Description

Hi,

I am recommending that someone add MLDoc, a multilingual news topic classification dataset.

- Here's a link to the Github: https://github.com/facebookresearch/MLDoc
- and the paper: http://www.lrec-conf.org/proceedings/lrec2018/pdf/658.pdf

Looks like the dataset contains news stories in multiple languages that can be classified into four hierarchical groups: CCAT (Corporate/Industrial), ECAT (Economics), GCAT (Government/Social) and MCAT (Markets). There are 13 languages: Dutch, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Portuguese, Spanish, Latin American Spanish, Italian, Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish
