How To Read This Dataset
- Start from the repository files and the dataset viewer when available.
- Treat the README context as a fast orientation layer; confirm variable definitions and units in the data files before modeling.
- Use explicit country columns when present. When geography is only implied by the title or source metadata, document that assumption in downstream analysis.
- Preserve missing values until you have a defensible imputation rule.
Usage
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/africa-libya-violence-against-civilians-and-vital-civilian-facilities")
print(ds)
split_name = next(iter(ds))
table = ds[split_name]
print(table.features)
print(table[:3])
Convert To Pandas When Tabular
from datasets import Dataset
first_split = ds[next(iter(ds))]
if isinstance(first_split, Dataset):
df = first_split.to_pandas()
print(df.head())
Data Quality Notes
- This card was standardized from the Electric Sheep Africa Hugging Face metadata inventory.
- Exact schema, row counts, and source files should be inspected in the repository data files.
- Metadata gaps from the inventory: upstream_publisher.
- Do not infer policy meaning from labels alone; confirm definitions, units, and methods in the source material.
