## Dataset Description
### Dataset Summary
The CA-PT Parallel Corpus is a Catalan-Portuguese dataset of parallel sentences. The dataset was created to support Catalan NLP tasks, e.g., Machine Translation.
### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
The dataset can be used to train a model for Multilingual Machine Translation. Success on this task is typically measured by achieving a high BLEU score.
This dataset was used to train Projecte Aina’s Catalan-Portuguese machine translation model (projecte-aina/mt-aina-ca-pt).
### Languages
The texts in the dataset are in Catalan and Portuguese.
## Dataset Structure
Two separated txt files are provided with sentences in the same order.
### Data Splits
The dataset contains a single split: `train`.
## Dataset Creation
### Source Data
The dataset is a combination of the following datasets:
| Dataset | Sentences | Sentences after Cleaning|
|-------------------|----------------|-------------------|
| CCMatrix v1 | 12.674.684 | 3.765.459|
| WikiMatrix | 358.873 | 317.649 |
| GNOME | 5.211 | 1.752|
| KDE4 | 166.208 | 117.828 |
| QED | 53.635 | 43.736 |
| TED2020 v1 | 48.942 | 41.461 |
| OpenSubtitles | 384.142 | 235.604 |
| GlobalVoices| 4.035 | 3.430|
| Tatoeba | 754 | 723 |
| Europarl | 1.692.106 | 3.765.459 |
| **Total** | **15.391.745** | **6.159.631** |
All corpora except Europarl were collected from [Opus](https://opus.nlpl.eu/). The Europarl corpus is a synthetic parallel corpus created from the original Spanish-Catalan corpus by [SoftCatalà](https://github.com/Softcatala/Europarl-catalan).
### Data preparation
All datasets are deduplicated and filtered to remove any sentence pairs with a cosine similarity of less than 0.75. This is done using sentence embeddings calculated using [LaBSE](https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/LaBSE). The filtered datasets are then concatenated to form a final corpus of 6.159.631 and before training the punctuation is normalized using a modified version of the join-single-file.py script from [SoftCatalà](https://github.com/Softcatala/nmt-models/blob/master/data-processing-tools/join-single-file.py)
### Personal and Sensitive Information
No anonymisation process was performed.
## Considerations for Using the Data
### Social Impact of Dataset
The purpose of this dataset is to help develop Machines Translation tasks for low-resource languages such as Catalan.
### Discussion of Biases
We are aware that since part of the data comes from unreliable web pages and non-curated texts, some biases may be present in the dataset. Nonetheless, we have not applied any steps to reduce their impact.
### Other Known Limitations
The dataset contains data of a general domain. Application of this dataset in more specific domains such as biomedical, legal etc. would be of limited use.
