### Dataset Summary
Japanese Question Answering Dataset (JaQuAD), released in 2022, is a
human-annotated dataset created for Japanese Machine Reading Comprehension.
JaQuAD is developed to provide a SQuAD-like QA dataset in Japanese.
JaQuAD contains 39,696 question-answer pairs.
Questions and answers are manually curated by human annotators.
Contexts are collected from Japanese Wikipedia articles.
Fine-tuning [BERT-Japanese](https://huggingface.co/cl-tohoku/bert-base-japanese)
on JaQuAD achieves 78.92% for an F1 score and 63.38% for an exact match.
### Supported Tasks
- `extractive-qa`: This dataset is intended to be used for `extractive-qa`.
### Languages
Japanese (`ja`)
## Dataset Structure
### Data Instances
- **Size of dataset files:** 24.6 MB
- **Size of the generated dataset:** 48.6 MB
- **Total amount of disk used:** 73.2 MB
An example of 'validation':
```python
{
"id": "de-001-00-000",
"title": "イタセンパラ",
"context": "イタセンパラ(板鮮腹、Acheilognathuslongipinnis)は、コイ科のタナゴ亜科タナゴ属に分類される淡水>魚の一種。\n別名はビワタナゴ(琵琶鱮、琵琶鰱)。",
"question": "ビワタナゴの正式名称は何?",
"question_type": "Multiple sentence reasoning",
"answers": {
"text": "イタセンパラ",
"answer_start": 0,
"answer_type": "Object",
},
},
```
### Data Fields
- `id`: a `string` feature.
- `title`: a `string` feature.
- `context`: a `string` feature.
- `question`: a `string` feature.
- `question_type`: a `string` feature.
- `answers`: a dictionary feature containing:
- `text`: a `string` feature.
- `answer_start`: a `int32` feature.
- `answer_type`: a `string` feature.
### Data Splitting
JaQuAD consists of three sets, `train`, `validation`, and `test`. They were
created from disjoint sets of Wikipedia articles. The `test` set is not publicly
released yet. The following table shows statistics for each set.
Set | Number of Articles | Number of Contexts | Number of Questions
--------------|--------------------|--------------------|--------------------
Train | 691 | 9713 | 31748
Validation | 101 | 1431 | 3939
Test | 109 | 1479 | 4009
## Dataset Creation
### Curation Rationale
The JaQuAD dataset was created by [Skelter Labs](https://skelterlabs.com/) to
provide a SQuAD-like QA dataset in Japanese. Questions are original and based
on Japanese Wikipedia articles.
### Source Data
The articles used for the contexts are from [Japanese Wikipedia](https://ja.wikipedia.org/).
88.7% of articles are from the curated list of Japanese high-quality Wikipedia
articles, e.g., [featured articles](https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:%E8%89%AF%E8%B3%AA%E3%81%AA%E8%A8%98%E4%BA%8B)
and [good articles](https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:%E7%A7%80%E9%80%B8%E3%81%AA%E8%A8%98%E4%BA%8B).
### Annotations
Wikipedia articles were scrapped and divided into one more multiple paragraphs
as contexts. Annotations (questions and answer spans) are written by fluent
Japanese speakers, including natives and non-natives. Annotators were given a
context and asked to generate non-trivial questions about information in the
context.
### Personal and Sensitive Information
No personal or sensitive information is included in this dataset. Dataset
annotators has been manually verified it.
## Considerations for Using the Data
Users should consider that the articles are sampled from Wikipedia articles but
not representative of all Wikipedia articles.
### Social Impact of Dataset
The social biases of this dataset have not yet been investigated.
### Discussion of Biases
The social biases of this dataset have not yet been investigated. Articles and
questions have been selected for quality and diversity.
### Other Known Limitations
The JaQuAD dataset has limitations as follows:
- Most of them are short answers.
- Assume that a question is answerable using the corresponding context.
This dataset is incomplete yet. If you find any errors in JaQuAD, please contact
us.
