MixtureVitae-CulturaY: A Permissive Multilingual Dataset of 75 Languages

*** NOTE: We are currently uploading the data. Not all languages from Cultura-Y are yet available. ***

Dataset Summary

From the team that brought you CulturaX and CulturaY, we present an early version of MixturaVitae-CulturaY, a filtered subset of the multilingual dataset CulturaY that we believe is more likely to be copyright permissive and usable. CulturaY is in turn based on HPLT v1.1 dataset. Ultimately, this dataset is based on Common Crawl and the Internet Archive.

We have filtered to find websites with what we believe are government domain names, international organization domain names like the UN and europa.eu, and creative commons licensed data. While we strongly believe that fair use protects machine learning on webcrawled data in the United States, this may not be the case in other countries. Thus we hve created this filtered version. Please note though that because laws may vary, some countries may not permit free usage of government materials, or a government webiste might have a specific prohibition against usages, such as republicaiton. We are exploring ways to detect this and flag in the dataset.

For example, the webiste https://presidency.gov.sd/eng/page/Yawor, while a governmental website has the following footer: 

 The Republican Palace All rights reserved. | Privacy Policy It's not allowed to re-publish any of the content of this website or transmitted in any way, whether electronic or otherwise without the prior permission from the press office of the Presidency of the Republic - The Republican Palace

Notes

We used .gov/ .gov.* .gouv.* and .int/, among other patterns in the URL filtering. This means that a URL like 'http://transcoder.usablenet.com/tt/www.ers.usda.gov/amber-waves/2006-november/new-phytosanitary-regulations-allow-higher-imports-of-avocados.aspx' will be a match. We believe that references to government URLs in a company's URL will likely mean the source is also governmental data. However, you may wish to confirm the URL field for strictly the type or URLs you wish to use (e.g., filter all .com data from the URLs).

Dataset structure

The dataset has a total of 8 columns, including:

The column 'cc' will tell you if we detected the keywords associated with creative commons license in the header or footer of the data. We have not confirmed by hand the prescense of the keyword means the page is in fact CC licensed. Please confirm for yourself the type of license you wish to use (CC-BY, CC-BY-SA, CC-BY-NC, etc). There is also a column 'en_text' which is a short 200 character beginning of the text translate to English using Google translate.

  • The columns document_lang, text, url, cc, en_text will be the main columns in this dataset.
  • the remaining columns id, document_lang, scores, langs belong to the original document in the HPLT V1.1 dataset, retained for debugging purposes. and will be removed in the future.

Therefore, when using, please only utilize the two columns text and url.
