### Dataset Summary

This is an adapted version of the [original redial dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/re_dial), for supporting different tasks in our project [RecBot](https://github.com/McAuley-Lab/RecBot).
The redial dataset provides over 10,000 conversations centered around movie recommendations. It was released in the paper ["Towards Deep Conversational Recommendations"](https://arxiv.org/abs/1812.07617) at NeurIPS 2018.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
1. Sentiment Analysis: Use the SA config for sentiment analysis. 
2. Recommendation: Use the autorec config for recommendation task.
3. Conversational recommendation: Use the rec config for conversational recommendation task.

### Data Fields
#### SA
- movieId: the movie's ID in the [MovieLens](https://grouplens.org/datasets/movielens/latest/) dataset.
- movieName: the movie's name.
- messages: a list of string. The conversation messages related to the movie. Note that one conversation can contain mutiple movies. The conversation messages are repeated for each movie as a sample.
- senders: a list of 1 or -1. It has the same length of messages. Each element indicates the message at the same index is from the initiatorWorker (with 1) or the respondentWorkerId (with -1).
- form: a list generated by: [init_q[movieId]["suggested"], init_q[movieId]["seen"], init_q[movieId]["liked"], resp_q[movieId]["suggested"], resp_q[movieId]["seen"], resp_q[movieId]["liked"]. init_q is the initiator questions in the conversation. resp_q is the respondent questions in the conversation.

#### rec
- movieIds: a list of movie ids in a conversation.
- messages: a list of string. see config SA for detail.
- senders: a list of 1 or -1. see config SA for detail.
