CrediBench Cleaned
CDB Cleaned is the pre-processed version of CrediBench. This text data is curated for pre-training, as such we follow general pre-processing steps recommended before pre-training on text.
Summary
Included Content
domain: Domain name from the website.wet_record_txt: Text content from the domain's corresponding CommonCrawl WET file.language: The language of the text content, and the predicted confidence of said language.
Pre-Processing
CDB Cleaned is pre-processed with nemo-curator. We processed the text with the following steps:
Filtering
Text-Cleaning
UnicodeReformatter: Uses ftfy to fix broken Unicode characters.NewlineNormalizer: Uses regex to replace 3 or more consecutive newline characters in each document with only 2 newline characters.UrlRemover: uses regex to remove all URLs in each document.
Deduplication
Fuzzy Deduplication: Uses MinHash and Locality Sensitive Hashing to find and remove near-duplicated documents.
Labelling
Language Management
FastText Language ID: To label multilingual content at scale we utilize the FastText language identification model.
Quality Labelling
FastText Quality Filtering: We train our own quality filterer here, and label each row with a quality rating.
Statistics
File Sizes
The filtering reduces the text size as follows: 
Deduplication
The deduplication step identifies large clusters of repeated text. Overall there is about 3,615,276 domains with duplicate text.
Largest Clusters
The largets cluster of 122,822 domains corresponds to a CloudFlare Scrape Shield message. This occurs because cloudflare protects addressed on websites from spam bots/web-scrapers.

The second largest cluster at 54,347 domains corresponds to a similar Web Application Firewall, or some anti-bot service. The third largest cluster is also such a message.

Language Distribution
CDB has quite a diverse distribution of languages, overall there is about 143 languages. English, German and Chinese are the top 3. English only occurs in 14,506,809 domains.
Domain Coverage
When squashing CDB-Dec, Nov, Oct into one large graph after filtering we get about 56.4% domains that contain text, 21.2% contain english text, and 43.6% contain NO text.
Tokens
Using xlm-roberta-base tokenizer to estimate the number of tokens by sampling:
Token-length distribution
Computed over a sample of 2,164,574 domains from CDB-Dec, Oct, Nov.
| Statistic | Tokens |
|---|---|
| Min | 3 |
| Max | 702,667 |
| Mean | 1,354 |
Truncation rate by sequence length
Percentage of texts that would lose tokens at each candidate seq_len.
| seq_len | Truncation rate | Texts truncated |
|---|---|---|
| 64 | 97.24% | 2,104,865 |
| 128 | 93.36% | 2,020,754 |
| 256 | 83.54% | 1,808,331 |
| 384 | 73.55% | 1,591,996 |
| 512 | 64.45% | 1,394,971 |
| 1024 | 37.96% | 821,725 |
Note: 1,394,971 texts (64.4%) exceed XLM-R's 512 max and will be truncated regardless of the seq_len chosen.
On average we will have the following documents to tokens:
| CDB | Domains | Tokens |
|---|---|---|
| Dec | 43M | 58B |
| Nov | 39M | 52B |
| Oct | 33M | 44B |
| Total | 115M | 155B |
| Total Unique | 37M | 155B |
CDB v. OGB-MAG240M
If we consider CDB across Dec, Nov, Oct as a static graph versus OGB-MAG240M (largest text-attributed graph dataset to-date.)
| Dataset | Domains | Tokens |
|---|---|---|
| CDB | 37M | 155B |
| OGB-MAG240M | 120M | 30B |
