Dataset Card for Flores 200

Dataset Summary

FLORES is a benchmark dataset for machine translation between English and low-resource languages.

The creation of FLORES-200 doubles the existing language coverage of FLORES-101. Given the nature of the new languages, which have less standardization and require more specialized professional translations, the verification process became more complex. This required modifications to the translation workflow. FLORES-200 has several languages which were not translated from English. Specifically, several languages were translated from Spanish, French, Russian and Modern Standard Arabic. Moreover, FLORES-200 also includes two script alternatives for four languages. FLORES-200 consists of translations from 842 distinct web articles, totaling 3001 sentences. These sentences are divided into three splits: dev, devtest, and test (hidden). On average, sentences are approximately 21 words long.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

Multilingual Machine Translation

Refer to the Dynabench leaderboard for additional details on model evaluation on FLORES-101 in the context of the WMT2021 shared task on Large-Scale Multilingual Machine Translation . Flores 200 is an extention of this.

Languages

The dataset contains parallel sentences for 200 languages, as mentioned in the original Github page for the project. Languages are identified with the ISO 639-3 code (e.g. eng , fra , rus ) plus an additional code describing the script (e.g., "eng_Latn", "ukr_Cyrl"). See the webpage for code descriptions .

Use the configuration all to access the full set of parallel sentences for all the available languages in a single command.

Use a hyphenated pairing to get two langauges in one datapoint (e.g., "eng_Latn-ukr_Cyrl" will provide sentences in the format below).

Dataset Structure

Data Instances

A sample from the dev split for the Ukrainian language ( ukr_Cyrl config) is provided below. All configurations have the same structure, and all sentences are aligned across configurations and splits.

    'sentence': 'У понеділок, науковці зі Школи медицини Стенфордського університету оголосили про винайдення нового діагностичного інструменту, що може сортувати клітини за їх видами: це малесенький друкований чіп, який можна виготовити за допомогою стандартних променевих принтерів десь по одному центу США за штуку.',

When using a hyphenated pairing or using the all function, data will be presented as follows:

The text is provided as-in the original dataset, without further preprocessing or tokenization.
