# ClinText-SP Dataset Card |
|
|
|
## Dataset Description |
|
**ClinText-SP** is the largest publicly available Spanish clinical corpus designed to support research in clinical natural language processing. It aggregates a rich collection of clinical texts from diverse open sources, including medical journals, annotated corpora from shared tasks, and supplementary sources like Wikipedia and medical textbooks. |
|
|
|
The dataset contains: |
|
- **35,996 samples** with an average of ~700 tokens per sample |
|
- **Approximately 25.62M tokens** in total |
|
|
|
ClinText-SP offers a balanced mix of long, well-structured clinical case reports and shorter, schematic texts, making it ideal for a variety of clinical NLP tasks. |
|
|
|
## Data Sources |
|
The corpus is built from three primary source types: |
|
- **Medical Journals:** Clinical case reports from specialized Spanish-language journals. |
|
- **Annotated Corpora:** Datasets from shared tasks. |
|
- **Other Sources:** Additional clinical knowledge extracted from Wikipedia and select medical textbooks to complement the dataset. |
|
|
|
## Data Preprocessing |
|
- **Cleaning & Extraction:** Texts were parsed and cleaned from PDFs, HTMLs, and other formats. Extraneous formatting, HTML artifacts, and non-essential metadata (e.g., author names) were removed. |
|
- **Customized Strategies:** Specific regex-based heuristics and LLM-assisted methods (using Qwen2.5) were employed to accurately extract clinical case information. |
|
- **Deduplication & Language Filtering:** Fuzzy deduplication (using MinHash) ensured unique entries, and non-Spanish texts were removed using Python Langdetect. |
|
|
|
## Intended Use |
|
ClinText-SP is ideal for: |
|
- **Training and Benchmarking:** Facilitating the development of Spanish clinical NLP models, including encoder-based models such as [RigoBERTa Clinical](https://huggingface.co/IIC/RigoBERTa-Clinical). |
|
- **Domain-Adaptive Pretraining:** Serving as a robust resource for adapting language models to the clinical domain. |
|
- **Research and Application:** Advancing clinical language understanding and supporting applications in healthcare AI. |
|
|
|
## Limitations and Biases |
|
- **Biases:** The dataset may reflect biases inherent to the selected sources and may not cover every clinical specialty. |
|
- **Coverage:** While comprehensive, the dataset might not fully encapsulate the entirety of clinical nuances across all medical fields. |
|
- **Data Quality:** Variations in data quality exist due to the diversity of sources and extraction methods. |
