You can download the dataset locally using huggingface_hub.snapshot_download and then do

dataset = load_dataset(local_directory_path)

It's good suggestion, but my server env is network restriction. It can not directly fetch data from huggingface. I spent lot of time to download and transfer it to the server.
So, I attempt to make load_dataset connect to my local dataset.
