The languages of TyDi QA are diverse with regard to their typology -- the set of linguistic features that each language expresses -- such that we expect models performing well on this set to generalize across a large number of the languages in the world. It contains language phenomena that would not be found in English-only corpora. To provide a realistic information-seeking task and avoid priming effects, questions are written by people who want to know the answer, but don’t know the answer yet, (unlike SQuAD and its descendents) and the data is collected directly in each language without the use of translation (unlike MLQA and XQuAD). ### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards [More Information Needed](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#how-to-contribute-to-the-dataset-cards) ### Languages [More Information Needed](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#how-to-contribute-to-the-dataset-cards) ## Dataset Structure ### Data Instances #### primary_task - **Size of downloaded dataset files:** 1863.37 MB - **Size of the generated dataset:** 5757.59 MB - **Total amount of disk used:** 7620.96 MB An example of 'validation' looks as follows. ``` This example was too long and was cropped: { "annotations": { "minimal_answers_end_byte": [-1, -1, -1], "minimal_answers_start_byte": [-1, -1, -1], "passage_answer_candidate_index": [-1, -1, -1], "yes_no_answer": ["NONE", "NONE", "NONE"] }, "document_plaintext": "\"\\nรองศาสตราจารย์[1] หม่อมราชวงศ์สุขุมพันธุ์ บริพัตร (22 กันยายน 2495 -) ผู้ว่าราชการกรุงเทพมหานครคนที่ 15 อดีตรองหัวหน้าพรรคปร...", "document_title": "หม่อมราชวงศ์สุขุมพันธุ์ บริพัตร", "document_url": "\"https://th.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%B8%AB%E0%B8%A1%E0%B9%88%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%A1%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%8A%E0%B8%A7%E0%B8%87%E0%B8%...", "language": "thai", "passage_answer_candidates": "{\"plaintext_end_byte\": [494, 1779, 2931, 3904, 4506, 5588, 6383, 7122, 8224, 9375, 10473, 12563, 15134, 17765, 19863, 21902, 229...", "question_text": "\"หม่อมราชวงศ์สุขุมพันธุ์ บริพัตร เรียนจบจากที่ไหน ?\"..." } ``` ### Data Fields The data fields are the same among all splits. #### primary_task - `passage_answer_candidates`: a dictionary feature containing: - `plaintext_start_byte`: a `int32` feature. - `plaintext_end_byte`: a `int32` feature. - `question_text`: a `string` feature. - `document_title`: a `string` feature. - `language`: a `string` feature. - `annotations`: a dictionary feature containing: - `passage_answer_candidate_index`: a `int32` feature. - `minimal_answers_start_byte`: a `int32` feature. - `minimal_answers_end_byte`: a `int32` feature. - `yes_no_answer`: a `string` feature. - `document_plaintext`: a `string` feature. - `document_url`: a `string` feature. ### Data Splits | name | train | validation | | -------------- | -----: | ---------: | | primary_task | 166916 | 18670 | ## Dataset Creation ### Curation Rationale [More Information Needed](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#how-to-contribute-to-the-dataset-cards) ### Source Data #### Initial Data Collection and Normalization [More Information Needed](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#how-to-contribute-to-the-dataset-cards) #### Who are the source language producers?
