- Dataset: Tweet Topic Dataset
- Domain: Twitter
- Number of Class: 19
Dataset Summary
This is the official repository of TweetTopic ("Twitter Topic Classification , COLING main conference 2022"), a topic classification dataset on Twitter with 19 labels. Each instance of TweetTopic comes with a timestamp which distributes from September 2019 to August 2021. See cardiffnlp/tweet_topic_single for single label version of TweetTopic. The tweet collection used in TweetTopic is same as what used in TweetNER7. The dataset is integrated in TweetNLP too.
Preprocessing
We pre-process tweets before the annotation to normalize some artifacts, converting URLs into a special token {{URL}} and non-verified usernames into {{USERNAME}}.
For verified usernames, we replace its display name (or account name) with symbols {@}.
For example, a tweet
Get the all-analog Classic Vinyl Edition
of "Takin' Off" Album from @herbiehancock
via @bluenoterecords link below:
http://bluenote.lnk.to/AlbumOfTheWeek
is transformed into the following text.
Get the all-analog Classic Vinyl Edition
of "Takin' Off" Album from {@herbiehancock@}
via {@bluenoterecords@} link below: {{URL}}
A simple function to format tweet follows below.
import re
from urlextract import URLExtract
extractor = URLExtract()
def format_tweet(tweet):
# mask web urls
urls = extractor.find_urls(tweet)
for url in urls:
tweet = tweet.replace(url, "{{URL}}")
# format twitter account
tweet = re.sub(r"\b(\s*)(@[\S]+)\b", r'\1{\2@}', tweet)
return tweet
target = """Get the all-analog Classic Vinyl Edition of "Takin' Off" Album from @herbiehancock via @bluenoterecords link below: http://bluenote.lnk.to/AlbumOfTheWeek"""
target_format = format_tweet(target)
print(target_format)
'Get the all-analog Classic Vinyl Edition of "Takin\' Off" Album from {@herbiehancock@} via {@bluenoterecords@} link below: {{URL}}'
Data Splits
| split | number of texts | description |
|---|---|---|
| test_2020 | 573 | test dataset from September 2019 to August 2020 |
| test_2021 | 1679 | test dataset from September 2020 to August 2021 |
| train_2020 | 4585 | training dataset from September 2019 to August 2020 |
| train_2021 | 1505 | training dataset from September 2020 to August 2021 |
| train_all | 6090 | combined training dataset of train_2020 and train_2021 |
| validation_2020 | 573 | validation dataset from September 2019 to August 2020 |
| validation_2021 | 188 | validation dataset from September 2020 to August 2021 |
| train_random | 4564 | randomly sampled training dataset with the same size as train_2020 from train_all |
| validation_random | 573 | randomly sampled training dataset with the same size as validation_2020 from validation_all |
| test_coling2022_random | 5536 | random split used in the COLING 2022 paper |
| train_coling2022_random | 5731 | random split used in the COLING 2022 paper |
| test_coling2022 | 5536 | temporal split used in the COLING 2022 paper |
| train_coling2022 | 5731 | temporal split used in the COLING 2022 paper |
For the temporal-shift setting, model should be trained on train_2020 with validation_2020 and evaluate on test_2021.
In general, model would be trained on train_all, the most representative training set with validation_2021 and evaluate on test_2021.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To get a result that is comparable with the results of the COLING 2022 Tweet Topic paper, please use train_coling2022 and test_coling2022 for temporal-shift, and train_coling2022_random and test_coling2022_random fir random split (the coling2022 split does not have validation set).
