## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

#### default

- **Size of downloaded dataset files:** 516.06 MB
- **Size of the generated dataset:** 2.09 GB
- **Total amount of disk used:** 2.60 GB

An example of 'validation' looks as follows.
```
{
    "answers": [],
    "context": "answer",
    "question": "What is XXX in this question?",
    "relation": "relation_name",
    "subject": "Some entity Here is a bit of context which will explain the question in some way"
}
```

### Data Fields

The data fields are the same among all splits.

#### default
- `relation`: a `string` feature.
- `question`: a `string` feature.
- `subject`: a `string` feature.
- `context`: a `string` feature.
- `answers`: a `list` of `string` features.

### Data Splits

| name    |   train | validation |   test |
|---------|--------:|-----------:|-------:|
| default | 8400000 |       6000 | 120000 |
