# AlgoNotes-Explain

Synthetic explanation dataset built on top of **AlgoNotes-Raw**, with natural-language explanations generated by `Qwen3-Coder` (model card license: **Apache 2.0**).

## Dataset Description

AlgoNotes-Explain pairs each algorithm snippet from AlgoNotes-Raw with a generated explanation. The explanations were produced by the `Qwen3-Coder` model.

## Source & Construction

- **Raw data source**: `dongbobo/AlgoNotes-Raw` (upstream: `MathWeave/algobook-snippets`, license: `cc-by-4.0`)
- **Explanation generator**: `Qwen3-Coder` (model card license: `apache-2.0`)
- **Experimental-only checkpoints (not used to produce this release)**: Mistral, Llama

## License Reasoning

**Candidate set (raw data source + generator model only):**

| Source | Role | Licence |
|--------|------|---------|
| `MathWeave/algobook-snippets` → `AlgoNotes-Raw` | raw algorithmic snippets included verbatim | `cc-by-4.0` |
| `Qwen3-Coder` | model that generated the **shipped** explanations | `apache-2.0` |

The Mistral and Llama checkpoints were used only in internal experiments and produced **no content** included in this release; they are excluded from the candidate set.

**Permissiveness ranking:** `apache-2.0` is the more permissive of the two candidates (explicit patent grant, no share-alike requirement, allows sub-licensing). However, `AlgoNotes-Explain` physically contains the raw `cc-by-4.0` snippets alongside each generated explanation; the combined dataset must therefore satisfy the CC BY 4.0 attribution obligation inherited from the upstream data. `cc-by-4.0` is the binding constraint and governs this artifact.

`AlgoNotes-Explain` is released under **Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0)**. The raw algorithmic snippets originate from `MathWeave/algobook-snippets` (CC BY 4.0, via `AlgoNotes-Raw`); the natural-language explanations were generated by [`Qwen3-Coder`](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3-Coder), whose model card is licensed under Apache 2.0. The Mistral and Llama checkpoints listed in the repository were used only for internal experiments and did **not** produce any content in this release; they are excluded from the licence derivation. As the dataset physically contains the CC BY 4.0 snippets alongside the generated explanations, `cc-by-4.0` is the binding constraint governing this combined artifact.
