| # QualiText |
|
|
| QualiText is a balanced English text-classification dataset for studying text |
| origin and text quality. Each example contains a `text` field and a `label` |
| field. The dataset has five labels with the same number of examples in each |
| class. |
|
|
| ## Labels |
|
|
| | Label | Description | |
| |---|---| |
| | `human` | Human-authored text from Wikipedia and 4chan. | |
| | `machine_generated` | Machine-generated text from the Qwen3.8-Max, GLM-5.2, and Kimi-K3 distillation corpus. | |
| | `corrupted` | Wikipedia text modified with deterministic word deletions, swaps, duplications, or typo-like edits. | |
| | `marketing` | Marketing-oriented text from FineWeb-Marketing. | |
| | `low_quality` | Spam, ham/phishing-email corpus examples, and synthetic text created by removing punctuation, lowercasing, and shuffling words. | |
|

| ## Data Format |
|
|
| ```text |
| text: string |
| label: ClassLabel or string |
| ``` |
|
|
| Example: |
|
|
| ```json |
| { |
| "text": "Example document text.", |
| "label": "human" |
| } |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## Intended Uses |
|
|
| QualiText can be used for: |
|
|
| - Training baseline text-origin classifiers |
| - Evaluating robustness to common text corruption |
| - Comparing text-quality classification strategies |
| - Prototyping data filtering and moderation models |
|
|
| It should not be used as the sole basis for deciding whether a person used an |
| AI system or whether content is trustworthy. |
|
|
| ## Limitations and Biases |
|
|
| - The labels represent dataset provenance and synthetic transformations, not |
| definitive proof of authorship. |
| - The human class contains platform-specific and encyclopedic writing styles. |
| - The marketing and low-quality classes may contain strong lexical shortcuts. |
| - Synthetic corruption does not represent every real-world form of corruption. |
| - The machine-generated class may reflect the style and artifacts of its |
| teacher models and prompts. |
| - Source datasets may contain offensive, private, copyrighted, or otherwise |
| sensitive material. Review examples before deployment. |
| - Performance may not generalize to languages, domains, or writing styles not |
| represented in the sources. |
|
|
| ## Licensing |

| each source dataset may differ and continue to apply to the corresponding |
| examples. Users are responsible for reviewing the source licenses and meeting |
| their attribution, privacy, copyright, and acceptable-use obligations. |
