| # Multi-CommonCanvas-QA |
|
|
| A multilingual extension of [CommonCanvas / CommonCatalog](https://huggingface.co/datasets/common-canvas/commoncatalog-cc-by-sa) for **visual question answering** in five languages: English, German, Spanish, French and Italian. |
|
|
| ## Dataset summary |
|
|
| Each row is a Creative-Commons Flickr photo from the source dataset together with **one question about the image and its answer, both written in the language of the row**. The kind of question depends on the `question_type` column. The images and their metadata come from CommonCatalog; the questions and answers are new. |
|
|
| ## How the data was built |
|
|
| The source dataset is `common-canvas/commoncatalog-cc-by-sa`. For each image, a question of a given type and its answer were generated in each target language with the **permissively licensed model** `Qwen3.5-122B-A10B-FP8`; the text is therefore generated automatically. Original fields (Flickr metadata, `user_caption`, `blip2_caption`, `description`) are kept as they are in the source dataset and are **not** translated. |
|
|
| Question types (column `question_type`) include, for example: `attribute_and_properties`, `emotion_interpretation`, `text_recognition`, `scene_and_context`, `creative_writing` and `aesthetic_judgement`. |
|
|
| ## A sample, not the full dataset |
|
|
| This repository contains a **random sample** of the full dataset, published for exposure and quick experimentation. It is not designed to be statistically representative. For more information, please contact the organisation through its [Hugging Face page](https://huggingface.co/VillanovaAI). |
|
|
| ## Languages and size |
|
|
| One configuration per language; every config has a single `train` split. |
|
|
| | Config | `lang` | Rows | Size | |
| |---|---|---|---| |
| | `en` | English | 5,000 | 11.00 GB | |
| | `de` | German | 1,875 | 3.37 GB | |
| | `es` | Spanish | 1,875 | 3.37 GB | |
| | `fr` | French | 1,875 | 3.50 GB | |
| | `it` | Italian | 1,875 | 3.37 GB | |
| | **Total** | | **12,500** | 24.61 GB | |
|
|
| ## Data fields |
|
|
| | Column | Description | |
| |---|---| |
| | `messages` | The conversation in chat format. It contains the image (`images`, with the image bytes) and the `messages` turns: a `user` turn with the image and the question, and an `assistant` turn with the answer. | |
| | `question` | The question, as plain text, in the language given by `lang`. | |
| | `answer` | The answer, as plain text, in the language given by `lang`. | |
| | `question_type` | Type of question asked about the image. | |
| | `task` | Always `Question Answering`. | |
| | Column | Description | |
| |---|---| |
| | `photoid`, `uid`, `unickname`, `title`, `usertags`, `machinetags`, `description` | Flickr metadata of the source photo (inherited from CommonCatalog, not regenerated). | |
| | `datetaken`, `dateuploaded`, `capturedevice`, `exif` | Capture and upload information of the source photo. | |
| | `longitude`, `latitude`, `accuracy`, `country`, `continent` | Geolocation of the source photo, when available. | |
| | `pageurl`, `downloadurl`, `url`, `key`, `serverid`, `farmid`, `secret`, `secretoriginal`, `ext`, `status`, `error_message`, `sha256` | Source URLs and download information of the image. | |
| | `licensename`, `licenseurl` | License of the individual image. | |
| | `width`, `height`, `original_width`, `original_height` | Image size. | |
| | `least_dim_range`, `aspect_ratio_bucket` | Resolution and aspect-ratio buckets of the image, inherited from the organisation of the source dataset. | |
| | `user_caption` | Caption written by the Flickr user (called `caption` in the source dataset); often empty. | |
| | `blip2_caption` | BLIP-2 caption provided by the source dataset. | |
| | `lang` | Language of the row; equal to the configuration name. | |
|
|
| Note: in this dataset the image is stored inside `messages` and is not repeated as a top-level `jpg` column. |
|
|
| ## Usage |
|
|
| ```python |
| from datasets import load_dataset |
| |
| ds = load_dataset("VillanovaAI/Multi-CommonCanvas-QA", "it", split="train", streaming=True) |
| row = next(iter(ds)) |
| print(row["lang"], row["question_type"]) |
| print(row["question"]) |
| print(row["answer"]) |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## License |
|
|
| The license is the one declared by the source dataset, [`common-canvas/commoncatalog-cc-by-sa`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/common-canvas/commoncatalog-cc-by-sa) (CC BY-SA 4.0). Each row also keeps the license of its own image (`licensename`, `licenseurl`) and its source page (`pageurl`). Please check those terms before reusing or redistributing the images. |
