Dataset Structure

Data Fields

  • id: ID of the data example
  • title: Is the Wikipedia article's title
  • paragraphs: Is the ranked list of paragraphs from the set of crawled texts
  • summary: Is constituted by a list of sentences together with their corresponding topic label

Dataset Curation

Original Curation

Original Curation Rationale

The dataset is a subset of the WikiSum (Liu et al., 2018) dataset focusing on summaries of entities in three domains (Film, Company, and Animal). It is multi-document summarisation where input-output pairs for each example entity are created as follows. The input is a set of paragraphs collected from i) documents in the Reference section of the entity's Wikipedia page plus ii) documents collected from the top ten search results after querying Google search engine with the entity name. The output summary is the Wikipedia abstract for the entity.

Communicative Goal

Generate descriptive summaries with specific domains, where certain topics are discussed and generally in specific orders.

Sourced from Different Sources

yes

Language Data

How was Language Data Obtained?

Other

Topics Covered

The dataset and task focuses on summaries for entities in three domains: Company, Film, and Animal.

Data Validation

not validated

Data Preprocessing

Summary sentences are associated with a topic label. There is a topic model for each domain.

Was Data Filtered?

not filtered

Structured Annotations

Additional Annotations?

automatically created

Annotation Service?

no

Annotation Values

Each summary sentences was annotated with a topic label. There is a topic model for each of the three domains. This was used to guide a hierarchical decoder.

Any Quality Control?

validated by data curators

Quality Control Details

Manual inspection of a sample of topics assigned to sentences. The number of topics was selected based on the performance of the summarisation model.

Consent

Any Consent Policy?

no

Justification for Using the Data

The dataset is base on Wikipedia and referenced and retrieved documents crawled from the Web.

Private Identifying Information (PII)

Contains PII?

unlikely

Any PII Identification?

no identification

Maintenance

Any Maintenance Plan?

no

Broader Social Context

Usage of Models based on the Data

no

Impact on Under-Served Communities

Addresses needs of underserved Communities?

no

Discussion of Biases

Any Documented Social Biases?

yes

Links and Summaries of Analysis Work

This dataset is based on Wikipedia and thus biases analysis on other Wikipedia-based datasets are potentially true for WikiCatSum. For instance, see analysis for the ToTTo dataset here [1].
