## Dataset Description
A collection of long-running (80+ episodes) science fiction TV show plot synopses, scraped from Fandom.com wikis. Collected Nov 2017. Each episode is considered a "story".

Contains plot summaries from: 
- Babylon 5 (https://babylon5.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page) - 84 stories
- Doctor Who (https://tardis.fandom.com/wiki/Doctor_Who_Wiki) - 311 stories
- Doctor Who spin-offs - 95 stories
- Farscape (https://farscape.fandom.com/wiki/Farscape_Encyclopedia_Project:Main_Page) - 90 stories
- Fringe (https://fringe.fandom.com/wiki/FringeWiki) - 87 stories
- Futurama (https://futurama.fandom.com/wiki/Futurama_Wiki) - 87 stories
- Stargate (https://stargate.fandom.com/wiki/Stargate_Wiki) - 351 stories
- Star Trek (https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Star_Trek) - 701 stories
- Star Wars books (https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page) - 205 stories, each book is a story
- Star Wars Rebels - 65 stories 
- X-Files (https://x-files.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page) - 200 stories

Total: 2276 stories

Dataset is "eventified" and generalized (see LJ Martin, P Ammanabrolu, X Wang, W Hancock, S Singh, B Harrison, and MO Riedl. Event Representations for Automated Story Generation with Deep Neural Nets, Thirty-Second AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI), 2018. for details on these processes.) and split into train-test-validation sets—separated by story so that full stories will stay together—for converting events into full sentences.

## Format
| Dataset Split | Number of Stories in Split | Number of Lines in Split |
| ------------- |--------------------------- |------------------------- |
| Train         | 1738                       | 257,184                  |
| Validation    | 194                        | 32,855                   |
| Test          | 450                        | 30,938                   |

## Raw Dataset Structure
### _all-sci-fi-data.txt_
* Each line of the stories contains data in the format: 5-tuple events in a list (subject, verb, direct object, modifier noun, preposition) ||| generalized 5-tuple events in a list ||| original sentence ||| generalized sentence

e.g.,
``
[[u'Voyager', u'run', 'EmptyParameter', u'deuterium', u'out'], [u'Voyager', u'force', u'go', 'EmptyParameter', 'EmptyParameter'], [u'Voyager', u'go', 'EmptyParameter', u'mode', u'into']]|||[['<VESSEL>0', 'function-105.2.1', 'EmptyParameter', "Synset('atom.n.01')", u'out'], ['<VESSEL>0', 'urge-58.1-1', u'escape-51.1-1', 'EmptyParameter', 'EmptyParameter'], ['<VESSEL>0', u'escape-51.1-1', 'EmptyParameter', "Synset('statistic.n.01')", u'into']]|||The USS Voyager is running out of deuterium as a fuel and is forced to go into Gray mode.|||the <VESSEL>0 is running out of Synset('atom.n.01') as a Synset('matter.n.03') and is forced to go into Synset('horse.n.01') Synset('statistic.n.01').
``
* Stories end with &lt;EOS> (end of story) tag on its own line
* On the line after &lt;EOS>, there is a defaultdict of entities found in the story by tag and in order (e.g. the second entity in the "&lt;ORGANIZATION>" list in the dictionary would be &lt;ORGANIZATION>1 in the story above&mdash;index starts at 0). These lines start with "%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%".

e.g.,
``
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%defaultdict(<type 'list'>, {'<ORGANIZATION>': ['seven of nine', 'silver blood'], '<LOCATION>': ['sickbay', 'astrometrics', 'paris', 'cavern', 'vorik', 'caves'], '<DATE>': ['an hour ago', 'now'], '<MISC>': ['selected works', 'demon class', 'electromagnetic', 'parises', 'mimetic'], '<DURATION>': ['less than a week', 'the past four years', 'thirty seconds', 'an hour', 'two hours'], '<NUMBER>': ['two', 'dozen', '14', '15'], '<ORDINAL>': ['first'], '<PERSON>': ['tom paris', 'harry kim', 'captain kathryn janeway', 'tuvok', 'chakotay', 'jirex', 'neelix', 'the doctor', 'seven', 'ensign kashimuro nozawa', 'green', 'lt jg elanna torres', 'ensign vorik'], '<VESSEL>': ['uss voyager', 'starfleet']})
``

### Files in _Test-Train-Val_ Directory
* File names: all-sci-fi-val.txt, all-sci-fi-test.txt, & all-sci-fi-train.txt
* Each line of the stories contains data in the format: 5-tuple events in a list ||| generalized 5-tuple events in a list ||| original sentence ||| generalized sentence

e.g.,
``
[[u'Voyager', u'run', 'EmptyParameter', u'deuterium', u'out'], [u'Voyager', u'force', u'go', 'EmptyParameter', 'EmptyParameter'], [u'Voyager', u'go', 'EmptyParameter', u'mode', u'into']]|||[['<VESSEL>0', 'function-105.2.1', 'EmptyParameter', "Synset('atom.n.01')", u'out'], ['<VESSEL>0', 'urge-58.1-1', u'escape-51.1-1', 'EmptyParameter', 'EmptyParameter'], ['<VESSEL>0', u'escape-51.1-1', 'EmptyParameter', "Synset('statistic.n.01')", u'into']]|||The USS Voyager is running out of deuterium as a fuel and is forced to go into Gray mode.|||the <VESSEL>0 is running out of Synset('atom.n.01') as a Synset('matter.n.03') and is forced to go into Synset('horse.n.01') Synset('statistic.n.01').
``
* No &lt;EOS> tags or dictionary.
* Separated 80-10-10 for train-test-val, but by story instead of individual lines.


### Files in _Input_OutputFiles_ Directory
**Files ending with _*\_input.txt_**
* 5-tuple generalized event on each line; formatted as a string instead of a list

e.g.,
``
<VESSEL>0 function-105.2.1 EmptyParameter Synset('atom.n.01') out
``

**Files ending with _*\_output.txt_**
* Corresponding generalized sentence for events in the matching _input.txt file

e.g.,
``
the <VESSEL>0 is running out of Synset('atom.n.01') as a Synset('matter.n.03') and is forced to go into Synset('horse.n.01') Synset('statistic.n.01').
``


### Files in _OriginalStoriesSeparated_ Directory
* Contains unedited, unparsed original stories scraped from the respective Fandom wikis.
* Each line is a story with sentences space-separated. After each story, there is a &lt;EOS> tag on a new line.
* There is one file for each of the 11 domains listed above.
