Dataset Summary

Aya Evaluation Suite contains a total of 25,750 open-ended conversation-style prompts to evaluate multilingual open-ended generation quality.
To strike a balance between language coverage and the quality that comes with human curation, we create an evaluation suite that includes:

1. human-curated examples in 7 languages (tur,eng,yor,arb,zho,por,tel).
2. machine-translations of handpicked examples into 101 languages.
3. human-post-edited translations into 6 languages (hin,srp,rus,fra,arb,spa).

  Name	Explanation
  aya_dataset	Human-annotated multilingual instruction finetuning dataset, comprising over 204K instances across 65 languages.
  aya_collection	Created by applying instruction-style templates from fluent speakers to 44 datasets, including translations of 19 instruction-style datasets into 101 languages, providing 513k instances for various tasks.
  aya_evaluation_suite	A diverse evaluation set for multilingual open-ended generation, featuring 250 culturally grounded prompts in 7 languages, 200 translated prompts in 24 languages, and human-edited versions selected for cross-cultural relevance from English Dolly in 6 languages.

Dataset

The Aya Evaluation Suite includes the following subsets:

1. aya-human-annotated: 250 original human-written prompts in 7 languages each.
2. dolly-machine-translated: 200 human-selected prompts from databricks-dolly-15k , automatically translated with the NLLB model from English into 101 languages (114 dialects in total).
3. dolly-human-edited: 200 dolly-machine-translated prompts post-edited by fluent speakers for 6 languages.

Load with Datasets

To load this dataset consisting of both prompt-completions and demographics data with datasets, you'll just need to install Datasets as pip install datasets --upgrade and then use the following code:

from datasets import load_dataset

aya_eval = load_dataset("CohereForAI/aya_evaluation_suite", "dataset")

Data Fields

• id: Unique id of the data point.
• inputs: Prompt or input to the language model.
• targets: Completion or output of the language model. (Not applicable for dolly-human-edited)
• language: The language of the prompt and completion.
• script: The writing system of the language.

Data Instances

An example of the Aya Evaluation Suite looks as follows:

{
"id": 42,
"prompt": "What day is known as Star Wars Day?",
"completion": "May 4th (May the 4th be with you!)",
"language": "eng",
"script": "Latn",
}
