AI Training Data Generation

Overview

A comprehensive skill for automatically generating high-quality training datasets from documents, text corpora, and structured content. Optimized for low-resource languages, dictionary content, and domain-specific knowledge extraction.

Key Sources: Dictionary databases, Bible EPUBs (NWT), JW brochures, parallel text corpora

Capabilities

• Multi-strategy Generation: Dictionary pairs, contextual definitions, completion tasks, classification examples
• Quality Filtering: Confidence scoring, duplicate removal, and content validation
• Format Flexibility: Support for multiple AI training formats (JSONL, HuggingFace, Ollama, OpenAI)
• Language Awareness: Multi-language support with special handling for accented characters
• Scalable Processing: Generate thousands of examples from large documents
• Balance Management: Ensure dataset diversity and prevent category imbalance
• EPUB Processing: Extract parallel verses from Bible EPUBs for translation training
• Sentence Alignment: Align parallel sentences from bilingual documents

Core Strategies

1. Dictionary Pair Extraction

Extract word-definition pairs from structured and semi-structured text.

Detection Patterns:

• Separator-based: word – definition, term: meaning
• Linguistic indicators: means, is defined as, refers to
• Structural cues: Indentation, formatting, list structures
• Context analysis: Surrounding text for validation

2. Bible EPUB Parallel Corpus Extraction

Extract aligned verse pairs from Chuukese and English NWT Bible EPUBs.

3. Brochure Sentence Extraction

Extract parallel sentences from JW brochures.

class BrochureSentenceExtractor:
    """Extract training pairs from brochure sentences."""
    
    def __init__(self, sentences_json_path: str):
        with open(sentences_json_path, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as f:

        """Extract and format brochure sentences for training."""
        pairs = []
        
        for item in self.sentences:
            if 'chuukese' in item and 'english' in item:
                pairs.append({
                    'chuukese': item['chuukese'],
                    'english': item['english'],
                    'source': 'brochure',
                    'confidence': item.get('confidence', 0.8)
                })
        
        return pairs

4. Implementation Pattern

from .ai_training_generator import AITrainingDataGenerator

# Initialize generator
generator = AITrainingDataGenerator(min_confidence=0.7)

# Generate comprehensive training data
training_data = generator.generate_comprehensive_training_data(
    parsed_document,
    target_count=10000
)

# Export in multiple formats
files = generator.export_training_data(
    training_data,
    output_dir="training_output",
    format_type="ollama"
)

Output Format Examples

JSONL Format (Standard)

{"input": "What does 'ááfengen' mean?", "output": "very good, excellent", "type": "dictionary_pair", "confidence": 0.95}

Ollama Format

{"prompt": "Translate this Chuukese word: ngang", "response": "fish", "system": "You are a Chuukese-English translator."}

HuggingFace Format

{"text": "### Instruction:\nWhat does 'chomong' mean in Chuukese?\n\n### Response:\nto help, assist"}

OpenAI Fine-tuning Format

{"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Define: kúún"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "to go, to leave"}]}

Quality Assurance

• Content validity: Does the example make linguistic sense?
• Pattern matching: Does it follow expected language patterns?
• Context appropriateness: Is the context relevant and helpful?
• Uniqueness: Avoid repetitive or duplicate content

Best Practices

1. Multiple validation passes: Automated and manual quality checks
2. Confidence thresholds: Adjust based on use case requirements
3. Human review sampling: Periodic manual validation of generated examples
4. Balance management: Ensure even distribution across categories
