| # IPIS: Inclusive Polish Instruction Set |
|
|
| <span style="color:darkred">**Note**: The IPIS dataset is currently restricted, as it is being used for [PolEval 2025](https://poleval.pl) ([Task 2](https://github.com/poleval/2025-gender-inclusive-llms)). It will be publicly available here once the shared task ends.</span> |
|
|
| IPIS is a collection of Polish instructions designed to improve the gender sensitivity and inclusiveness of large language models (LLMs). The IPIS instructions can be used to instruction-tune LLMs and are specifically designed to solve two tasks: |
|
|
| * ***gender-inclusive proofreading*** in Polish ([IPIS-proofreading](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ipipan/ipis-proofreading)) |
| * Polish↔English ***gender-sensitive translation*** (see [IPIS-translation](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ipipan/ipis-translation)) |

|
| ## IPIS data source |
|
|
| IPIS is built on a gender-inclusive text corpus manually annotated in the [PLLuM project](https://pllum.org.pl). The corpus comprises open-access texts written in standard Polish, a predominantly non-inclusive language, and representing diverse genres (see [Data sources](#dataset-sources)). All non-inclusive expressions in these texts are manually transformed into gender-sensitive versions (see [Annotation procedure](#annotation-procedure)) by the [IPI annotation team](#annotation-team). |
|
|
| ### Dataset sources |
|
|
| - **European legal acts** (Polish, English[): |
| - *Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union* |
| - *The Treaty on Europen Union (Consolidated Version)* |
| - *The Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (Consolidated Version)* |
|
|
| - **Polish legal acts** (Polish): |
| - *Konstytucja Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej* (Eng. Constitution of Poland) |
|
|
| - **Institutional documents** (Polish): |
| - *Regulamin pracy IPI PAN* (Eng. Work regulation in ICS PAS) |
| - *Status IPI PAN* (Eng. ICS PAS Statute) |
| - *Zasady podziału dotacji na działalność badawczo-rozwojową służącą rozwojowi młodych naukowców i uczestników studiów doktoranckich
w IPI PAN* (Eng. Rules for the distribution of subsidies for research and development activities aimed at the development of young scientists and PhD students at ICS PAS) |
| - *Regulamin Rady Naukowej IPI PAN* (Eng. Regulations of the Scientific Council of ICS PAS) |
| - *Regulamin Szkoły Doktorskiej TIB PAN* (Eng. Regulations of the Doctoral School TIB PAN) |
| - *Tryb Przeprowadzania przed Radę Naukową IPI PAN Czynności w Postępowaniu w sprawie Nadania Stopnia Doktora* (Eng. Procedure of Awarding the PhD Degree by the Scientific Council of ICS PAS) |
| - *Regulamin zarządzania prawami autorskimi w IPI PAN* (Eng. Copyright Managmenent Regulations at ICS PAS) |
|
|
| - **A balanced corpus of written texts** (Polish) |
| - *National Corpus of Polish* ([NLPre-based split of NKJP1M](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ipipan/nlprepl)) |
|
|
| - **A subset of ParlaMint**, i.e. a corpus of transcribed parliamentary debates (Polish) |
| - *[ParlaMint](https://www.clarin.eu/parlamint)* (year 2022) |
|
|
| ### Annotation procedure |
| Two annotators manually transform text units containing non-inclusive expressions into their gender-sensitive variants. Text passages that are already gender-neutral remain unchanged. When both annotated versions are valid (i.e. accepted by a super-annotator), they are included in the dataset to provide a more diverse range of training examples. |
|
|
| Possible gender-inclusive alternatives of the masculine generic form *posłowie* (Eng. deputies): |
| > *posłanki i posłowie* |
| > |
| > *posłowie i posłanki* |
| > |
| > *posłowie/posłanki* |
| > |
| > *posłanki/posłowie* |
| > |
| > *posł\*owie/anki* |
|
|
|
|
| Consequently, each text unit may have none (unchanged text), one, or two inclusive alternatives. |
