Dataset Files

Download the dataset from here.

The dataset contains :

• Simplified text from 48 Wikipedia pages of the states in the US. Additionally, all the sentences in these documents are put together in a single file processed_state_sentences.csv and are assigned a unique sentence id that is used in summary json files.
• Intent-based summaries created by human annotators.

Each datapoint file in the directory user_summary_jsons contains a json containing summaries of Wikipedia pages of eight states with following keys:

• intent : Summarization intent provided to human annotators for generating the summary
• summaries: List of summary jsons for eight states assigned to the annotator. Each json in the list contains following keys:
  • state_name: Name of the state
  • sentence_ids: Global ids of sentences (wrt processed_state_sentences.csv) present in the summary
  • sentences: List of sentences present in the summary
  • use_keywords: Keywords used by the annotator to search the document when creating summaries
