|
<!-- Provide a quick summary of the dataset. --> |
|
|
|
This dataset is a filtered version of [BookCorpus](https://huggingface.co/datasets/bookcorpus/bookcorpus) containing only gender-neutral words. |
|
|
|
```python |
|
geneutral = load_dataset('aieng-lab/geneutral', trust_remote_code=True, split='train') |
|
``` |
|
|
|

|
8498 | no one sitting near me could tell that i was seething with rage . |
|
8500 | by now everyone knew we were an item , the thirty-five year old business mogul , and the twenty -three year old pop sensation . |
|
8501 | we 'd been able to keep our affair hidden for all of two months and that only because of my high security . |
|
8503 | i was n't too worried about it , i just do n't like my personal life splashed across the headlines , but i guess it came with the territory . |
|
8507 | i 'd sat there prepared to be bored out of my mind for the next two hours or so . |
|
8508 | i 've seen and had my fair share of models over the years , and they no longer appealed . |
|
8512 | when i finally looked up at the stage , my breath had got caught in my lungs . |
|
8516 | i pulled my phone and cancelled my dinner date and essentially ended the six-month relationship i 'd been barely having with another woman . |
|
8518 | when i see something that i want , i go after it . |
|
8529 | if i had anything to say about that , it would be a permanent thing , or until i 'd had my fill at least . |

## Dataset Details |
|
|
|
<!-- Provide the basic links for the dataset. --> |
|
|
|
- **Repository:** [github.com/aieng-lab/gradiend](https://github.com/aieng-lab/gradiend) |
|
- **Paper:** [](https://arxiv.org/abs/2502.01406) |
|
- **Original Data**: [BookCorpus](https://huggingface.co/datasets/bookcorpus/bookcorpus) |
|
|
|
> **__NOTE:__** This dataset is derived from BookCorpus, for which we do not have publication rights. Therefore, this repository only provides indices referring to gender-neutral entries within the BookCorpus dataset on Hugging Face. By using `load_dataset('aieng-lab/geneutral', trust_remote_code=True, split='train')`, both the indices and the full BookCorpus dataset are downloaded locally. The indices are then used to construct the GENEUTRAL dataset. The initial dataset generation takes a few minutes, but subsequent loads are cached for faster access. |
|
|
|
## Uses |
|
|
|
<!-- Address questions around how the dataset is intended to be used. --> |
|
|
|
This dataset is suitable for training and evaluating language models. For example, its lack of gender-related words makes it ideal for assessing language modeling capabilities in both gender-biased and gender-neutral models during masked language modeling (MLM) tasks, allowing for an evaluation independent of gender bias. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Dataset Creation |
|
|
|
We generated this dataset by filtering the BookCorpus dataset, leaving only entries matching the following criteria: |
|
- Each entry contains at least 50 characters |
|
- No name of [aieng-lab/namextend](https://huggingface.co/datasets/aieng-lab/geneutral) |
|
- No gender-specific pronoun is contained (he/she/him/her/his/hers/himself/herself) |
|
- No gender-specific noun is contained according to the 2421 plural-extended entries of this [gendered-word dataset](https://github.com/ecmonsen/gendered_words) |
