|
`OBELICS` is an open, massive, and curated collection of interleaved image-text web documents, containing 141M English documents, 115B text tokens, and 353M images, extracted from Common Crawl dumps between February 2020 and February 2023. The collection and filtering steps are described in our [paper](https://huggingface.co/papers/2306.16527). |
|
|
|
Interleaved image-text web documents are a succession of text paragraphs interleaved by images, such as web pages that contain images. Models trained on these web documents outperform vision and language models trained solely on image-text pairs on various benchmarks. They can also generate long and coherent text about a set of multiple images. As an example, we trained [IDEFICS](https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceM4/idefics-80b), a visual language model that accepts arbitrary sequences of image and text inputs and produces text outputs. |
|
|
|
We provide an [interactive visualization](https://atlas.nomic.ai/map/f2fba2aa-3647-4f49-a0f3-9347daeee499/ee4a84bd-f125-4bcc-a683-1b4e231cb10f) of OBELICS that allows exploring the content of OBELICS. The map shows a subset of 11M of the 141M documents. |

## Data Fields |
|
|
|
An example of a sample looks as follows: |
|
``` |
|
# The example has been cropped |
|
|
|
{ |
|
'images': [ |
|
'https://cdn.motor1.com/images/mgl/oRKO0/s1/lamborghini-urus-original-carbon-fiber-accessories.jpg', |
|
None |
|
], |
|
'metadata': '[{"document_url": "https://lamborghinichat.com/forum/news/vw-group-allegedly-receives-offer-to-sell-lamborghini-for-9-2-billion.728/", "unformatted_src": "https://cdn.motor1.com/images/mgl/oRKO0/s1/lamborghini-urus-original-carbon-fiber-accessories.jpg", "src": "https://cdn.motor1.com/images/mgl/oRKO0/s1/lamborghini-urus-original-carbon-fiber-accessories.jpg", "formatted_filename": "lamborghini urus original carbon fiber accessories", "alt_text": "VW Group Allegedly Receives Offer To Sell Lamborghini For $9.2 Billion", "original_width": 1920, "original_height": 1080, "format": "jpeg"}, null]', |
|
'general_metadata': '{"url": "https://lamborghinichat.com/forum/news/vw-group-allegedly-receives-offer-to-sell-lamborghini-for-9-2-billion.728/", "warc_filename": "crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-25/segments/1623488528979.69/warc/CC-MAIN-20210623011557-20210623041557-00312.warc.gz", "warc_record_offset": 322560850, "warc_record_length": 17143}', |
|
'texts': [ |
|
None, |
|
'The buyer would get everything, including Lambo\'s headquarters.\n\nThe investment groupQuantum Group AG has submitted a€7.5 billion ($9.2 billion at current exchange rates) offer to purchase Lamborghini from Volkswagen Group, Autocar reports. There\'s no info yet about whether VW intends to accept the offer or further negotiate the deal.\n\nQuantum ... Group Chief Executive Herbert Diess said at the time.' |
|
] |
|
} |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Each sample is composed of the same 4 fields: `images`, `texts`, `metadata`, and `general_metadata`. `images` and `texts` are two lists of the same size, where for each index, one element and only one is not `None`. For example, for the interleaved web document `<image_1>text<image_2>`, we would find `[image_1, None, image_2]` in `images` and `[None, text, None]` in `texts`. |
|
|
|
The images are replaced by their URLs, and the users need to download the images, for instance, with the library [img2dataset](https://github.com/rom1504/img2dataset). |
|
|
|
`metadata` is the string representation of a list containing information about each of the images. It has the same length as `texts` and `images` and logs for each image relevant information such as original source document, unformatted source, alternative text if present, etc. |
|
|
|
`general_metadata` is the string representation of a dictionary containing the URL of the document, and information regarding the extraction from Common Crawl snapshots. |
|
|
|
## Size and Data Splits |
|
|
|
There is only one split, `train`, that contains 141,047,697 documents. |
|
|
|
`OBELICS` with images replaced by their URLs weighs 666.6 GB (😈) in arrow format and 377 GB in the uploaded `parquet` format. |
|

|
## Considerations for Using the Data |
|
|
|
|
|
### Discussion of Biases |
|
|
|
A subset of this dataset `train`, of ~50k was evaluated using the Data Measuremnts Tool, with a particular focus on the nPMI metric |
|
> nPMI scores for a word help to identify potentially problematic associations, ranked by how close the association is. |
|
> nPMI bias scores for paired words help to identify how word associations are skewed between the selected selected words (Aka et al., 2021). |
|
> You can select from gender and sexual orientation identity terms that appear in the dataset at least 10 times. |
|
> The resulting ranked words are those that co-occur with both identity terms. |
|
> The more positive the score, the more associated the word is with the first identity term. The more negative the score, the more associated the word is with the second identity term. |
|
|
|
While there was a positive skew of words relating occupations e.g _`government`_, _`jobs`_ towards she, her, and similar attributions of the masculine and feminine words to they and them, more harmful words attributions such as _`escort`_ and even _`colour`_ presented with greater attributions to she, her and him, his, respectively. |
|
|
|
We welcome users to explore the [Data Measurements nPMI Visualitons for OBELICS](https://huggingface.co/spaces/HuggingFaceM4/IDEFICS_Data_Measurement_Tool) further and to see the [idefics-9b model card](https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceM4/idefics-9b) for further Bias considerations. |
|
|
|
## Opted-out content |
|
|
|
To respect the preferences of content creators, we removed from OBELICS all images for which creators explicitly opted out of AI model training. We used the [Spawning API](https://api.spawning.ai/spawning-api) to verify that the images in the dataset respect the original copyright owners’ choices. |
|
|
|
However, due to an error on our side, we did not remove entire documents (i.e., URLs) that opted out of AI model training. As of July 12, 2023, it represents 4.25% of the totality of OBELICS. The config `opt_out_docs_removed_2023_07_12` applies the correct filtering at the web document level as of July 2023: `ds = load_dataset("HuggingFaceM4/OBELICS", "opt_out_docs_removed_2023_07_12")`. |
|
|
|
We recommend users of OBELICS to regularly check every document against the API. |
|
|
|
## Content warnings |
|
|
|
Despite our efforts in filtering, OBELICS contains a small proportion of documents that are not suitable for all audiences. For instance, while navigating the interactive map, you might find the cluster named "Sex" which predominantly contains descriptions of pornographic movies along with pornographic images. Other clusters would contain advertising for sex workers or reports of violent shootings. In our experience, these documents represent a small proportion of all the documents. |
