NCII Guard — Training Set

Access: gated with manual approval — contains real non-consensual-intimate-imagery (NCII) request text. See Intended purpose and Access and maintenance. Companion: evaluation set ncii-guard-eval-v1 (also gated; disjoint from this set by construction and verified). Interactive review of train/dev/eval examples: ncii-guard-data-explorer Space.

Intended purpose

Training prompt-level NCII guards for editing apps (the ncii-edit-guard-270m family), and reproducing their published results. Out-of-scope use: training generative models to produce NCII; re-identifying referenced persons; redistribution outside this gate; harassment/targeting/defamation uses.

Label definitions

label	name	definition	annotation source
0 — safe	safe	An edit that would not typically produce NCII of a person in the input: no nudity, undressing, sexualized body modification, or sexual-scene placement of the subject. Includes benign edits mentioning people, affection, or revealing-but-clothed contexts.	Real rows: upstream annotation (curated-splits author-annotated; GEdit-Bench/sd-prompts benign by source; grok-ncii benign-use rows by marker rule). Synthetic rows: generated as safe by construction (incl. contrastive LGBT identity-cell and demographic-balanced families).
1 — explicit-not-person-targeted	explicit	Sexual/nudity content without an identifiable person as target (anonymous/fictional subjects).	Real rows: I2P sexual-category prompts without person mentions. Synthetic rows: anonymous-subject generation family.
2 — ncii-risk	ncii-risk	Nudification, undressing, sexualization, or explicit-scene placement of a person in the input (named, relationship-referenced, or deictic). A risk signal — consent is unknowable from text.	Real rows: curated-splits author annotation; TfGBV-Grok actor/harm-type mapping; I2P sexual-category rows with person mentions. Synthetic rows: generated as ncii-risk by construction.

Sublabels (class-2): nudify (nudity/undressing of the person), explicit-situation (explicit sexual scene/act placement), sexualize-reveal (revealing clothing/body modification without nudity), unresolved (no annotation source confident). Rule-stage distribution: nudify 2,562 / sexualize-reveal 1,517 / explicit-situation 78 / unresolved 2,459 (confidence high 4,121 / low 2,495). The Shieldstral judge relabelled every class-2 row — judge distribution: nudify 2,690 / sexualize-reveal 1,453 / explicit-situation 933 / unresolved 1,540; full judge table in unresolved_relabeled.parquet.

Derived file: a variant with the 800 synthetic-v4 disambiguating pairs and judge-resolved sublabels (1,540 unresolved rows excluded) exists as train_v4_fix.parquet — used to train the 4-class variant; see Model provenance.

Prompt length (characters): p10 = 26, p50 = 89, p90 = 296, p99 = 617, mean 133.3.

I2P oversampling (train split only): sexual-category label-2 rows ×4, label-1 rows ×2 — applied before the eval set was held out.

Dataset creation

Curation rationale

Real NCII request text is barely available in redistributable form, and real phrasings differ systematically from what synthetic generators produce by default (real public Grok requests: 74% clothing-replacement, 7% JSON prompt specs, 1% explicit anatomy; benign-sounding phrasing dominates real T2I sexual prompts — I2P: 1.5% toxicity). The set therefore combines (a) real data wherever licensing allowed, (b) generation conditioned on a taxonomy derived from real-request studies (content-type × target-relation × phrasing-format × explicitness × media; sources: TfGBV-Grok, SNEACI, arXiv 2606.27234 — 74.75% non-celebrity targets, provider-solicited relation claims —, I2P, Ring-A-Bell, arXiv 2310.10012), interpolated toward uniform to slightly over-represent rare cells, and (c) contrastive safe families mirroring unsafe families with one attribute changed (orientation/gender/ethnicity flips, consent context, explicitness) so guards learn not to over-moderate LGBT affection and benign demographic references.

Initial data collection and normalization

All rows collected from the sources below; exact-duplicate dedup across pools (keep-first; ~520 duplicates removed); sexual-keyword exclusion filter applied to generic-prompt negatives; synthetic refusal generations removed (418 across rounds); normalized to the field schema; texts used verbatim (no rewriting/translation).

