In order to raise the bar for non-English QA, we are releasing a high-quality, human-labeled German QA dataset consisting of 13 722 questions, incl. a three-way annotated test set. The creation of GermanQuAD is inspired by insights from existing datasets as well as our labeling experience from several industry projects. We combine the strengths of SQuAD, such as high out-of-domain performance, with self-sufficient questions that contain all relevant information for open-domain QA as in the NaturalQuestions dataset. Our training and test datasets do not overlap like other popular datasets and include complex questions that cannot be answered with a single entity or only a few words.

German Traffic Sign Recognition

## Overview

German Traffic Sign Recognition is a dataset for object detection tasks - it contains Traffic Signs annotations for 1,102 images.

This page introduces the 10k German News Articles Dataset (10kGNAD) german topic classification dataset. The 10kGNAD is based on the One Million Posts Corpus and avalaible under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. You can download the dataset here.

Why a German dataset?

English text classification datasets are common. Examples are the big AG News, the class-rich 20 Newsgroups and the large-scale DBpedia ontology datasets for topic classification and for example the commonly used IMDb and Yelp datasets for sentiment analysis. Non-english datasets, especially German datasets, are less common. There is a collection of sentiment analysis datasets assembled by the Interest Group on German Sentiment Analysis. However, to my knowlege, no german topic classification dataset is avaliable to the public.

Due to grammatical differences between the English and the German language, a classifyer might be effective on a English dataset, but not as effectiv on a German dataset. The German language has a higher inflection and long compound words are quite common compared to the English language. One would need to evaluate a classifyer on multiple German datasets to get a sense of it's effectivness.

The dataset

The 10kGNAD dataset is intended to solve part of this problem as the first german topic classification dataset. It consists of 10273 german language news articles from an austrian online newspaper categorized into nine topics. These articles are a till now unused part of the One Million Posts Corpus.

In the One Million Posts Corpus each article has a topic path. For example Newsroom/Wirtschaft/Wirtschaftpolitik/Finanzmaerkte/Griechenlandkrise. The 10kGNAD uses the second part of the topic path, here Wirtschaft, as class label. In result the dataset can be used for multi-class classification.

I created and used this dataset in my thesis to train and evaluate four text classifyers on the German language. By publishing the dataset I hope to support the advancement of tools and models for the German language. Additionally this dataset can be used as a benchmark dataset for german topic classification.

Numbers and statistics

As in most real-world datasets the class distribution of the 10kGNAD is not balanced. The biggest class Web consists of 1678, while the smalles class Kultur contains only 539 articles. However articles from the Web class have on average the fewest words, while artilces from the culture class have the second most words.

Splitting into train and test

I propose a stratifyed split of 10% for testing and the remaining articles for training. To use the dataset as a benchmark dataset, please used the train.csv and test.csv files located in the project root.

Code

Python scripts to extract the articles and split them into a train- and a testset avaliable in the code directory of this project. Make sure to install the requirements. The original corpus.sqlite3 is required to extract the articles (download here (compressed) or here (uncompressed)).

The German Lipreading dataset consists of 250,000 publicly available videos of the faces of speakers of the Hessian Parliament, which was processed for word-level lip reading using an automatic pipeline. The format is similar to that of the English language Lip Reading in the Wild (LRW) dataset, with each H264-compressed MPEG-4 video encoding one word of interest in a context of 1.16 seconds duration, which yields compatibility for studying transfer learning between both datasets. Choosing video material based on naturally spoken language in a natural environment ensures more robust results for real-world applications than artificially generated datasets with as little noise as possible. The 500 different spoken words ranging between 4-18 characters in length each have 500 instances and separate MPEG-4 audio- and text metadata-files, originating from 1018 parliamentary sessions. Additionally, the complete TextGrid files containing the segmentation information of those sessions are also included. The size of the uncompressed dataset is 16GB.

Introducing the German Product Image Dataset - a diverse and comprehensive collection of images meticulously curated to propel the advancement of text recognition and optical character recognition (OCR) models designed specifically for the German language.

