SYNERGY dataset

DOI PyPI

SYNERGY is a free and open dataset on study selection in systematic reviews, comprising 169,288 academic works from 26 systematic reviews. Only 2,834 (1.67%) of the academic works in the binary classified dataset are included in the systematic reviews. This makes the SYNERGY dataset a unique dataset for the development of information retrieval algorithms, especially for sparse labels. Due to the many variables available per record (i.e. titles, abstracts, authors, references, topics), this dataset is useful for researchers in NLP, machine learning, network analysis, and more. In total, the dataset contains 82,668,134 trainable data points.

Get the data

The easiest way to get the SYNERGY dataset is via the synergy-dataset Python package. Install the package with:

pip install synergy-dataset

To download and build the SYNERGY dataset, run the following command in the command line:

python -m synergy_dataset get

To get an overview of the datasets and their properties, use synergy_dataset list and synergy_dataset show <DATASET_NAME>.

Contributing

We are welcoming contributions of all kinds. Some examples are:

  • Do you have an openly published systematic review dataset? Read about our ambition to develop SYNERGY+ (SYNERGY Plus), a much larger dataset with lots of new features.
  • Write an example or tutorial on how to use SYNERGY and all of its hidden capabilities.
  • Write integration to load SYNERGY into existing software like Spacy, Gensim, Tensorflow, Docker, Hugging Face.
