Datasets are crucial for training and evaluating machine learning models, but they can also lead to undesirable behaviors like biased predictions. To tackle this issue, the machine learning community suggests adopting consistent guidelines for dataset descriptions. However, these guidelines rely on natural language descriptions, which hinder automated computation and analysis. To overcome this, we present DescribeML, a language engineering tool that provides precise, structured descriptions of machine learning datasets, including their composition, provenance, and social concerns.
Datasets are essential for training and evaluating machine learning models. However, they are also the root cause of many undesirable model behaviors, such as biased predictions. To address this issue, the machine learning community is proposing as a best practice the adoption of common guidelines for describing datasets. However, these guidelines are based on natural language descriptions of the dataset, hampering the automatic computation and analysis of such descriptions. To overcome this situation, we present DescribeML, a language engineering tool to precisely describe machine learning datasets in terms of their composition, provenance, and social concerns in a structured format. The tool is implemented as a Visual Studio Code extension.(c) 2023 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier B.V.
