MaintNorm Dataset Card
Overview
The MaintNorm dataset is a collection of 12,000 English language texts, specifically focusing on short texts extracted from maintenance work orders from three major mining organisations in Australia. This dataset is annotated for both lexical normalization and token-level entity tagging tasks, making it a valuable resource for natural language processing research and applications in industrial contexts.
For further information about the annotation process and dataset characteristics, refer to the MaintNorm paper or vitit the GitHub repository
Dataset Structure
This dataset includes data from three distinct company-specific sources (company_a, company_b, company_c), along with a combined dataset that integrates data across these sources. This structure supports both granular and comprehensive analyses.
Masking Scheme
To address privacy and data specificity, the following token-level entity tags are used:
<id>: Asset identifiers, for example, ENG001, rd1286<sensitive>: Sensitive information specific to organisations, including proprietary systems, third-party contractors, and names of personnel.<num>: Numerical entities, such as 8, 7001223<date>: Representations of dates, either in numerical form like 10/10/2023 or phrase form such as 8th Dec
Dataset Instances
The dataset adopts a standard normalisation format similar to that used in the WNUT shared tasks, with each text resembling the format seen in CoNLL03: tokens are separated by newlines, and each token is accompanied by its normalised or masked counterpart, separated by a tab.
