SciMDIX Dataset

Dataset Description

SciMDIX is a bilingual dataset containing scientific abstracts in Russian and Kazakh across four domains: IT, Linguistics, Medicine, and Psychology. It is designed for advanced Information Extraction tasks and is divided into two main configurations:

  1. ner_re: Contains annotations for Named Entity Recognition (NER) and Relation Extraction (RE).
  2. aspects: Contains aspect-level markup (AIM, MATERIAL, METHOD, RESULT, TASK, TOOL, USAGE) for the same texts.

Data Structure

Each configuration contains four splits: train_ru, train_kz, test_ru, and test_kz. Note: You can identify the domain of a specific text by looking at the prefix in the filename column (it-, ling-, med-, psy-).

Configuration: ner_re

  • filename: Original text file name (includes domain prefix).
  • abstract: The raw text of the scientific abstract.
  • annotation: Text with inline BRAT-style markup [Entity|ID|TYPE].
  • entities: Extracted entities in BRAT format.
  • relations: Extracted relations between entities.

Configuration: aspects

  • filename: Original text file name (includes domain prefix).
  • abstract: The raw text of the scientific abstract.
  • aspect_annotation: Text with inline aspect markup [Span|ID|TYPE].
  • aspects: Extracted aspects in BRAT format.

How to use

You can load the dataset using the datasets library. Specify the configuration (ner_re or aspects) and the split you want to use:

from datasets import load_dataset

# Load the Russian Train split for NER and Relation Extraction
ds_ner_ru_train = load_dataset("tvbat/SciMDIX", "ner_re", split="train_ru")
print(ds_ner_ru_train[0])

# Load the Kazakh Test split for Aspects
ds_asp_kz_test = load_dataset("tvbat/SciMDIX", "aspects", split="test_kz")
