Dataset Description

This dataset is a binary text-classification dataset for detecting whether a user is requesting to speak with a specific named person.

Supported Tasks

• Binary text classification
• Intent detection
• Chatbot routing / access-control prototypes

Languages

• English

Data Fields

• text: user input text
• labels:
  • 0 = not a request to speak to a specific named person
  • 1 = polite request to speak to a specific named person

Data Instances

Example positive instance:

{"text": "May I speak with Richard?", "labels": 1}
{"text": "Hello, Sarah mentioned I should talk to Michael for details. Could you put me through?", "labels": 1}

Example negative instance:

{"text": "Who is Richard?", "labels": 0}
{"text": "Can I talk to her?", "labels": 0}

Dataset Creation

This dataset was created for a small intent-classification project involving chatbot authentication/routing behavior.

Positive examples are short user utterances that politely request to speak with a named person.

Negative examples include:

• general questions about a person
• unrelated chat messages
• statements
• questions not asking to speak to someone
• utterances without a specific named target

Limitations

• Short-text focused
• English only
• Small scope
• Binary framing may not capture ambiguous requests
