It focuses on gathering rich and detailed text content, especially longer articles. The collection covers a wide range of topics, including travel, news, culture, fairy tales and folklore, movie reviews, popular science, product and service complaints, fashion and self-care, trendy tech, pop culture, and literature. Each sub-corpus in OzenliDerlem, except for the News sub-corpus, is gathered from at least 50 high-quality websites. This variety of content helps the models better understand the finer details of modern Turkish culture, making these sub-corpora incredibly valuable. The breakdown of topics in the CraftedCrawl collection is shown below. The News sub-corpus, originally called "Havadis," stands out as the first large-scale Turkish news crawl ever conducted. It includes data collected from 11 major newspaper websites, such as CNN Türk, Habertürk, Hürriyet, Milliyet, NTV Haber, Posta, Sabah, Sözcü, Star, T24, and Takvim. This corpus is a part of large scale Turkish corpus [Bella Turca](https://huggingface.co/datasets/turkish-nlp-suite/BellaTurca).

Keyif düşkünlerine, maceracı gezginlere, kendini arayanlara, veya sadece farklı bir şeyler görmek isteyenlere kadar herkes kendine ait bir şeyler bulacak Bali'de. Bu yazımda Bali'de edinebileceğiniz tecrübeleri listeleyeceğim. Kim bilir, belki yazının sonunda Bali için bilet bakmaya başlarsınız, belli mi olur 🙂" } ``` ## Citation ``` @InProceedings{10.1007/978-3-031-70563-2_16, author="Altinok, Duygu", editor="N{\"o}th, Elmar and Hor{\'a}k, Ale{\v{s}} and Sojka, Petr", title="Bella Turca: A Large-Scale Dataset of Diverse Text Sources for Turkish Language Modeling", booktitle="Text, Speech, and Dialogue", year="2024", publisher="Springer Nature Switzerland", address="Cham", pages="196--213", abstract="In recent studies, it has been demonstrated that incorporating diverse training datasets enhances the overall knowledge and generalization capabilities of large-scale language models, especially in cross-domain scenarios. In line with this, we introduce Bella Turca: a comprehensive Turkish text corpus, totaling 265GB, specifically curated for training language models. Bella Turca encompasses 25 distinct subsets of 4 genre, carefully chosen to ensure diversity and high quality. While Turkish is spoken widely across three continents, it suffers from a dearth of robust data resources for language modelling. Existing transformers and language models have primarily relied on repetitive corpora such as OSCAR and/or Wiki, which lack the desired diversity. Our work aims to break free from this monotony by introducing a fresh perspective to Turkish corpora resources. To the best of our knowledge, this release marks the first instance of such a vast and diverse dataset tailored for the Turkish language. Additionally, we contribute to the community by providing the code used in the dataset's construction and cleaning, fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing.", isbn="978-3-031-70563-2" } ``` ## Acknowledgments This research was supported with Cloud TPUs from Google's TPU Research Cloud (TRC).
