This small dataset contains 3 speech corpora collected using the Alex Translate telephone service (https://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/alex#alex-translate).
The "part1" and "part2" corpora contain English speech with transcriptions and Czech translations. These recordings were collected from users of the service. Part 1 contains earlier recordings, filtered to include only clean speech; Part 2 contains later recordings with no filtering applied.
The "cstest" corpus contains recordings of artificially created sentences, each containing one or more Czech names of places in the Czech Republic. These were recorded by a multinational group of students studying in Prague.
A dataset intended for fully trainable natural language generation (NLG) systems in task-oriented spoken dialogue systems (SDS), covering the English public transport information domain. It includes preceding context (user utterance) along with each data instance (pair of source meaning representation and target natural language paraphrase to be generated).
Taking the form of the previous user utterance into account for generating the system response allows NLG systems trained on this dataset to entrain (adapt) to the preceding utterance, i.e., reuse wording and syntactic structure. This should presumably improve the perceived naturalness of the output, and may even lead to a higher task success rate.
Crowdsourcing has been used to obtain natural context user utterances as well as natural system responses to be generated.
A large web corpus (over 10 billion tokens) licensed under CreativeCommons license family in 50+ languages that has been extracted from CommonCrawl, the largest publicly available general Web crawl to date with about 2 billion crawled URLs.
We present DaMuEL, a large Multilingual Dataset for Entity Linking containing data in 53 languages. DaMuEL consists of two components: a knowledge base that contains language-agnostic information about entities, including their claims from Wikidata and named entity types (PER, ORG, LOC, EVENT, BRAND, WORK_OF_ART, MANUFACTURED); and Wikipedia texts with entity mentions linked to the knowledge base, along with language-specific text from Wikidata such as labels, aliases, and descriptions, stored separately for each language. The Wikidata QID is used as a persistent, language-agnostic identifier, enabling the combination of the knowledge base with language-specific texts and information for each entity. Wikipedia documents deliberately annotate only a single mention for every entity present; we further automatically detect all mentions of named entities linked from each document. The dataset contains 27.9M named entities in the knowledge base and 12.3G tokens from Wikipedia texts. The dataset is published under the CC BY-SA licence.

Changes in version 1.1:
1. Universal Dependencies tagset instead of the older and smaller Google Universal POS tagset.
2. SVM classifier trained on Universal Dependencies 1.2 instead of HamleDT 2.0.
3. Balto-Slavic languages, Germanic languages and Romance languages were tagged by classifier trained only on the respective group of languages. Other languages were tagged by a classifier trained on all available languages. The "c7" combination from version 1.0 is no longer used.
Sentence-parallel corpus made from English and Czech Wikipedias based on translated articles from English into Czech.
The work done is described in the paper: ŠTROMAJEROVÁ, Adéla, Vít BAISA a Marek BLAHUŠ. Between Comparable and Parallel: English-Czech Corpus from Wikipedia. In RASLAN 2016 Recent Advances in Slavonic Natural Language Processing. Brno: Tribun EU, 2016. s. 3-8, 6 s. ISBN 978-80-263-1095-2.
We have created test set for syntactic questions presented in the paper [1] which is more general than Mikolov's [2]. Since we were interested in morphosyntactic relations, we extended only the questions of the syntactic type with exception of nationality adjectives which is already covered completely in Mikolov's test set.
We constructed the pairs more or less manually, taking inspiration in the Czech side of the CzEng corpus [3], where explicit morphological annotation allows to identify various pairs of Czech words (different grades of adjectives, words and their negations, etc.). The word-aligned English words often shared the same properties. Another sources of pairs were acquired from various webpages usually written for learners of English. For example for verb tense, we relied on a freely available list of English verbs and their morphological variations.
We have included 100-1000 different pairs for each question set. The questions were constructed from the pairs similarly as by Mikolov: generating all possible pairs of pairs. This leads to millions of questions, so we randomly selected 1000 instances per question set, to keep the test set in the same order of magnitude. Additionally, we decided to extend set of questions on opposites to cover not only opposites of adjectives but also of nouns and verbs.
This package contains the eye-tracker recordings of 8 subjects evaluating English-to-Czech machine translation quality using the WMT-style ranking of sentences.
We provide the set of sentences evaluated, the exact screens presented to the annotators (including bounding box information for every area of interest and even for individual letters in the text) and finally the raw EyeLink II files with gaze trajectories.
The description of the experiment can be found in the paper:
