+ <!-- Provide a quick summary of the dataset. -->
42
+
43
+ NorQuAD is the first Norwegian question answering dataset for machine reading comprehension, created from scratch in Norwegian. The dataset consists of 4,752 manually created question-answer pairs.
44
+
45
+ ## Dataset Details
46
+
47
+ ### Dataset Description
48
+
49
+ <!-- Provide a longer summary of what this dataset is. -->
50
+ The dataset was created in three stages: (i) selecting text passages, (ii) collecting question-answer
51
+ pairs for those passages, and (iii) human validation of (a subset of) created question-answer pairs.
52
+
53
+ #### Text selection
54
+
55
+ Data was selected from openly available sources from Wikipedia and News data.
56
+
57
+
58
+ #### Question-Answer Pairs
59
+
60
+
61
+
62
+
63
+ #### Human validation
64
+
65
+ In a separate stage, the annotators validated a subset of the NorQuAD dataset. In this phase each
66
+ annotator replied to the questions created by the
67
+ other annotator. We chose the question-answer
68
+ pairs for validation at random. In total, 1378 questions from the set of question-answer pairs, were
69
+ answered by validators.

103
+
104
+ <!-- This section provides a description of the dataset fields, and additional information about the dataset structure such as criteria used to create the splits, relationships between data points, etc. -->

108
+ ## Dataset Creation
109
+
110
+ ### Curation Rationale
111
+
112
+ <!-- Motivation for the creation of this dataset. -->
113
+ Machine reading comprehension is one of the key problems in natural language understanding. The question answering (QA) task requires a machine to read and comprehend a given text passage, and then answer questions about the passage. There is progress in reading comprehension and question answering for English and a few other languages. We would like to fill in the lack of annotated data for question answering for Norwegian. This project aims at compiling human-created training, validation, and test sets for the task for Norwegian.
114
+
115
+ ### Source Data
116
+
117
+ <!-- This section describes the source data (e.g. news text and headlines, social media posts, translated sentences, ...). -->
118
+
119
+ **Wikipedia**: 872 articles were sampled from Norwegian Bokmal Wikipedia.
120
+
121
+ **News**: For the news category, articles were sampled from Norsk Aviskorpus, an openly available dataset of Norwegian news.
122
+
123
+ #### Data Collection and Processing
124
+
125
+ <!-- This section describes the data collection and processing process such as data selection criteria, filtering and normalization methods, tools and libraries used, etc. -->
126
+
127
+ **Wikipedia**:In order to include high-quality articles, 130 articles from the
128
+ ‘Recommended‘ section and 139 from the ‘Featured‘ section were sampled. The remaining 603 articles were randomly sampled from the remaining Wikipedia
129
+ corpus. From the sampled articles, we chose only the “Introduction“ sections to be selected as passages for annotation.
130
+
131
+ **News**: 1000 articles were sampled from the Norsk Aviskorpus (NAK)—a collection of Norwegian news texts
132
+ for the year 2019. As was the case with Wikipedia articles, we chose
133
+ only news articles which consisted of at least 300
134
+ words.
135
+
136
+ #### Who are the source data producers?
137
+
138
+ <!-- This section describes the people or systems who originally created the data. It should also include self-reported demographic or identity information for the source data creators if this information is available. -->
139
+
140
+ [More Information Needed]
141
+
142
+ ### Annotations [optional]
143
+
144
+ <!-- If the dataset contains annotations which are not part of the initial data collection, use this section to describe them. -->
145
+ In total, the annotators processed 353 passages from Wikipedia and 403 passages from news, creating a
146
+ total of 4,752 question-answer pairs.
147
+
148
+
149
+ #### Annotation process
150
+
151
+ <!-- This section describes the annotation process such as annotation tools used in the process, the amount of data annotated, annotation guidelines provided to the annotators, interannotator statistics, annotation validation, etc. -->
152
+
153
+ The annotation guidelines provided to the annotators are available (here)[https://github.com/ltgoslo/NorQuAD/blob/main/guidelines.md].
154
+ For annotation, we used the Haystack annotation tool which was designed for QA collection.
155
+
156
+ [More Information Needed]
157
+
158
+ #### Who are the annotators?
159
+
160
+ <!-- This section describes the people or systems who created the annotations. -->
161
+
162
+ Two students of the Master’s program in Natural Language Processing at the University of Oslo,
163
+ both native Norwegian speakers, created question-answer pairs from the collected passages. Each
164
+ student received separate set of passages for annotation. The students received financial remuneration for their efforts and are co-authors of the
165
+ paper describing the resource.
166
+
167

169
+ #### Personal and Sensitive Information

+
171
+ <!-- State whether the dataset contains data that might be considered personal, sensitive, or private (e.g., data that reveals addresses, uniquely identifiable names or aliases, racial or ethnic origins, sexual orientations, religious beliefs, political opinions, financial or health data, etc.). If efforts were made to anonymize the data, describe the anonymization process. -->
