# ROCStories (prompt / continuation)

A reformatted version of the [ROCStories](https://cs.rochester.edu/nlp/rocstories/)
corpus, suitable for open-ended story-generation exercises.

Each example is a 5-sentence ROCStory, split into:

| field | description |
|---------------|------------------------------------------------------|
| `prompt` | the first sentence of the story |
| `continuation`| the remaining four sentences |
| `text` | the full (unmodified) 5-sentence story |

## Splits

| split | rows |
|--------------|---------|
| `train` | 70,676 |
| `validation` | 7,852 |
| `test` | 19,633 |

The `train` / `validation` split is a 90/10 shuffle (seed = 42) of the train
split from [mintujupally/ROCStories](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mintujupally/ROCStories);
`test` is mintujupally's test split unchanged.

## Provenance

This dataset was reconstructed to replace
`Ximing/ROCStories`, which is no longer available on the Hub, as the data
source for the CSED503 / CSE447 Natural Language Generation assignment.

The underlying stories come from the ROC Stories 2016 and 2017 releases
(Mostafazadeh et al.). Please cite the original corpus when using this data:

# ROCStories（提示语/续写文本）

本数据集为[ROCStories](https://cs.rochester.edu/nlp/rocstories/)语料库的重格式化版本，适用于开放式故事生成任务练习。

每个样本均为包含5个句子的ROCStories故事，拆分为以下字段：

| 字段名 | 描述说明 |
|---------------|------------------------------------------------------|
| `提示语（prompt）` | 故事的第一句话 |
| `续写文本（continuation）`| 故事剩余的四个句子 |
| `完整文本（text）` | 完整未修改的5句故事原文 |

## 数据集划分

| 拆分集 | 样本量 |
|--------------|---------|
| `训练集（train）` | 70,676 |
| `验证集（validation）` | 7,852 |
| `测试集（test）` | 19,633 |

本数据集的训练集与验证集由[mintujupally/ROCStories](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mintujupally/ROCStories)的原训练集以90:10的比例随机洗牌划分（随机种子设为42）得到；测试集则直接沿用mintujupally/ROCStories的原始测试集，未做任何修改。

## 数据集溯源

本数据集为重构版本，用于替代已从Hugging Face Hub下架的`Ximing/ROCStories`，作为CSED503与CSE447自然语言生成课程作业的数据源。

本数据集的核心故事源自ROC Stories 2016与2017版本（Mostafazadeh等人）。使用该数据集时，请引用原始语料库的相关文献：
