## Dataset Description

This dataset is derived from the original [hub-stats](https://huggingface.co/datasets/cfahlgren1/hub-stats) dataset and has undergone several preprocessing steps specifically tailored for the Model Atlas:

- Removed unnecessary columns.
- Extracted relevant attributes from tags into dedicated columns.
- Manually annotated over 1,000 records with `base_model`, `base_model_relation`, or marked as unknown.
- Automatically extracted `base_model` information from model cards using a regex-based approach.
- Removed `base_model` loops and self-loops.
- Excluded models without weight files in the repository (i.e., files matching these extensions: `.pt`, `.pth`, `.bin`, `.safetensors`, `.ckpt`, `.pb`, `.h5`, `.npy`, `.npz`, `.onnx`, `.tflite`, `.xmodel`, `.dlc`, `.uff`, `.pbtxt`, `.msgpack`, `.pkl`, `.mar`, `.gguf`, `.ggml`, `.pdparams`, `.pdopt`, `.imatrix`, `.jit`, `.t7`, `.mdl`).
- Added "virtual" models to represent base models that have been removed but are still referenced by other models (e.g., `ruwnayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5`).

The code used for transforming this data into the directed acyclic graph (DAG) utilized in the paper and demo will be available at [https://github.com/eliahuhorwitz/Model-Atlas](https://github.com/eliahuhorwitz/Model-Atlas).
