# Dataset Card for Dataset Name

This dataset is a part of the [LEAF](https://leaf.cmu.edu/) benchmark. 
The Shakespeare dataset is built from [The Complete Works of William Shakespeare](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/100) with the goal of the next character prediction.

## Dataset Details

### Dataset Description

Each sample is comprised of a text of 80 characters (x) and a next character (y). 

- **Curated by:** [LEAF](https://leaf.cmu.edu/)
- **Language(s) (NLP):** English
- **License:** BSD 2-Clause License

### Dataset Sources

The code from the original repository was adopted to post it here. 

- **Repository:** https://github.com/TalwalkarLab/leaf
- **Paper:** https://arxiv.org/abs/1812.01097

## Uses

This dataset is intended to be used in Federated Learning settings. 
A pair of a character and a play  denotes a unique user in the federation.

### Direct Use
This dataset is designed to be used in FL settings. We recommend using [Flower Dataset](https://flower.ai/docs/datasets/) (flwr-datasets) and [Flower](https://flower.ai/docs/framework/) (flwr).

To partition the dataset, do the following. 
1. Install the package.
```bash
pip install flwr-datasets
```
2. Use the HF Dataset under the hood in Flower Datasets.
```python
from flwr_datasets import FederatedDataset
from flwr_datasets.partitioner import NaturalIdPartitioner

fds = FederatedDataset(
    dataset="flwrlabs/shakespeare",
    partitioners={"train": NaturalIdPartitioner(partition_by="character_id")}
)
partition = fds.load_partition(partition_id=0)
```

## Dataset Structure

The dataset contains only train split. The split in the paper happens at each node only (no centralized dataset). 
The dataset is comprised of columns: 
* `character_id`: str - id denoting a pair of character + play (node in federated learning settings)
* `x`: str - text of 80 characters
* `y`: str - single character following the `x`

Please note that the data is temporal. Therefore, caution is needed when dividing it so as not to leak the information from the train set.

## Dataset Creation

### Curation Rationale

This dataset was created as a part of the [LEAF](https://leaf.cmu.edu/) benchmark.

### Source Data

[The Complete Works of William Shakespeare](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/100)

#### Data Collection and Processing

For the preprocessing details, please refer to the original paper and the source code.

#### Who are the source data producers?

William Shakespeare
