20 Newsgroups Dataset
Introduction
The 20 Newsgroups dataset comprises roughly 20,000 documents from newsgroups, with an almost even distribution across 20 distinct newsgroups. Initially gathered by Ken Lang, this dataset has gained prominence in the machine learning community, particularly for text-related applications like classification and clustering.
Dataset Structure
The dataset's organization is based on 20 different newsgroups, each representing a unique topic. While some of these newsgroups share similarities or are closely related, others are quite distinct from one another.
List of Newsgroups:
- Computer Graphics
- Windows OS Miscellaneous
- IBM PC Hardware
- Mac Hardware
- Windows X
- Automobiles
- Motorcycles
- Baseball
- Hockey
- Cryptography
- Electronics
- Medicine
- Space
- Miscellaneous Sales
- Miscellaneous Politics
- Politics & Guns
- Middle East Politics
- Miscellaneous Religion
- Atheism
- Christianity

It's my understanding that the next release of UIM/X, due out
last February :-) has full support for C++.
I use XDesigner which does not have the interpreter or UI meta languages
of these other tools but does fully support C++ code generation,
reusable templates via C++ classes which are generated, a variety of
other handy features for using C++ and layout functions in different
ways, and generates Motif 1.2 code (including drag 'n drop,
internationalization, etc.). Fits in quite nicely with Doug Young's
paradigm for C++/Motif.
Available in the US from VI Corp, in Europe from Imperial Software,
London (see FAQ for details).

I'd like any accumulated information on this as well please.
Thanks.

Data Availability
The dataset is bundled in .tar.gz
format. Within each bundle, individual subdirectories represent a newsgroup. Every file within these subdirectories corresponds to a document posted in that specific newsgroup.
There are three primary versions of the dataset:
- The original version, which remains unaltered.
- A version sorted by date, which segregates the data into training (60%) and test (40%) sets. This version has removed duplicates and some headers for clarity.
- A version that only retains the "From" and "Subject" headers, with duplicates removed.
For those seeking a more consistent benchmark, the date-sorted version is recommended. It offers a realistic split based on time and has removed any newsgroup-specific identifiers.
Matlab/Octave Version
For users of Matlab or Octave, a processed variant of the date-sorted dataset is available. This version is structured as a sparse matrix and includes files like train.data
, train.label
, test.data
, and more. Additionally, a vocabulary file is provided to help users understand the indexed data.
Additional Information
For more details and the original dataset, you can refer to the official website.
