This repository contains an expert-annotated dataset of 1261 tweets and the corresponding annotation framework from the publication "SciTweets - A Dataset and Annotation Framework for Detecting Scientific Online Discourse" (https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.07360). The tweets are annotated with three different categories of science-relatedness:

(1) Scientific knowledge (scientifically verifiable claims): Tweets that include a claim or a question that could be scientifically verified, (2) Reference to scientific knowledge: Tweets that include at least one reference to scientific knowledge (references can either be direct, e.g., DOI, title of a paper or indirect, e.g., a link to an article that includes a direct reference), and (3) Related to scientific research in general: Tweets that mention a scientific research context (e.g., mention a scientist, scientific research efforts, research findings).

Further, the annotations include the annotators' confidence scores as well as labels for compound claims and ironic tweets.

ClaimsKG is a knowledge graph of metadata information for fact-checked claims scraped from popular fact-checking sites. In addition to providing a single dataset of claims and associated metadata, truth ratings are harmonized and additional information is provided for each claim, e.g., about mentioned entities. Please see (https://data.gesis.org/claimskg/) for further details about the data model, query examples and statistics.

The dataset facilitates structured queries about claims, their truth values, involved entities, authors, dates, and other kinds of metadata. ClaimsKG is generated through a (semi-)automated pipeline, which harvests claim-related data from popular fact-checking web sites, annotates them with related entities from DBpedia/Wikipedia, and lifts all data to RDF using established vocabularies (such as schema.org).

The latest release of ClaimsKG covers 74066 claims and 72127 Claim Reviews. This is the fourth release of the dataset where data was scraped till Jan 31, 2023 containing claims published between 1996 and 2023 from 13 fact-checking websites. The websites are Fullfact, Politifact, TruthOrFiction, Checkyourfact, Vishvanews, AFP (French), AFP, Polygraph, EU factcheck, Factograph, Fatabyyano, Snopes and Africacheck. The claim-review (fact-checking) period for claims ranges between the year 1996 to 2023. Similar to the previous release, the Entity fishing python client (https://github.com/hirmeos/entity-fishing-client-python) has been used for entity linking and disambiguation in this release. Improvements have been made in the web scraping and data preprocessing pipeline to extract more entities from both claims and claims reviews. Currently, ClaimsKG contains 3408386 entities detected and referenced with DBpedia.

This latest release of ClaimsKG supersedes the previous versions as it contained all the claims from the previous versions together in addition to the additional new claims as well as improved entity annotation resulting in a higher number of entities.