Dataset Contain & Diversity

Containing a total of 2000 images, this German OCR dataset offers diverse distribution across different types of front images of Products. In this dataset, you'll find a variety of text that includes product names, taglines, logos, company names, addresses, product content, etc. Images in this dataset showcase distinct fonts, writing formats, colors, designs, and layouts.

To ensure the diversity of the dataset and to build a robust text recognition model we allow limited (less than five) unique images from a single resource. Stringent measures have been taken to exclude any personally identifiable information (PII) and to ensure that in each image a minimum of 80% of space contains visible German text.

Images have been captured under varying lighting conditions – both day and night – along with different capture angles and backgrounds, to build a balanced OCR dataset. The collection features images in portrait and landscape modes.

All these images were captured by native German people to ensure the text quality, avoid toxic content and PII text. We used the latest iOS and Android mobile devices above 5MP cameras to click all these images to maintain the image quality. In this training dataset images are available in both JPEG and HEIC formats.

Metadata

Along with the image data, you will also receive detailed structured metadata in CSV format. For each image, it includes metadata like image orientation, county, language, and device information. Each image is properly renamed corresponding to the metadata.

The metadata serves as a valuable tool for understanding and characterizing the data, facilitating informed decision-making in the development of German text recognition models.

A dataset of German parliament debates covering 74 years of plenary protocols across all 16 state parliaments of Germany as well as the German Bundestag. The debates are separated into individual speeches which are enriched with meta data identifying the speaker as a member of the parliament (mp).

When using this data set, please cite the original paper "Lange, K.-R., Jentsch, C. (2023). SpeakGer: A meta-data enriched speech corpus of German state and federal parliaments. Proceedings of the 3rd Workshop on Computational Linguistics for Political Text Analysis@KONVENS 2023.".

The meta data is separated into two different types: time-specific meta-data that contains only information for a legislative period but can change over time (e.g. the party or constituency of an mp) and meta-data that is considered fixed, such as the birth date or the name of a speaker. The former information are stored aong with the speeches as it is considered temporal information of that point in time, but are additionally stored in the file all_mps_mapping.csv if there is the need to double-check something. The rest of the meta-data are stored in the file all_mps_meta.csv. The meta-data from this file can be matched with a speech by comparing the speaker ID-variable "MPID". The speeches of each parliament are saved in a csv format. Along with the speeches, they contain the following meta-data:

• Period: int. The period in which the speech took place
• Session: int. The session in which the speech took place
• Chair: boolean. The information if the speaker was the chair of the plenary session
• Interjection: boolean. The information if the speech is a comment or an interjection from the crowd
• Party: list (e.g. ["cdu"] or ["cdu", "fdp"] when having more than one speaker during an interjection). List of the party of the speaker or the parties whom the comment/interjection references
• Consituency: string. The consituency of the speaker in the current legislative period
• MPID: int. The ID of the speaker, which can be used to get more meta-data from the file all_mps_meta.csv

The file all_mps_meta.csv contains the following meta information:

• MPID: int. The ID of the speaker, which can be used to match the mp with his/her speeches.
• WikipediaLink: The Link to the mps Wikipedia page
• WikiDataLink: The Link to the mps WikiData page
• Name: string. The full name of the mp.
• Last Name: string. The last name of the mp, found on WikiData. If no last name is given on WikiData, the full name was heuristically cut at the last space to get the information neccessary for splitting the speeches.
• Born: string, format: YYYY-MM-DD. Birth date of the mp. If an exact birth date is found on WikiData, this exact date is used. Otherwise, a day in the year of birth given on Wikipedia is used.
• SexOrGender: string. Information on the sex or gender of the mp. Disclaimer: This infomation was taken from WikiData, which does not seem to differentiate between sex or gender.
• Occupation: list. Occupation(s) of the mp.
• Religion: string. Religious believes of the mp.
• AbgeordnetenwatchID: int. ID of the mp on the website Abgeordnetenwatch
