🧠 DBpediaOntoTrain: A Quality-Segmented Ontology Dataset for LLM Pretraining

📘 Overview

DBpediaOntoTrain is a dataset of 1,766 OWL ontologies in Turtle format, extracted from DBpedia Archivo and prepared for continual pretraining of Large Language Models (LLMs) in ontology generation and completion tasks.

Each ontology is analyzed using a set of semantic quality metrics, tokenized using the LLaMA 3.2 tokenizer, and sorted by Quality Score (QS). The dataset includes cumulative token counts and percentages, allowing precise and reproducible slicing for quality-aware training.

📦 Dataset Contents

• data.json: A JSON file where each entry contains:
  • File Name: name of the ontology file (.ttl)
  • plain_text: raw ontology content in Turtle syntax
  • PD: Property Density by Class
  • NTR: Non-Taxonomic Relations per Class
  • SC: Subclasses per Class
  • PD_norm, NTR_norm, SC_norm: min-max normalized versions of the above metrics
  • QS: Quality Score (PD_norm + NTR_norm + SC_norm)
  • Token Count: number of tokens computed using the LLaMA 3.2 tokenizer
  • Token Count Accumulation: cumulative token count (sorted by descending QS)
  • Percentage of Token Count Accumulation: running percentage of total tokens across all ontologies

The dataset is sorted in descending order by Quality Score (QS), enabling easy extraction of quality-based subsets (e.g., Q1, Q1,2, etc.).

📊 Quality Metrics

Each ontology is scored with:

Metric	Description
PD	Property Density — properties per class
NTR	Non-Taxonomic Relations — domain-specific relations per class
SC	Subclass Count — hierarchical depth
QS	Sum of normalized PD, NTR, SC

These metrics reflect semantic modeling richness rather than raw size.
