### Dataset Summary |
|
|
|
The original Winograd Schema Challenge (WSC) consisted of 136 schemas resulting in 273 problems. This was later expanded to 150 schemas resulting in 285 problems. |
|
|
|
A Winograd schema is a pair of sentences that differ in only one or two words and that contain an ambiguity that is |
|
resolved in opposite ways in the two sentences and requires the use of world knowledge and reasoning for its |
|
resolution. The schema takes its name from a well-known example by Terry Winograd: |
|
|
|
> The city councilmen refused the demonstrators a permit because they [feared/advocated] violence. |
|
|
|
If the word is "feared", then "they" presumably refers to the city council; if it is "advocated" then "they" |
|
presumably refers to the demonstrators. |
|

## Dataset Structure |
|
|
|
### Data Instances |
|
|
|
Each instance contains a text passage with a designated pronoun and two possible answers indicating which entity in |
|
the passage the pronoun represents. An example instance looks like the following: |
|
|
|
```python |
|
{ |
|
'label': 0, |
|
'options': ['The city councilmen', 'The demonstrators'], |
|
'pronoun': 'they', |
|
'pronoun_loc': 63, |
|
'quote': 'they feared violence', |
|
'quote_loc': 63, |
|
'source': '(Winograd 1972)', |
|
'text': 'The city councilmen refused the demonstrators a permit because they feared violence.' |
|
} |
|
``` |
|
|
|
### Data Fields |
|
|
|
- `text` (str): The text sequence |
|
- `options` (list[str]): The two entity options that the pronoun may be referring to |
|
- `label` (int): The index of the correct option in the `options` field |
|
- `pronoun` (str): The pronoun in the sequence to be resolved |
|
- `pronoun_loc` (int): The starting position of the pronoun in the sequence |
|
- `quote` (str): The substr with the key action or context surrounding the pronoun |
|
- `quote_loc` (int): The starting position of the quote in the sequence |
|
- `source` (str): A description of the source who contributed the example |
