- - Entity Retrieval: [DBPedia](https://github.com/iai-group/DBpedia-Entity/)
109
-
110
- All these datasets have been preprocessed and can be used for your experiments.
111
-
112
-
113
- ```python
114
-
115
- ```
116
-
117
- ### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
118
-
119
- The dataset supports a leaderboard that evaluates models against task-specific metrics such as F1 or EM, as well as their ability to retrieve supporting information from Wikipedia.
120
-
121
- The current best performing models can be found [here](https://eval.ai/web/challenges/challenge-page/689/leaderboard/).
122
-
123
- ### Languages
124
-
125
- All tasks are in English (`en`).
126
-
127
- ## Dataset Structure
128
-
129
- All BEIR datasets must contain a corpus, queries and qrels (relevance judgments file). They must be in the following format:
130
- - `corpus` file: a `.jsonl` file (jsonlines) that contains a list of dictionaries, each with three fields `_id` with unique document identifier, `title` with document title (optional) and `text` with document paragraph or passage. For example: `{"_id": "doc1", "title": "Albert Einstein", "text": "Albert Einstein was a German-born...."}`
131
- - `queries` file: a `.jsonl` file (jsonlines) that contains a list of dictionaries, each with two fields `_id` with unique query identifier and `text` with query text. For example: `{"_id": "q1", "text": "Who developed the mass-energy equivalence formula?"}`
132
- - `qrels` file: a `.tsv` file (tab-seperated) that contains three columns, i.e. the `query-id`, `corpus-id` and `score` in this order. Keep 1st row as header. For example: `q1 doc1 1`
133
-
134
- ### Data Instances
135
-
136
- A high level example of any beir dataset:
137
-
138
- ```python
139
- corpus = {
140
- "doc1" : {
141
- "title": "Albert Einstein",
142
- "text": "Albert Einstein was a German-born theoretical physicist. who developed the theory of relativity, \
143
- one of the two pillars of modern physics (alongside quantum mechanics). His work is also known for \
144
- its influence on the philosophy of science. He is best known to the general public for his mass–energy \
145
- equivalence formula E = mc2, which has been dubbed 'the world's most famous equation'. He received the 1921 \
146
- Nobel Prize in Physics 'for his services to theoretical physics, and especially for his discovery of the law \
147
- of the photoelectric effect', a pivotal step in the development of quantum theory."
148
- },
149
- "doc2" : {
150
- "title": "", # Keep title an empty string if not present
151
- "text": "Wheat beer is a top-fermented beer which is brewed with a large proportion of wheat relative to the amount of \
152
- malted barley. The two main varieties are German Weißbier and Belgian witbier; other types include Lambic (made\
153
- with wild yeast), Berliner Weisse (a cloudy, sour beer), and Gose (a sour, salty beer)."
154
- },
155
- }
156
-
157
- queries = {
158
- "q1" : "Who developed the mass-energy equivalence formula?",
159
- "q2" : "Which beer is brewed with a large proportion of wheat?"
160
- }
161
-
162
- qrels = {
163
- "q1" : {"doc1": 1},
164
- "q2" : {"doc2": 1},
165
- }
166
- ```
167
-
168
- ### Data Fields
169
-
170
- Examples from all configurations have the following features:
171
-
172
- ### Corpus
173
- - `corpus`: a `dict` feature representing the document title and passage text, made up of:
174
- - `_id`: a `string` feature representing the unique document id
175
- - `title`: a `string` feature, denoting the title of the document.
176
- - `text`: a `string` feature, denoting the text of the document.
177
-
178
- ### Queries
179
- - `queries`: a `dict` feature representing the query, made up of:
180
- - `_id`: a `string` feature representing the unique query id
181
- - `text`: a `string` feature, denoting the text of the query.
182
-
183
- ### Qrels
184
- - `qrels`: a `dict` feature representing the query document relevance judgements, made up of:
185
- - `_id`: a `string` feature representing the query id
186
- - `_id`: a `string` feature, denoting the document id.
187
- - `score`: a `int32` feature, denoting the relevance judgement between query and document.

