# Sampled Big Patent Dataset
This is a sampled Trelis/big_patent_sample dataset containing rows of data with descriptions shorter than or equal to 100,000 characters in length.

--- Sampled from Trelis/big_patent_sampled ---

# Sampled big_patent Dataset
This is a sampled big_patent dataset - sampled down for shorter fine-tunings.

The data is sampled with the aim of providing an even distribution across data lengths. The distribution is quite flat up until 1 million characters in length, making the dataset good for training on lengths up to 250,000 tokens.

### Dataset Summary

BIGPATENT, consisting of 1.3 million records of U.S. patent documents along with human written abstractive summaries.
Each US patent application is filed under a Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) code.
There are nine such classification categories:
- a: Human Necessities
- b: Performing Operations; Transporting
- c: Chemistry; Metallurgy
- d: Textiles; Paper
- e: Fixed Constructions
- f: Mechanical Engineering; Lightning; Heating; Weapons; Blasting
- g: Physics
- h: Electricity
- y: General tagging of new or cross-sectional technology

Current defaults are 2.1.2 version (fix update to cased raw strings) and 'all' CPC codes:
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("big_patent")  # default is 'all' CPC codes
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", "all")  # the same as above
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", "a")  # only 'a' CPC codes
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", codes=["a", "b"])
```

To use 1.0.0 version (lower cased tokenized words), pass both parameters `codes` and `version`:
```python
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", codes="all", version="1.0.0")
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", codes="a", version="1.0.0")
ds = load_dataset("big_patent", codes=["a", "b"], version="1.0.0")
```

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

Each instance contains a pair of `description` and `abstract`. `description` is extracted from the Description section of the Patent while `abstract` is extracted from the Abstract section.
```
{
  'description': 'FIELD OF THE INVENTION  \n       [0001]     This invention relates to novel calcium phosphate-coated implantable medical devices and processes of making same. The unique calcium-phosphate coated implantable medical devices minimize...',
  'abstract': 'This invention relates to novel calcium phosphate-coated implantable medical devices...'
}
```

### Data Fields

- `description`: detailed description of patent.
- `abstract`: Patent abastract.
