D3lta

If you like our project, please give us a star ⭐ on GitHub for the latest update.

This repository is the official implementation of D3lta, a library for detecting duplicate verbatim contents within a vast amount of documents.

It distinguishes 3 types of duplicate contents : copypasta (almost exact duplicates), rewording and translation. You can run it on CPU.

🚀 Quick start

One can use directly semantic_faiss function from a Dataframe that contains texts. We use by default the embeddings from the Universal Sentence Encoder but one can use other models to calculate embeddings.

import pandas as pd
from d3lta.faissd3lta import *

examples_dataset = [
        "Je m'apelle Mimie et je fais du stop",
        "Je m'apelle Giselle et toi ?",
        "Les chats sont gris",
        "Cat's are grey, aren't they ?",
        "Cats are grey",
        "Les chats ne sont pas gris",
    ]
df = pd.DataFrame(examples_dataset, columns=["text_language_detect"])
df.index = df.index.astype(str)

matches, df_clusters = semantic_faiss(
    df=df.rename(columns={"text_language_detect": "original"}),
    min_size_txt=10,
    embeddings_to_save='myembeddings',
    threshold_grapheme=0.693,
    threshold_language=0.715,
    threshold_semantic=0.85,
)

Its also possible to use Faiss to find similar embeddings.

import pandas as pd
from d3lta.faissd3lta import *

examples_dataset = [
        "Je m'apelle Mimie et je fais du stop",
        "Je m'apelle Giselle et toi ?",
        "Les chats sont gris",
        "Cat's are grey, aren't they ?",
        "Cats are grey",
        "Les chats ne sont pas gris",
    ]
    
df_test = pd.DataFrame(
        examples_dataset,
        columns=["text_to_embed"],
        index=range(len(examples_dataset)),
    )  # index for checking that it has good ids
 df_emb = compute_embeddings(df_test)
 index_t = create_index_cosine(df_emb)

 test_dataset = pd.DataFrame([{"text_to_embed": "I gatti sono grigi"}])
 df_emb_test = compute_embeddings(test_dataset)

 limits, distances, indices = index_t.range_search(
     x=df_emb_test.to_numpy().reshape(1, -1), thresh=0.7
 )

>>>df_test.loc[indices]["text_to_embed"]

2              Les chats sont gris
3    Cat's are grey, aren't they ?
4                    Cats are grey
5       Les chats ne sont pas gris
Name: text_to_embed, dtype: object

It is also possible to use your own embedding (other than Universal Sentence Encoder). For example:

import pandas as pd
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
from d3lta.faissd3lta import *

examples_dataset = [
        "Je m'apelle Mimie et je fais du stop",
        "Je m'apelle Giselle et toi ?",
        "Les chats sont gris",
        "Cat's are grey, aren't they ?",
        "Cats are grey",
        "Les chats ne sont pas gris",
    ]
df = pd.DataFrame(examples_dataset, columns=["text_language_detect"])
df.index = df.index.astype(str)

model = SentenceTransformer('paraphrase-multilingual-mpnet-base-v2')
new_emb = model.encode(df['text_language_detect'].values.tolist())
df_emb = pd.DataFrame(new_emb, index=df.index)

matches, df_clusters = semantic_faiss(
    df=df.rename(columns={"text_language_detect": "original"}),
    min_size_txt=10,
    df_embeddings_use=df_emb,
    threshold_grapheme=0.693,
    threshold_language=0.715,
    threshold_semantic=0.85,
)

📚 Synthetic dataset

The dataset is available in the release 1.0.0. It contains the following files:

synthetic_dataset_documents.csv:

This file contains all seeds (real and original texts) and their generated variations (copy-pasta, rewording or translations). There are 2985 documents in this corpus dataset generated using a large language model.

Columns details:

• doc_id (int): unique number associated to each text. All seed index are multiples of 10 and followed by their 9 transformations.
• original (str): real or transformed text
• text_type (str): dataset where the seed was extracted (books, news, tweets)
• language (str): language of the text
• prompt (str): prompt given to ChatGPT for "copypasta" and "rewording"
• seed (bool): True if the text is one of the 300 initial texts from which the generation is from

The 300 initial texts (seeds) have been taken from three Kaggle datasets :

• https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/nlp-getting-started/data
• https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/abireltaief/books-reviews
• https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/rmisra/news-category-dataset

(For more info, please refer to the paper)

synthetic_dataset_pairs_unbalanced.csv:

This file contains the 1,497,547 annotated pairs of text of the synthetic dataset : 4,500 pairs of translation, 4,030 pairs of copy-pasta, 4017 pairs of rewording and 1,485,000 pairs of non duplicated content called "nomatch".

Column details:

• source_target (str): unique id for the pair.
• source (int): index of the first text of the pair in the synthetic_dataset_documents.csv
• target (int): index of the second text of the pair in the synthetic_dataset_documents.csv
• original_source (str): text of the source index
• original_target (str): text of the target index
• language_source (str): language of original_source
• language_target (str): language of original_target
• true_label (str): transformation relation that links both text of the pair i.e. the source and target texts are {true_label} of each other. The true_label can be "copypasta", "rewording" or "translation"

Notebooks

In folder the notebooks, you can find:

• example_synthetic_dataset.ipynb: Example of applying threedelta methodology to the synthetic dataset, with a comparison to the true labels.
