Hyperbard (Dataset)

First release of Hyperbard.

Hyperbard is a dataset of diverse relational data representations derived from Shakespeare's plays. Our representations range from simple graphs capturing character co-occurrence in single scenes to hypergraphs encoding complex communication settings and character contributions as hyperedges with edge-specific node weights. By making multiple intuitive representations readily available for experimentation, we facilitate rigorous representation robustness checks in graph learning, graph mining, and network analysis, highlighting the advantages and drawbacks of specific representations. 

The code used to create Hyperbard is maintained on GitHub.
