## Dataset Description
- **Website:** https://github.com/facebookresearch/MLDoc


### Dataset Summary

For document classification, we use the Multilingual Document Classification Corpus (MLDoc) [(Schwenk and Li, 2018)](http://www.lrec-conf.org/proceedings/lrec2018/pdf/658.pdf), a cross-lingual document classification dataset covering 8 languages. We use the Spanish portion to evaluate our models on monolingual classification as part of the EvalEs Spanish language benchmark. The corpus consists of 14,458 news articles from Reuters classified in four categories: Corporate/Industrial, Economics, Government/Social and Markets.

This dataset can't be downloaded straight from HuggingFace as it requires signing specific agreements. The detailed instructions on how to download it can be found in this [repository](https://github.com/facebookresearch/MLDoc).

## Dataset Creation

### Curation Rationale

[N/A] 

### Source Data

The source data is from the Reuters Corpus. In 2000, Reuters Ltd made available a large collection of Reuters News stories for use in research and development of natural language processing, information retrieval, and machine learning systems. This corpus, known as "Reuters Corpus, Volume 1" or RCV1, is significantly larger than the older, well-known Reuters-21578 collection heavily used in the text classification community.

For more information visit the paper [(Lewis et al., 2004)](https://www.jmlr.org/papers/volume5/lewis04a/lewis04a.pdf).

#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization

For more information visit the paper [(Lewis et al., 2004)](https://www.jmlr.org/papers/volume5/lewis04a/lewis04a.pdf).

#### Who are the source language producers?
