# Summary
`aya-telugu-paraphrase` is an open source dataset of instruct-style records generated from the Telugu split of [ai4bharat/IndicXParaphrase](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ai4bharat/IndicXParaphrase/viewer/te/test) dataset. This was created as part of [Aya Open Science Initiative](https://sites.google.com/cohere.com/aya-en/home) from Cohere For AI.

This dataset can be used for any purpose, whether academic or commercial, under the terms of the [Apache 2.0](https://opensource.org/license/apache-2-0) License.

Supported Tasks:
- Training LLMs
- Synthetic Data Generation

# Dataset Overview
`aya-telugu-paraphrase` is a corpus of more than 1.5k records generated by conversion of Telugu split of [ai4bharat/IndicXParaphrase](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ai4bharat/IndicXParaphrase/viewer/te/test) dataset into Instruct-Style format. This Dataset can be used for the following task:
- Given a sentence, generate a sentence with similar meaning.

# Intended Uses
While immediately valuable for instruction fine tuning large language models, as a corpus of instruction prompts, this dataset also presents a valuable opportunity for synthetic data generation in the methods. For example, prompt-completions could be submitted as few-shot examples to a large open language model to generate sentence and corresponding paraphrased sentence.

# Dataset

## Load with Datasets
To load this dataset with Datasets, you'll just need to install Datasets as `pip install datasets --upgrade` and then use the following code:

```python
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset('SuryaKrishna02/aya-telugu-paraphrase')
```

## Purpose of Collection
Telugu is a low-resource language where there no paraphase generation instruct-style dataset to the best of my knowledge. This was created as a part of [Aya Open Science Initiative](https://sites.google.com/cohere.com/aya-en/home) from Cohere For AI to make sure Telugu is well represented in the space of AI/ML. Unlike other datasets that are limited to non-commercial use, this dataset can be used, modified, and extended for any purpose, including academic or commercial applications.

## Sources
- **[ai4bharat/IndicXParaphrase](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ai4bharat/IndicXParaphrase/viewer/te/test)**: Converted this dataset into Instruct-style prompts and completions.

## Templates
For the creation of instruct-style prompts and completions from the original dataset, the following one templates was used:
1. Given a sentence, generate a sentence with similar meaning.
```python
Prompt:
("ఈ క్రింది వాక్యం మరోరీతిలో రాయి:" /
"ఈ వాక్యం మరోరీతిలో రాయి:" /
"ఈ వాక్యం మరోరీతిలో రాయి:" /
"ఈ క్రింది వాక్యం ఇంకొలాగా రాయి:" /
"ఈ వాక్యం ఇంకొలాగా రాయి:" /
"ఈ వాక్యం ఇంకొలాగా రాయి:" /
"ఈ క్రింది వాక్యం మరోరకంగా రాయి:" /
"ఈ వాక్యం మరోరకంగా రాయి:" /
"ఈ వాక్యం మరోరకంగా రాయి:")
{{Original Sentence}}

Completion:
{{Paraphrased Sentence}}
```
