** on the `test` split. It is,
47
- as far as we can establish, **the first labelled punctuation restoration corpus for Kabyle or
48
- any Berber language.**

101
- ### Punctuation
 
 
 
 
 
102
 
103
- Five classes derived from what survives decontamination at usable support:
104
 
105
- | label | character | notes |
106
  |---|---|---|
107
- | `NONE` | | No mark follows this word |
108
- | `COMMA` | `,` | |
109
- | `PERIOD` | `.` | `!` and `;` fold here: together 0.41% of tokens, and the corpus carries identical sentences under both, so the distinction is not recoverable |
110
- | `QUESTION` | `?` | |
111
- | `COLON` | `:` | 43 examples in test; support is low and the score should be quoted with that named |
112
 
113
- ### Casing
 
114
 
115
- Two classes:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
116
 
117
  | label | meaning |
118
  |---|---|
119
  | `LOWER` | Word begins lowercase |
120
  | `UPPER_INIT` | First character is uppercase (sentence-initial or proper noun) |
121
 
122
- `ALL_CAPS` was a third class. It occurs once in dev and three times in test; the model that
123
- carried it emitted fourteen spurious all-capitals words for the three real ones. Restoring an
124
- acronym to full capitals is out of scope and the class is absent.
 
125
 
126
  ## Decontamination
127
 
128
- **58.2% of Common Voice Kabyle transcripts also appear in AƔBALU-Text v1**, because most are
129
- Tatoeba sentences and Tatoeba is in the corpus. Every clip whose text appears in the text
130
- corpus is excluded from `dev` and `test`, which decontaminates the `Masinissa-31M` encoder
131
- used by `Belaid-31M` at the same time (it was pretrained on the same file). The rows scored
132
- in the `Belaid-31M` card are unseen by both the punctuation heads and the backbone.
133
 
134
- A transcript carrying no final mark is dropped rather than labelled `NONE`. Reading them
135
- settles what they are: no punctuation and no capitals — contributor typing habit, not Kabyle
136
- grammar. Training on them teaches transcriber style, not language.
137
 
138
  `opus.nllb-kab` (871,663 records) is excluded from training entirely. Its record boundaries
139
- were chosen by an NLLB bitext miner rather than a writer; a record can end mid-sentence, and
140
- sentence-final punctuation is exactly the label being predicted.
 
 
141
 
142
- ## Out-of-domain split (`ood`)
 
 
143
 
144
- The `ood` split is `hf.imsidag.kabyle-corpus-hca` 45,028 records of long-form Kabyle
145
- prose, held out of training entirely. Common Voice records are one sentence each by
146
- construction; HCA records average 22 words across several sentences. The model's performance
147
- degradation on `ood` (macro-F1 0.635 vs 0.793 on test) is documented in the `Belaid-31M`
148
- card and explained there: it learned *one period at the end* from single-sentence training
149
- examples, and that pattern breaks on multi-sentence prose.
150
 
151
- Both splits are reported because a model evaluated only in its training domain has not been
152
- evaluated.

164
 
165
- **No inter-annotator agreement has been measured for Kabyle punctuation.** Nobody has

  # KabPunct
39
 
40
+ A punctuation and capitalisation restoration corpus for Kabyle (Taqbaylit, `kab`, Latin
41
+ script), from the [AƔBALU](https://huggingface.co/agbalu) project.
 
 
42
 
43
+ **1,318,707 word-labelled sentences** drawn from the full AƔBALU-Text v1 corpus and
44
+ speaker-disjoint Common Voice Kabyle splits. Every sentence is broken into lowercased ASR
45
+ tokens with two parallel label sequences: which punctuation mark follows each word, and how
46
+ the word is capitalised. It is the training and evaluation corpus for
47
  [`agbalu/Belaid-31M`](https://huggingface.co/agbalu/Belaid-31M), which restores punctuation
48
+ at **0.793 macro-F1** on the held-out `test` split.
 
 
49

+ It is, as far as we can establish, **the first labelled punctuation restoration corpus for

+ ## Label Scheme
100
+
101
+ ### Punctuation
102
+
103
+ | label | character | support in `test` |
104
+ |---|---|---|
105
+ | `NONE` | — | 20,904 |

+ | `PERIOD` | `.` | 4,357 |
107
+ | `QUESTION` | `?` | 861 |

+ | `COMMA` | `,` | 804 |
109
+ | `COLON` | `:` | 43 |
110
+
111
+ `!` and `;` fold into `PERIOD`. Together they account for 0.41% of tokens, and the corpus
112
+ contains identical sentences under both marks — the distinction is not recoverable from text
113
+ alone, and collapsing them costs less than carrying a class that cannot be learned.
114
+
115
+ ### Casing
116
 
117
  | label | meaning |
118
  |---|---|
119
  | `LOWER` | Word begins lowercase |
120
  | `UPPER_INIT` | First character is uppercase (sentence-initial or proper noun) |

122
+ `ALL_CAPS` was trialled as a third class. It occurs once in dev and three times in test
123
+ too few to learn without spurious generalisation. The model that carried it emitted fourteen
124
+ all-capitals words for the three real ones. Restoring an acronym to full capitals is out
125
+ of scope, and the class is absent.
126
 
127
  ## Decontamination
128
 
129
+ **58.2% of Common Voice Kabyle transcripts also appear in AƔBALU-Text v1**, because the
130
+ majority are Tatoeba sentences and Tatoeba is in the corpus. Every clip whose text is found
131
+ in the text corpus is removed from `dev` and `test`. This simultaneously decontaminates the
132
+ `Masinissa-31M` encoder used by `Belaid-31M`, which was pretrained on the same file. The
133
+ rows in the `Belaid-31M` evaluation are unseen by both the punctuation heads and the backbone.
134
 
135
+ A transcript without a sentence-final mark is dropped rather than labelled `NONE`. Those
136
+ transcripts carry neither punctuation nor capitals — transcriber habit, not Kabyle grammar.
 
137
 
138
  `opus.nllb-kab` (871,663 records) is excluded from training entirely. Its record boundaries
139
+ were chosen by a bitext miner rather than a writer; a record can end mid-sentence, and
140
+ sentence-final punctuation is the predicted label.
141
+
142
+ ## Out-of-Domain Split (`ood`)
143
 
144
+ The `ood` split is `hf.imsidag.kabyle-corpus-hca` — 45,028 records of continuous long-form
145
+ Kabyle prose, held out of training entirely. Common Voice records are one sentence each;
146
+ HCA records average 22 words across several sentences.
147
 
148
+ The `Belaid-31M` card reports this split explicitly alongside `test`. A model evaluated only
149
+ in its training domain has not been evaluated.
