This dataset contains a selection of speeches from ParlaMint corpora (version 4.1) as the training set for the shared task on "Ideology and Power Identification in Parliamentary Debates" in CLEF 2025. All files are tab-separated text files with the following fields: "id" is a unique (arbitrary) ID for each text. "speaker" is a unique (arbitrary) ID for each speaker. There may be multiple speeches from the same speaker. "sex" is the (binary/biological) sex of the speaker. This information is collected from varying sources (typically data published by the respective parliament), and in some cases it may be unspecified or unknown. "text" is the transcribed text of the parliamentary speech. Real examples may include line breaks, and other special sequences escaped or quoted. "text_en" is an automatic English translation of the corresponding text. This field may be empty (obviously) for speeches in English, but the translations may be missing for a small number of non-English speeches as well. "orientation" is the binary/numeric label ( 0 is left and 1 is right). Orientation labels are based on Wikipedia. "power" is the binary label for power role (0 is opposition, 1 is coalition), this information is based on the information provided by the ParlaMint contributors. This value is not always present, either due to parliamentary systems with no defined coalition/opposition, or unknown orientation information for some speakers (e.g., PMs with no party affilitiation). Missing values are indicated as 'NA'. "populism" is a populism index based on multiple expert surveys (to increase the coverage). We focus on a particular dimension of populism in this task: the position of the party of the speaker in populist - pluralist spectrum. This is measured on a 4-point ordinal scale (1: Strongly Pluralist, 2: Moderately Pluralist 3: Moderately Populist, 4: Strongly Populist). Not all values are present in all parliaments. Many parties/speakers are not covered by the data, and some values are missing due to failure to match the survey identifies/names and ParlaMint identifiers. Missing values are indicated as 'NA'. Small samples of the data files are provided in the shared task GitHub repository at https://github.com/coltekin/ideology-power-st-baseline. File names include a code for the parliament. We provide data from the following national and regional parliaments. Austria (at) Bosnia and Herzegovina (ba) Belgium (be) Bulgaria (bg) Czechia (cz) Denmark (dk) Estonia (ee) Spain (es) Catalonia (es-ct) Galicia (es-ga) Basque Country (es-pv) Finland (fi) France (fr) Great Britain (gb) Greece (gr) Croatia (hr) Hungary (hu) Iceland (is) Italy (it) Latvia (lv) The Netherlands (nl) Norway (no) Poland (pl) Portugal (pt) Serbia (rs) Sweden (se) Slovenia (si) Turkey (tr) Ukraine (ua) The number of training instances and the class imbalance differs for each training set. We do not provide a fixed validation split. Please see the shared task website and the GitHub repository for further description of the data set and the sampling process.