+ - Entity Retrieval: [DBPedia](https://github.com/iai-group/DBpedia-Entity/)
109
+
110
+ All these datasets have been preprocessed and can be used for your experiments.
111
+
112
+
113
+ ```python
114
+
115
+ ```
116
+
117
+ ### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
118
+
119
+ The dataset supports a leaderboard that evaluates models against task-specific metrics such as F1 or EM, as well as their ability to retrieve supporting information from Wikipedia.
120
+
121
+ The current best performing models can be found [here](https://eval.ai/web/challenges/challenge-page/689/leaderboard/).
122
+
123
+ ### Languages
124
+
125
+ All tasks are in English (`en`).
126
+
127
+ ## Dataset Structure
128
+
129
+ All BEIR datasets must contain a corpus, queries and qrels (relevance judgments file). They must be in the following format:
130
+ - `corpus` file: a `.jsonl` file (jsonlines) that contains a list of dictionaries, each with three fields `_id` with unique document identifier, `title` with document title (optional) and `text` with document paragraph or passage. For example: `{"_id": "doc1", "title": "Albert Einstein", "text": "Albert Einstein was a German-born...."}`
131
+ - `queries` file: a `.jsonl` file (jsonlines) that contains a list of dictionaries, each with two fields `_id` with unique query identifier and `text` with query text. For example: `{"_id": "q1", "text": "Who developed the mass-energy equivalence formula?"}`
132
+ - `qrels` file: a `.tsv` file (tab-seperated) that contains three columns, i.e. the `query-id`, `corpus-id` and `score` in this order. Keep 1st row as header. For example: `q1 doc1 1`
133
+
134
+ ### Data Instances
135
+
136
+ A high level example of any beir dataset:
137
+
138
+ ```python
139
+ corpus = {
140
+ "doc1" : {
141
+ "title": "Albert Einstein",
142
+ "text": "Albert Einstein was a German-born theoretical physicist. who developed the theory of relativity, \
143
+ one of the two pillars of modern physics (alongside quantum mechanics). His work is also known for \
144
+ its influence on the philosophy of science. He is best known to the general public for his mass–energy \
145
+ equivalence formula E = mc2, which has been dubbed 'the world's most famous equation'. He received the 1921 \
146
+ Nobel Prize in Physics 'for his services to theoretical physics, and especially for his discovery of the law \
147
+ of the photoelectric effect', a pivotal step in the development of quantum theory."
148
+ },
149
+ "doc2" : {
150
+ "title": "", # Keep title an empty string if not present
151
+ "text": "Wheat beer is a top-fermented beer which is brewed with a large proportion of wheat relative to the amount of \
152
+ malted barley. The two main varieties are German Weißbier and Belgian witbier; other types include Lambic (made\
153
+ with wild yeast), Berliner Weisse (a cloudy, sour beer), and Gose (a sour, salty beer)."
154
+ },
155
+ }
156
+
157
+ queries = {
158
+ "q1" : "Who developed the mass-energy equivalence formula?",
159
+ "q2" : "Which beer is brewed with a large proportion of wheat?"
160
+ }
161
+
162
+ qrels = {
163
+ "q1" : {"doc1": 1},
164
+ "q2" : {"doc2": 1},
165
+ }
166
+ ```
167
+
168
+ ### Data Fields
169
+
170
+ Examples from all configurations have the following features:
171
+
172
+ ### Corpus
173
+ - `corpus`: a `dict` feature representing the document title and passage text, made up of:
174
+ - `_id`: a `string` feature representing the unique document id
175
+ - `title`: a `string` feature, denoting the title of the document.
176
+ - `text`: a `string` feature, denoting the text of the document.
177
+
178
+ ### Queries
179
+ - `queries`: a `dict` feature representing the query, made up of:
180
+ - `_id`: a `string` feature representing the unique query id
181
+ - `text`: a `string` feature, denoting the text of the query.
182
+
183
+ ### Qrels
184
+ - `qrels`: a `dict` feature representing the query document relevance judgements, made up of:
185
+ - `_id`: a `string` feature representing the query id
186
+ - `_id`: a `string` feature, denoting the document id.
187
+ - `score`: a `int32` feature, denoting the relevance judgement between query and document.
