We created a dataset by web scraping different online newspapers like ‘The Daily Star’, ‘ProthomAlo’, and ‘BBC News Bangla’ using the Beautiful Soup library of Python. The dataset's features are ‘title’, ‘text’ & ‘summary’. | |
The dataset was preprocessed using the Python library ‘pandas’ and all duplicates and null values were eliminated and the total number of rows remaining is 9311. Since there is a lack of datasets in the Bengali language, this dataset will be useful for tasks like text summarization and other NLP tasks tailored to the Bengali language. |
