Vietnamese is one of the most commonly spoken languages in the world. That being said, it’s not always easy to find Vietnamese language datasets to train your models.
That’s why we’ve done the hard bit for you. Here at Twine, we’ve searched high and low to find the best Vietnamese Language datasets.
Are you ready?
Let’s dive in.
Here are our top picks for Vietnamese Language datasets:
1. CC100-Vietnamese Dataset
Created by Conneau & Wenzek in 2020, the CC100-Vietnamese dataset is one of the 100 corpora of monolingual data that was processed from the January-December 2018 Commoncrawl snapshots from the CC-Net repository. The size of this corpus is 28G in the Vietnamese language. In-Text file format.
2. Vietnamese Multiple-choice Machine Reading Comprehension Corpus (ViMMRC) Dataset
Created by Nguyen in 2020, the Vietnamese Multiple-choice Machine Reading Comprehension Corpus (ViMMRC) Dataset contains 2,783 multiple-choice questions and answers based on a set of 417 Vietnamese texts used for teaching reading comprehension for 1st to 5th graders. In the Vietnamese language, containing 417 files. [requires contacting the author for corpus]
3. Vietnamese Social Media Emotion Corpus (UIT-VSMEC) Dataset
Created by Ho in 2019, the Vietnamese Social Media Emotion Corpus (UIT-VSMEC) Dataset contains 6,927 human-annotated sentences with six emotion labels, contributing to emotion recognition research in the Vietnamese language. Contains 6,927 Excel files.
4. Vietnamese Image Captioning Dataset (UIT-ViIC) Dataset
This dataset contributes to the image captioning problem in terms of extending the image captioning dataset to different languages. The UIT-ViIC dataset is annotated manually in Vietnamese with the images from MS – COCO dataset. In addition, there is a built-in web-based annotation tool for improving annotators’ performances. UIT-ViIC in this scope consists of 19,250 captions for 3,850 images on sport-ball.
5. UIT-SPC Dataset
The UIT-SPC corpus contains 1565 papers from top NLP/CL conferences such as ACL (2014, 2015, and 2016), CoNLL 2015, EACL 2014, NAACL 2015, and EMNLP 2015. First, they are pre-processed by removing unnecessary information in these papers (e.g formula, table, etc). Then, formatted by files .xml that include the title paper, sections, and sub-sections according to the paper’s structure. Exclusively in the Vietnamese language.
Please contact via email: thindv@uit.edu.vn (Mr. Thin Dang) to sign the corpus user agreement and receive the corpus.
6. UIT-ViNames Dataset
This dataset comprises over 26,000 full names annotated with genders. This dataset is available on their website for research purposes. In addition, this paper describes six machine learning algorithms (Support Vector Machine, Multinomial Naive Bayes, Bernoulli Naive Bayes, Decision Tree, Random Forrest, and Logistic Regression) and a deep learning model (LSTM) with fastText word embedding for gender prediction on Vietnamese names.
