## About the Dataset
### Dataset Summary
The present dataset is a result of processing the [IBM Debater Claim Stance Dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ibm/claim_stance) to create representative samples. The size has been reduced to roughly 100 entries, enabling the benchmarking of models for relation-based argument mining tasks with limited resources.
You can also find here the associated benchmarking [framework](https://github.com/coding-kelps/liaisons-experiments) and [results](https://huggingface.co/datasets/coding-kelps/liaisons-experiments-results).
The sample also modifies the original dataset to achieve a more balanced plurality of stances and topics, and creates a new "unrelated" class in argument relation (following a simple rule-based data augmentation algorithm). Further details on the preprocessing can be found on [GitHub](https://github.com/coding-kelps/liaisons-preprocess).
### Dataset Structure
* parent_argument - The first argument that states a position regarding a topic
* child_argument - Another argument that is compared to the parent argument
* relation - The argumentative relation of the child argument to the parent argument. It can either be support/attack in the binary split or support/attack/unrelated in the ternary split
## About Contributions
As mentioned earlier, this work is part of an academic project for the validation of my Master's Degree at Heriot-Watt University, preventing me from accepting any contributions until the final release of my project. Thank you for your understanding.
## Associated Works
This work is part of a collection of works whose ultimate goal is to deliver a framework to automatically analyze social media content (e.g., X, Reddit) to extract their argumentative value and predict their relations, leveraging Large Language Models' (LLMs) abilities:
- [liaisons](https://github.com/coding-kelps/liaisons) (the developed client for social media content analysis)
- [liaisons-preprocess](https://github.com/coding-kelps/liaisons-preprocess) (the preprocessing of the original IBM dataset)
- [liaisons-experiments](https://github.com/coding-kelps/liaisons-experiments) (the benchmarking framework that the sample is intended to be used with)
- [liaisons-experiments-results](https://huggingface.co/datasets/coding-kelps/liaisons-experiments-results) (the obtained results with this benchmarking)
- [mantis-shrimp](https://github.com/coding-kelps/mantis-shrimp) (the configuration-as-code used to set up my workstation for this project)
