# Dataset Card for Ginco

### Dataset Summary

The Slovene Web genre identification corpus GINCO 1.0 contains 1,002 web texts (478,969 words), manually annotated with genres.
The corpus allows for automated genre identification and genre analyses as well as other web corpora research.

This dataset was extracted from the manually-annotated subcorpus (GINCO-1.0-suitable.json.zip) from the original GINCO dataset,
published on the [CLARIN.SI repository](http://hdl.handle.net/11356/1467).

The dataset is split into 602 training, 200 validation, and 200 test texts by the original authors.

The texts in the suitable subset are annotated with up to three genre categories,
where the primary label is the most prevalent, and secondary and tertiary labels denote presence of additional genre(s).
The secondary and tertiary labels are available for multilabel classification,
while for most use cases, we suggest that only the primary label is used.

The labels are provided in three levels of detail (three category sets), allowing experiments with the full set (24 labels),
set of 21 labels (labels with less than 5 instances are merged with label Other) and set of 12 labels (similar labels are merged).
For most use cases, we suggest that the smallest set -- set of 12 labels is used (`primary_level_3`),
and that the category "Other" is regarded as a "throw-away" category to detect texts
for which the classifier could not predict any of the concrete labels.

Additionally, the corpus contains some metadata about the text (e.g. url, domain, year)
and its paragraphs (e.g. near-duplicates and their usefulness for the genre identification).

More details on dataset construction, manual annotation and results of machine learning experiments
are provided in the paper ["The GINCO Training Dataset for Web Genre Identification of Documents Out in the Wild"](https://aclanthology.org/2022.lrec-1.170/) (Kuzman et al., 2022).
