The Wikipedia Webpage 2M (WikiWeb2M) Dataset

We present the WikiWeb2M dataset consisting of over 2 million English Wikipedia articles. Our released dataset includes all of the text content on each page, links to the images present, and structure metadata such as which section each text and image element comes from.

This dataset is a contribution from our paper A Suite of Generative Tasks for Multi-Level Multimodal Webpage Understanding.

The dataset is stored as gzipped TFRecord files which can be downloaded here or on our GitHub repository.

WikiWeb2M Statistics

WikiWeb2M is the first multimodal open source dataset to include all page content in a unified format. Here we provide aggregate information about the WikiWeb2M dataset as well as the number of samples available with each of the fine-tuning tasks we design from it.

Number of Train Validation Test
Pages 1,803,225 100,475 100,833
Sections 10,519,294 585,651 588,552
Unique Images 3,867,277 284,975 286,390
Total Images 5,340,708 299,057 300,666

Our data processing and filtering choices for each fine-tuning task are described in the paper.

Downstream Task Samples Train Validation Test
Page Description Generation 1,435,263 80,103 80,339
Section Summarization 3,082,031 172,984 173,591
Contextual Image Captioning 2,222,814 124,703 124,188

Data and Task Examples

Here we illustrate how a single webpage can be processed into the three tasks we study: page description generation, section summarization, and contextual image captioning. The paper includes multiple Wikipedia article examples.

Usage

TFRecord Features

Here we provide the names of the fields included in the dataset, their tensorflow Sequence Example type, their data type, and a brief description.

Feature Sequence Example Type DType Description
split Context string Dataset split this page contributes to (e.g., train, val, or test)
page_url Context string Wikipeda page URL
page_title Context string Wikipedia page title, title of the article
raw_page_description Context string Wikipedia page description, which is typically the same or very similar to the content of the first (root) section of the article
clean_page_description Context string raw_page_description but with newline and tab characters removed; this provides the exact target text for our page description generation task
page_contains_images Context int64 Whether the Wikipedia page has images after our cleaning and processing steps
page_content_sections_without_table_list Context int64 Number of content sections with text or images that do not contain a list or table. This field can be used to reproduce data filtering for page description generation
is_page_description_sample Context int64 Whether a page is used as a sample for the page description fine-tuning task
section_title Sequence string Titles of each section on the Wikipedia page, in order
section_index Sequence int64 Index of each section on the Wikipedia page, in order
section_depth Sequence int64 Depth of each section on the Wikipedia page, in order

section_raw_1st_sentence Sequence string The processed out first sentence of each section, in order
section_clean_1st_sentence Sequence string The same as section_raw_1st_sentence but with newline and tab characters removed. This provides the exact target text for our section summarization task
section_rest_sentence Sequence string The processed out sentences following the first sentence of each section, in order
section_contains_table_or_list Sequence int64 Whether section content contains a table or list; this field is needed to be able to reproduce sample filtering for section summarization

is_image_caption_sample Sequence int64 Whether an image is used as a sample for the image captioning fine-tuning task
section_image_url Sequence string Image URLs, grouped by section in order
section_image_mime_type Sequence string Image mime type, grouped by section in order
section_image_width Sequence int64 Image width, grouped by section in order

section_image_clean_attr_desc Sequence string The English only processed portions of the attribution description
section_image_raw_ref_desc Sequence string Image reference description, grouped by section in order
section_image_clean_ref_desc Sequence string The same as section_image_raw_ref_desc but with newline and tab characters removed; this provides the exact target text for our image captioning task
section_image_alt_text Sequence string Image alt-text, grouped by section in order
section_image_captions Sequence string Comma separated concatenated text from alt-text, attribution, and reference descriptions; this is how captions are formatted as input text when used

Loading the Data

Here we provide a small code snippet for how to load the TFRecord files. First, load any necessary packages.

import numpy as np
import glob
import tensorflow.compat.v1 as tf
from collections import defaultdict

Next, define a data parser class.

class DataParser():
  def __init__(self,
               filepath: str = 'wikiweb2m-*',
               path: str):
    self.filepath = filepath
    self.path = path
    self.data = defaultdict(list)

  def parse_data(self):
    context_feature_description = {
        'split': tf.io.FixedLenFeature([], dtype=tf.string),
        'page_title': tf.io.FixedLenFeature([], dtype=tf.string),
        'page_url': tf.io.FixedLenFeature([], dtype=tf.string),
        'clean_page_description': tf.io.FixedLenFeature([], dtype=tf.string),
        'raw_page_description': tf.io.FixedLenFeature([], dtype=tf.string),
        'is_page_description_sample': tf.io.FixedLenFeature([], dtype=tf.int64),
        'page_contains_images': tf.io.FixedLenFeature([], dtype=tf.int64),
        'page_content_sections_without_table_list': tf.io.FixedLenFeature([] , dtype=tf.int64)
    }

    sequence_feature_description = {
        'is_section_summarization_sample': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64),
        'section_title': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_index': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64),
        'section_depth': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64),
        'section_heading_level': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64),
        'section_subsection_index': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64),
        'section_parent_index': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64),
        'section_text': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_clean_1st_sentence': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_raw_1st_sentence': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_rest_sentence': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'is_image_caption_sample': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64),
        'section_image_url': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_image_mime_type': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_image_width': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64),
        'section_image_height': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64),
        'section_image_in_wit': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64),
        'section_contains_table_or_list': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64),
        'section_image_captions': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_image_alt_text': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_image_raw_attr_desc': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_image_clean_attr_desc': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_image_raw_ref_desc': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_image_clean_ref_desc': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.string),
        'section_contains_images': tf.io.VarLenFeature(dtype=tf.int64)
    }

    def _parse_function(example_proto):
      return tf.io.parse_single_sequence_example(example_proto,
                                                 context_feature_description,
                                                 sequence_feature_description)

    suffix = '.tfrecord*'

    data_path = glob.Glob(self.path + self.filepath + suffix)
    raw_dataset = tf.data.TFRecordDataset(data_path, compression_type='GZIP')
    parsed_dataset = raw_dataset.map(_parse_function)

    for d in parsed_dataset:
      split = d[0]['split'].numpy().decode()
      self.data[split].append(d)

Then you can run the following to parse the dataset.

parser = DataParser()
parser.parse_data()
print((len(parser.data['train']), len(parser.data['val']), len(parser.data['test'])))

Models

Our full attention, transient global, and prefix global experiments were run using the LongT5 code base.
