ir_datasets: Washington PostTo use this dataset, you need a copy of Washington Post Collection, provided by NIST.
Your organization may already have a copy. If this is the case, you may only need to complete a new "Individual Argeement". Otherwise, your organization will need to file the "Organizational agreement" with NIST. It can take some time to process, but you will end up with a password-protected download link.
The source file required is WashingtonPost.v2.tar.gz.
ir_datasets expects the above file to be copied/linked under ~/.ir_datasets/wapo/WashingtonPost.v2.tar.gz.
The Washington Post collection.
Version 2 of the Washington Post collection, consisting of articles published between 2012-2017.
The collection is obtained from NIST by requesting it from NIST here.
body contains all body text in plain text format, including paragrphs and multi-media captions. body_paras_html contains only source paragraphs and contains HTML markup. body_media contains images, videos, tweets, and galeries, along with a link to the content and a textual caption.
