Suele distribuirse como un único archivo input.txt con el texto completo, y muchas implementaciones lo exponen en tres “splits” simbólicos (train/validation/test) con una única entrada por split que contiene todo el texto.​\n\nContenido y formato​\nEl archivo incluye diálogos y acotaciones de múltiples obras, con nombres de personajes seguidos de sus líneas y saltos de línea que preservan estructura teatral; un ejemplo inicial es “First Citizen:\\nBefore we proceed any further, hear me …”. El dataset se entrega como una columna “text” de tipo string, sin etiquetas adicionales, pensado para modelado autoregresivo de siguiente carácter o siguiente token tras tokenización.​\n\nTareas recomendadas​\n\nModelado a nivel carácter: dividir el texto en secuencias y entrenar a predecir el siguiente carácter, lo que simplifica vocabulario y facilita prototipos educativos.​\n\nModelado a nivel subpalabra/palabra: aplicar un tokenizador BPE o similar para entrenar un GPT pequeño con bloques de contexto fijos y evaluación por perplexity en validación.​\n\nTamaño y splits​\nEl tamaño de descarga y del dataset es aproximadamente 1.06–1.11 MB, con un total ocupado en disco cercano a 2.23 MB en algunos empaquetados. En catálogos comunes se ofrece con tres splits (train/validation/test), cada uno con una única “ejemplo” que contiene todo el texto, práctica que facilita pipelines simples de corte en ventanas.​\n\nVentajas para la hackathon​\n\nCiclos rápidos: su tamaño pequeño permite iterar hiperparámetros, arquitecturas y regularización con entrenos de minutos, ideal para comparar runs en un leaderboard.​\n\nReproducibilidad: al ser un estándar de facto en demos de nanoGPT/char-rnn, existen scripts y repositorios de referencia que facilitan baselines y comparaciones justas.​\n\nLimitaciones y buenas prácticas​\n\nEscala y diversidad: el corpus es pequeño y estilísticamente homogéneo (inglés isabelino), por lo que conviene evitar conclusiones generales sobre escalado o capacidades fuera del dominio.​\n\nEvaluación: usar un split de validación consistente y registrar la perplexity de validación y el gap val−train para medir generalización; documentar cómo se cuentan tokens si se emplea tokenización subpalabra.​\n\n", "isPublished": false, "hasIsPublished": false, "postTitle": "", "hasPostTitle": false, "mimeType": "", "hasMimeType": false }, { "name": "Description", "content": "Cada alumno implementa y entrena un nanoGPT minimalista con un pipeline claro (datos, tokens, entrenamiento, evaluación) y registra sus runs en una hoja/tablero con métricas estandarizadas.