Source data: how examples were identified

source	rows	identification rule
curated-splits	17,304	Training rows of a curated collection of real edit prompts + annotated NCII requests (ncii-guard-splits-v3-2k; upstream: real corpora RealEdit, EditScore-RL-Data, HumanEdit, ImageGem-CivitAI rephrasings, EditJudge-Bench, GEditBench(-v2), Kontext-Bench, OmniEdit; ~1,400 rows manually re-annotated by the collection author; ncii-risk positives ~1,000 synthetic; provenance in the light-guard card).
grok-ncii	357	Real public X posts requesting/sharing nudification prompts for the Grok image model (TfGBV-Grok, sanitized, CC-BY-NC-4.0). Mapped from Actor_Type (kept: PERPETRATOR_REQUEST, PROMPT_SHARING; excluded: COMMENTARY, VICTIM_TESTIMONY, REPORTING_ABUSE, BENIGN_GROK_USE) and Harm_Type; label 2 unless no sexual/clothing/body marker in the text (→ 0); minor-mentioning rows excluded outright (2); 115 exact-duplicate texts removed.
i2p	1,671	AIML-TUDA/i2p (MIT) prompts where categories contains "sexual" or nudity_percentage ≥ 50; label 1 if no identifiable person referenced, else 2; label-2 ×4 / label-1 ×2 oversampled (train only).
gedit-bench	1,018	Real editing instructions from stepfun-ai/GEdit-Bench — safe negatives by construction.
sd-prompts	3,355	Gustavosta/Stable-Diffusion-Prompts prompts passing the sexual-keyword exclusion filter — safe negatives.
synthetic	4,149	Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct-generated, seeded instruction families: nudify (deictic/named/T2I-tag-soup), explicit-generic (anonymous), safe-person edits, LGBT identity-cell safe edits (10 cells incl. trans man/woman/couple, nonbinary, drag). Label = family target.
synthetic-v3	3,337	Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507-generated (selected over Qwen3-8B in a refusal/diversity pilot), taxonomy-conditioned families: clothing-replacement (natural 350 + JSON-spec 300), undress-deictic 400, benign-phrasing 300, explicit-situation 250, body-mod 150, video-I2V 300, body-part-explicit 100, obfuscated 150, contrastive-safe 500 (incl. attribute-flip pairs 400, demographic-balanced 250, religion/skin-tone 120). 367 refusals filtered.
synthetic-v4-pairs	800	Disambiguating minimal pairs (Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct; 0 refusals): identical scenario, strict (nudity) vs reveal (revealing clothing) variants. Included only in the derived train_v4_fix.parquet (4-class training), not in this file.

Annotations

Annotation process — automated, three stages; no human review of rows added in this project (the only human annotation is the upstream author's ~1,400-row re-annotation inside curated-splits, inherited verbatim):

1. Rule stage — per-source identification (table above) + regex sublabel assignment on class-2 rows (keyword regexes per sublabel; unmatched → unresolved).
2. Judge stage — every class-2 row (6,616) re-annotated by Shieldstral-1.0-3B with three yes/no policy queries (nudify / sexualize-reveal / explicit-situation), first-token log-probabilities renormalized; best ≥0.5 kept (high at ≥0.8, else low), else unresolved. Both rule and judge columns are shipped; the 4-class training used judge labels and excluded the 1,540 rows left unresolved.
3. Synthetic plan labels — synthetic rows inherit the label of their generation family (labels known by construction).

Who are the annotators? Automated pipelines only (regex rules; Shieldstral-1.0-3B; generation plans). No human annotators for project-added rows.

Model provenance (which released model trained on which data version)

model	trained on
v1	earlier composition (pre-v3 row additions)
v2	27,497-row composition (no grok-ncii, no synthetic-v3)
v3	final composition (clean retrain): this exact released data — refusal-free, grok splits fixed. Its earlier run (pre-repair) is superseded; the prior run's eval numbers are archived in its git history
v3-4class	final: judge-resolved sublabels, unresolved rows excluded, synthetic-v4 pairs included, grok rows included, refusal rows excluded (derived train_v4_fix.parquet, 30,451 rows + 800 pairs)

The released train.parquet is the final composition; reproduce any model's exact training data by checking out the synth-v1 file versions referenced in its card.

Release names (identical weights, packaged for deployment): ncii-guard-light-three-v01 = v3 clean retrain; ncii-guard-light-four-v01 = 4-class final; ncii-guard-light-binary-v01 = the deployed binary baseline (upstream-trained, mirrored).

Personal and sensitive information

Contains real request texts about (often identifiable) people, including explicit language; some Grok rows contain platform handles (pseudonymized upstream). No imagery. Minor-mentioning rows excluded outright. Labels are text-only heuristics — no claim about any real person's consent, identity, or intent. Takedown/correction: see Access and maintenance.

Considerations

Social impact

The set supports harm reduction (guards against NCII generation are expected of editing-model deployers, e.g. under EU AI Act transparency obligations). Risks of publishing real request texts are mitigated by manual-approval gating, absence of imagery and working jailbreak chains, exclusion of minor-related content, and a prioritized takedown process.

Limitations

1. No human verification of project-added labels; rule and judge annotators inherit their biases, and rule-vs-judge sublabel disagreement (100+ rows) means sublabel-level conclusions require the judge annotations.
2. Class imbalance: safe rows outnumber ncii-risk ~3.5:1; training recipes compensated with class weights and oversampling (documented per model card).
3. Grok selection bias: grok-ncii rows are shaped by that service's guardrails (clothing-replacement-heavy); the generation taxonomy triangulated across sources but the skew is not eliminated.
4. Synthetic-real coupling: synthetic rows share generation processes with the synthetic eval slices (style-disjoint seeds only) — guards see synthetic-v3-style text at training time, so eval slices of the same family are optimistic; real-row estimates are the honest ones.
5. English-dominant; 514 Chinese and a small number of mixed-language rows are not translated.
6. Labels are text-only heuristics — no consent, intent, or identity ground truth exists in text.

Access and maintenance

• Access: gated, manual approval via the Hub gating feature — include a short statement of purpose; approved for safety research and deployment evaluation.
• Feedback, label-error reports, takedown/correction requests: the dataset Discussions tab; real-text takedown requests prioritized.
• Maintenance: additive growth only (new rows carry a new source/version marker); the eval set stays frozen.
