# Preprocessed SemEval-2010 Benchmark dataset for Keyphrase Generation

## About

SemEval-2010 is a dataset for benchmarking keyphrase extraction and generation models.
The dataset is composed of 144 abstracts of scientific papers collected from the [ACM Digital Library](https://dl.acm.org/).
Keyphrases were annotated by readers and combined with those provided by the authors.
Details about the SemEval-2010 dataset can be found in the original paper [(kim et al., 2010)][kim-2010].

This version of the dataset was produced by [(Boudin et al., 2016)][boudin-2016] and provides four increasingly sophisticated levels of document preprocessing:

  * `lvl-1`: default files provided by the SemEval-2010 organizers.

  * `lvl-2`: for each file, we manually retrieved the original PDF file from 
    the ACM Digital Library. We then extract the enriched textual content of 
    the PDF files using an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system and 
    perform document logical structure detection using ParsCit v110505. We use
    the detected logical structure to remove author-assigned keyphrases and 
    select only relevant elements : title, headers, abstract, introduction, 
    related work, body text and conclusion. We finally apply a systematic 
    dehyphenation at line breaks.

  * `lvl-3`: we further abridge the input text from level 2 preprocessed 
    documents to the following~: title, headers, abstract, introduction, 
    related work, background and conclusion.

  * `lvl-4`: we abridge the input text from level 3 preprocessed documents using
    an unsupervised summarization technique. We keep the title and abstract
    and select the most content bearing sentences from the remaining contents.

Reference (indexer-assigned) keyphrases are also categorized under the PRMU (<u>P</u>resent-<u>R</u>eordered-<u>M</u>ixed-<u>U</u>nseen) scheme as proposed in [(Boudin and Gallina, 2021)][boudin-2021].
Text pre-processing (tokenization) is carried out using `spacy` (`en_core_web_sm` model) with a special rule to avoid splitting words with hyphens (e.g. graph-based is kept as one token).
Stemming (Porter's stemmer implementation provided in `nltk`) is applied before reference keyphrases are matched against the source text.
Details about the process can be found in `prmu.py`.

## Content and statistics

The dataset is divided into the following three splits:

| Split      | # documents | #words | # keyphrases | % Present | % Reordered | % Mixed | % Unseen |
| :--------- |------------:|-------:|-------------:|----------:|------------:|--------:|---------:|
| Train      |         144 |      - |            - |         - |           - |       - |        - |
| Test       |         100 |      - |            - |         - |           - |       - |        - |

The following data fields are available :

- **id**: unique identifier of the document.
- **title**: title of the document.
- **abstract**: abstract of the document.
- **keyphrases**: list of reference keyphrases.
- **prmu**: list of <u>P</u>resent-<u>R</u>eordered-<u>M</u>ixed-<u>U</u>nseen categories for reference keyphrases.
