Ghana Assistant Data

Author: Ghana Open AI

Supported by Ghana NLP

Ready-to-train data for Ghana Assistant: one small model (Flan-T5-small) with four skills selected by a prefix. Each row is exactly what the model sees: input → target. Code: GhanaNLP/ghana-assistant.

`task`	`input` starts with	`target`	train rows
`intent`	`intent: <user message>`	`navigation` or `knowledge`	100,000
`parse`	`parse: <navigation message>`	`task: avoid \| start: … \| end: … \| avoid: …`	261,007
`directions`	`directions: Request: … Route plan: …`	spoken, landmark-based directions	261,007
`answer`	`answer: Question: … Context: 1. [2025-10] …`	a short answer	1,420,313

The train split (2,042,327 rows) is shuffled across tasks and is identical, row for row, to what the model was trained on.

from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("ghananlpcommunity/ghana-assistant-data")
print(ds["train"][0])   # {'input': 'answer: Question: ...', 'target': '...', 'task': 'answer'}

Runtime files (used by the assistant, not by `load_dataset`)

folder	contents
`maps/`	`accra.map.gz`, `kumasi.map.gz`: road graphs with landmarks (OSM + Foursquare), for routing
`knowledge/`	noun-phrase index (`postings_*.npy`, memory-mapped) and `store.sqlite` (6.27M dated sentences from Ghanaian news and KNUST research)

The ghana-assistant package downloads only these two folders.

Splits

split	rows	what is held out
`train`	2,042,327	—
`test_area`	50,148	navigation in neighbourhoods never seen in training (directions + parse + intent)
`test_pair`	41,067	navigation between start/end pairs not seen in training (directions + parse + intent)
`test_qa_b1`, `test_qa_b2`	4,000 each	GhanaQA questions not seen in training (answer + intent); b2 questions have a known source article

How it was built

Navigation: routes on an OpenStreetMap road graph of Accra and Kumasi with landmarks (OSM + filtered Foursquare OS Places). The route plan gives roads, counted turns, side roads skipped and landmarks seen at each turn; the directions were written by Gemini from that plan and fact-checked against it (source dataset: ghanaopenai/ghana-landmark-navigation). parse targets list only names that actually appear in the message.
Knowledge (GhanaQA): English questions and short answers from the GhanaQA project. Context sentences come from Ghanaian news (Citi News, MyJoyOnline, GhanaWeb) and KNUST research, retrieved by noun phrases with spaCy: rarity-weighted matching, only sentences scoring at least half of the best match, a gentle preference for recent articles, up to 600 tokens and at most 3 sentences per article. Each line is dated [YYYY-MM] or marked [research]. Cleaning removed "(N chars)" notes and ** markers and dropped broken parses.
Intent: navigation messages versus GhanaQA questions.

Limitations

Navigation covers Accra and Kumasi only, and only what OpenStreetMap contains.
GhanaQA answers were machine-generated, and retrieval finds the answer's source article for only about 15% of questions, so many answers are not fully supported by their context. Treat knowledge answers as weakly grounded.
By design there are no GPS coordinates or distances in the directions.

Licence

Mixed. Navigation rows are derived from OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL). GhanaQA rows follow the GhanaQA licence (CC-BY-NC-4.0), and context sentences quote Ghanaian news and KNUST research text. Built by Ghana Open AI, supported by Ghana NLP.
