| # PGN Dataset |
|
|
| **Last Updated**: 2025-01-26 |
|
|
| ## Description |
|
|
| This is a dataset of chess games in Portable Game Notation (PGN) format. The dataset was created by cleaning and formatting the [milesh1/35-million-chess-games](https://www.kaggle.com/milesh1/35-million-chess-games) dataset from Kaggle. |
|
|
| This version of the pgn-dataset does not include the `[g_start]` and `[g_end]` special tokens that [PGNTokenizer]((https://huggingface.co/InterwebAlchemy/PGNTokenizer) uses to denote the start and end of a game. The [pgn-dataset-including-special-tokens](https://huggingface.co/datasets/InterwebAlchemy/pgn-dataset-including-special-tokens) dataset includes these tokens. |
|
|
| ## Notes |
|
|
| This was the training dataset for [`PGNTokenizer`](https://huggingface.co/InterwebAlchemy/PGNTokenizer). For more information about using `PGNTokenizer` visit the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/DVDAGames/pgn-tokenizer). |
