"""Caching loader for the 20 newsgroups text classification dataset The description of the dataset is available on the official website at: http://people.csail.mit.edu/jrennie/20Newsgroups/ Quoting the introduction: The 20 Newsgroups data set is a collection of approximately 20,000 newsgroup documents, partitioned (nearly) evenly across 20 different newsgroups. To the best of my knowledge, it was originally collected by Ken Lang, probably for his Newsweeder: Learning to filter netnews paper, though he does not explicitly mention this collection. The 20 newsgroups collection has become a popular data set for experiments in text applications of machine learning techniques, such as text classification and text clustering. This dataset loader will download the recommended "by date" variant of the dataset and which features a point in time split between the train and test sets. The compressed dataset size is around 14 Mb compressed. Once uncompressed the train set is 52 MB and the test set is 34 MB.
