## Overview |
|
|
|
This is a small dataset of English-Belarusian sentence pairs sampled from the largest parallel corpora in [OPUS](https://opus.nlpl.eu/results/en&be/corpus-result-table) (100 random instances from each of the following: NLLB, HPLT, CCMatrix, CCAligned) and manually labeled for correctness by a speaker of Belarusian. The taxonomy of labels follows [Kreutzer et al. 2022](https://doi.org/10.1162/tacl_a_00447): |
|
- CC: correct translation, natural sentence |
|
- CB: correct translation, boilerplate or low quality |
|
- CS: correct translation, short |
|
- X: incorrect translation |
|
- WL: wrong language |
|
- NL: not a language |
|
|
|
Where appropriate, the labels are accompanied by free-form comments. |

|
## Data sampling |
|
|
|
In Unix shell, execute: |
|
```bash |
|
sample_sentence_pairs () { |
|
mkdir -p $1 |
|
cd $1 |
|
wget https://object.pouta.csc.fi/OPUS-$1/$2/moses/be-en.txt.zip |
|
unzip be-en.txt.zip |
|
paste $1.be-en.en $1.be-en.be | shuf -n 100 > $1.be-en.sample100.txt |
|
ls | grep -v sample100 | xargs rm |
|
cd .. |
|
} |
|
|
|
sample_sentence_pairs NLLB v1 |
|
sample_sentence_pairs HPLT v2 |
|
sample_sentence_pairs CCMatrix v1 |
|
sample_sentence_pairs CCAligned v1 |
|
|
|
mv */*.txt . |
|
rm -r NLLB HPLT CCMatrix CCAligned |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Then in Python: |
|
```python3 |
|
import csv |
|
|
|
def to_csv(filename): |
|
with open(filename) as f: |
|
data = [line.strip().split("\t") for line in f] |
|
assert all(len(x) == 2 for x in data) |
|
with open("processed_%s.csv" % filename, "w") as f: |
|
csv_writer = csv.writer(f) |
|
csv_writer.writerow(["en", "be"]) |
|
csv_writer.writerows(data) |
|
|
|
to_csv("NLLB.be-en.sample100.txt") |
|
to_csv("HPLT.be-en.sample100.txt") |
|
to_csv("CCMatrix.be-en.sample100.txt") |
|
to_csv("CCAligned.be-en.sample100.txt") |
|
``` |
|
|
