The dataset is distributed as csv files.

A search engine over DebateSum (as well as some additional evidence not included in DebateSum) is available as debate.cards . It's very good quality and allows for the evidence to be viewed in the format that debaters use.

Data

DebateSum consists of 187328 debate documents, arguements (also can be thought of as abstractive summaries, or queries), word-level extractive summaries, citations, and associated metadata organized by topic-year. This data is ready for analysis by NLP systems.

Download

All data is accesable in a parsed format organized by topic year here

Addtionally, the trained word-vectors for debate2vec are also found in that folder.

Regenerating it yourself

This is useful as the debaters who produce the evidence release their work every year. Soon enough I will update to include the 2020-2021 topic.

Step 1: Download all open evidence files from Open Evidence and unzip them into a directory. The links are as follows:

  • 2019 - Resolved: The United States federal government should substantially reduce Direct Commercial Sales and/or Foreign Military Sales of arms from the United States.
  • 2018 - Resolved: The United States federal government should substantially reduce its restrictions on legal immigration to the United States.
  • 2017 - Resolved: The United States federal government should substantially increase its funding and/or regulation of elementary and/or secondary education in the United States.
  • 2016 - Resolved: The United States federal government should substantially increase its economic and/or diplomatic engagement with the People’s Republic of China.
  • 2015 - Resolved: The United States federal government should substantially curtail its domestic surveil-lance.
  • 2014 - Resolved: The United States federal government should substantially increase its non-military exploration and/or development of the Earth’s oceans.
  • 2013 - Resolved: The United States federal government should substantially increase its economic en-gagement toward Cuba, Mexico or Venezuela.

Step 2: Convert all evidence from docx files to html5 files using pandoc with this command:

for f in *.docx; do pandoc "$f" -s -o "${f%.docx}.html5"; done

Step 3: install the dependencies for make_debate_dataset.py.

pip install -r requirements.txt

Step 4: Modify the folder and file locations as needed for your system, and run make_debate_dataset.py

python3 make_debate_dataset.py
