Dataset Card for Clean(maybe) Indonesia mC4

Dataset Summary

A thoroughly cleaned version of the Indonesia split of the multilingual colossal, cleaned version of Common Crawl's web crawl corpus (mC4). Based on the Common Crawl dataset. The original version was prepared by AllenAI, hosted at the address https://huggingface.co./datasets/allenai/c4.

Data Fields

The data contains the following fields:

• url: url of the source as a string
• text: text content as a string
• timestamp: timestamp of extraction as a string

Data Splits

You can load any subset like this:

from datasets import load_dataset

mc4_id_tiny = load_dataset("munggok/mc4-id", "tiny")

Since splits are quite large, you may want to traverse them using the streaming mode available starting from 🤗 Datasets v1.9.0:

from datasets import load_dataset

mc4_id_full_stream = load_dataset("munggok/mc4-id", "full", split='train', streaming=True)
print(next(iter(mc4_id_full_stream))) # Prints the example presented above

Dataset Creation

Refer to the original paper for more considerations regarding the choice of sources and the scraping process for creating mC4.

Considerations for Using the Data

Discussion of Biases

Despite the cleaning procedure aimed at removing vulgarity and profanity, it must be considered that model trained on this scraped corpus will inevitably reflect biases present in blog articles and comments on the Internet. This makes the corpus especially interesting in the context of studying data biases and how to limit their impacts.

Additional Information

Dataset Curators

Authors at AllenAI are the original curators for the mc4 corpus.

Licensing Information
