- **Homepage:** [https://scifact.apps.allenai.org/](https://scifact.apps.allenai.org/)
- **Repository:** <https://github.com/allenai/scifact>

- **Point of Contact:** [David Wadden](mailto:davidw@allenai.org)

### Dataset Summary

SciFact, a dataset of 1.4K expert-written scientific claims paired with evidence-containing abstracts, and annotated with labels and rationales.

For more information on the dataset, see [allenai/scifact](https://huggingface.co/datasets/allenai/scifact).
This has the same data, but reformatted as an entailment task. A single instance includes a claim paired with a paper title and abstract, together with an entailment label and a list of evidence sentences (if any).

## Dataset Structure

### Data fields

- `claim_id`: An `int32` claim identifier.
- `claim`: A `string`.
- `abstract_id`: An `int32` abstract identifier.
- `title`: A `string`.
- `abstract`: A list of `strings`, one for each sentence in the abstract.
- `verdict`: The fact-checking verdict, a `string`.
- `evidence`: A list of sentences from the abstract which provide evidence for the verdict.
