Dataset Description

Dataset Summary

Wino-X is a parallel dataset of German, French, and Russian Winograd schemas, aligned with their English counterparts, used to examine whether neural machine translation models can perform coreference resolution that requires commonsense knowledge, and whether multilingual language models are capable of commonsense reasoning across multiple languages.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

  • translation: The dataset can be used to evaluate translations of ambiguous source sentences, as produced by translation models . A pretrained transformer-based NMT model can be used for this purpose.
  • coreference-resolution: The dataset can be used to rank alternative translations of an ambiguous source sentence that differ in the chosen referent of an ambiguous source pronoun. A pretrained transformer-based NMT model can be used for this purpose.
  • commonsense-reasoning: The dataset can also be used evaluate whether pretrained multilingual language models can perform commonsense reasoning in (or across) multiple languages by identifying the correct filler in a cloze completion task. An XLM-based model can be used for this purpose.

Languages

The dataset (both its MT and LM portions) is available in the following translation pairs: English-German, English-French, English-Russian. All English sentences included in Wino-X were extracted from publicly available parallel corpora, as detailed in the accompanying paper, and represent the dataset-specific language varieties. All non-English sentences were obtained through machine translation and may, as such, exhibit features of translationese.

Data Instances

The following represents a typical MT-Wino-X instance (for the English-German translation pair):

{"qID": "3UDTAB6HH8D37OQL3O6F3GXEEOF09Z-1",
"sentence": "The woman looked for a different vase for the bouquet because it was too small.",
"translation1": "Die Frau suchte nach einer anderen Vase für den Blumenstrauß, weil sie zu klein war.",
"translation2": "Die Frau suchte nach einer anderen Vase für den Blumenstrauß, weil er zu klein war.",
"answer": 1,
"pronoun1": "sie",
"pronoun2": "er",
"referent1_en": "vase",
"referent2_en": "bouquet",
"true_translation_referent_of_pronoun1_de": "Vase",

  • "context_referent_of_option2_[TGT-LANG]": English translation of option2_[TGT-LANG]

Data Splits

Wno-X was designed as an evaluation-only benchmark and therefore is intended to be used for zero-shot testing only. However, users are very welcome to split the data as they wish :) .
