## Dataset Description

- **Homepage:** https://huggingface.co/datasets/allenai/c4
- **Paper:** https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.10683

### Dataset Summary

This dataset is the result of applying perplexity sampling to the Spanish portion of mC4 using [`mc4-sampling`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/bertin-project/mc4-sampling/). Please, refer to [BERTIN Project](https://huggingface.co/bertin-project/bertin-roberta-base-spanish).

You can load the mC4 Spanish sampled like this:

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

for config in ("random", "stepwise", "gaussian"):
    mc4es = load_dataset(
        "bertin-project/mc4-es-sampled",
        config,
        split="train",
        streaming=True
    ).shuffle(buffer_size=1000)
    for sample in mc4es:
        print(config, sample)
        break       
```
Alternatively, you can bypass the `datasets` library and quickly download (\~1.5hrs, depending on connection) a specific config in the same order used to pre-train BERTIN models in a massive (\~200GB) JSON-lines files:

```python
import io
import gzip
import json
import sys

import requests
from tqdm import tqdm

_DATA_URL_TRAIN = "https://huggingface.co/datasets/bertin-project/mc4-es-sampled/resolve/main/mc4-es-train-50M-{config}-shard-{index:04d}-of-{n_shards:04d}.json.gz"


def main(config="stepwise"):
    data_urls = [
        _DATA_URL_TRAIN.format(
            config=config,
            index=index + 1,
            n_shards=1024,
        )
        for index in range(1024)
    ]
    with open(f"mc4-es-train-50M-{config}.jsonl", "w") as f:
        for dara_url in tqdm(data_urls):
            response = requests.get(dara_url)
            bio = io.BytesIO(response.content)
            with gzip.open(bio, "rt", encoding="utf8") as g:
                for line in g:
                    json_line = json.loads(line.strip())
                    f.write(json.dumps(json_line) + "\
")


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main(sys.argv[1])
```

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

mC4-es-sampled is mainly intended for reproducibility purposes of the BERTIN Project and to pretrain language models and word representations on medium budgets.

### Languages

The dataset only supports the Spanish language.

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

An example form the `Gaussian` config:

```python
{'timestamp': '2018-10-20T06:20:53Z', 'text': 'Ortho HyaluroTop 200 aporta el colágeno y ácido hialurónico que, con la edad, se producen en menor cantidad. La vitamina C promueve la producción de colágeno para mantener la piel sana y protege a las células contra los radicales libres causados ??por la contaminación ambiental y los rayos UV.', 'url': 'https://www.farmaciagaleno.com/orthonat-hyalurotop-200-30-capsulas'}
```

### Data Fields

The data have several fields:

- `url`: url of the source as a string
- `text`: text content as a string
- `timestamp`: timestamp as a string

### Data Splits

The resulting mC4 subsets for Spanish are reported in this table:

| config   | train   |
|:---------|:--------|
| stepwise | 50M     |
| random   | 50M     |
| gaussian | 50M     |

The split `validation` is exactly the same as the original `mc4` dataset.

## Dataset Creation

### Curation Rationale

This dataset was built from the original [`mc4`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mc4) by applying perplexity-sampling via [`mc4-sampling`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/bertin-project/mc4-sampling) for Spanish.

## Additional Information

### Dataset Curators

Frequently used web sources such as Common Crawl might contain enough noise to make this pretraining sub-optimal. In this work, we experiment with different sampling methods from the Spanish version of mC4, and present a novel data-centric technique which we name perplexity sampling that enables the pre-training of language models in roughly half the amount of steps and using one fifth of the data. The resulting models are comparable to the current state-of-the-art, and even achieve better results for certain tasks. Our work is proof of the versatility of Transformers, and paves the way for small teams to train their models on a limited budget.},
