Hi,

I need help understanding how to convert csv file into dataset.Dataset object. I’ve followed huggingface’s tutorials and course and I see in all of their examples they are loading dataset from the hub which is in the right format for data manipulation and model input.

When I upload my dataset as a csv file, I can’t implement the map function and can’t get the data in the right format in order to insert it into the model.

I have seen similar topics but no solution for this particular problem. Here is a screenshot from the part of the code I have trouble executing.

Thanks!

Hi! 👋

Did you try [this](https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/loading#csv) for loading a CSV using `load_dataset`? This should give you a `Dataset` object which you can map over.
