+This release packages the **Android** subforum slice of **CQADupStack** from the [**BEIR**](https://github.com/beir-cellar/beir) (Benchmarking IR) benchmark as a table-oriented dataset for **retrieval** evaluation and tooling (e.g. Langfuse-exported runs).
+
+**CQADupStack** is a community **question answering (cQA)** resource built from **Stack Exchange** forums: posts are paired with **duplicate-question** annotations so systems can be evaluated on finding **earlier questions** that address the same information need. The **Android** subset restricts the corpus and queries to the [**android.stackexchange.com**](https://android.stackexchange.com/) forum—typical topics include device setup, apps, rooting, OEM behavior, and connectivity.
+
+In the **BEIR** formulation, each **test query** is matched against a **corpus** of forum posts (questions with titles and body text, plus metadata such as tags in the upstream BEIR distribution). **Relevance judgments (qrels)** mark which corpus documents are **true duplicates** (or duplicate-cluster members used as positives) for that query. Evaluators rank retrieved documents and measure overlap with these IDs using standard IR metrics.
+
+**Lineage:** [CQADupStack](http://nlp.cis.unimelb.edu.au/resources/cqadupstack/) (original benchmark) → [BEIR `cqadupstack/android`](https://github.com/beir-cellar/beir) → **this Hub dataset** (`orgrctera/beir_cqadupstack_android`).
+
+**Scale (BEIR / ir-datasets):** the Android configuration includes on the order of **~699 test queries** and **~23K corpus documents** (full corpus is indexed at evaluation time; this table stores **query rows** with gold document IDs, not the corpus text).
+
+## Task
+
+- **Task type:** **Retrieval** — **duplicate-question retrieval** on the **CQADupStack Android** collection (BEIR sub-benchmark `cqadupstack_android`).
+- **Input (`input`):** Natural-language **query** text (a Stack Exchange **question** title/body-style string as distributed in BEIR).
+- **Reference (`expected_output`):** A JSON **string** encoding the list of **relevant corpus document IDs** with binary relevance **scores** (typically `1` for relevant pairs), e.g. `[{"id": "1120", "score": 1}, ...]`.
+- **Metadata:** `metadata.query_id` is the BEIR query identifier; `metadata.split` is **`test`** for this release.
+
+The retrieval system’s job is to return the correct **corpus document IDs** for each query when scored against the full **CQADupStack Android** corpus distributed with BEIR (not duplicated row-wise in this table).
+
+## Background
+
+### CQADupStack (original dataset)
+
+Doris Hoogeveen, Karin M. Verspoor, and Timothy Baldwin introduced **CQADupStack** as a **benchmark for community question answering**, with emphasis on **duplicate question detection** and related retrieval/classification setups. The resource spans **twelve** Stack Exchange subforums; each subforum provides **annotated duplicate relations** derived from site curation (e.g. “linked” / duplicate closures), enabling comparable **train/test** splits for retrieval and classification experiments. The underlying posts come from **Stack Exchange** data dumps (the original release notes reference a **September 26, 2014** dump).
+
+> *Community question answering (cQA) forums accumulate large volumes of user-generated knowledge… Duplicate question detection—identifying whether a new question has already been answered—is central to maintaining these archives.*  
+> *(Paraphrased theme; see the ADCS 2015 paper below for the full problem statement and methodology.)*

+
+### BEIR reformulation
+
+**BEIR** (Thakur et al., NeurIPS 2021 Datasets & Benchmarks) repackages CQADupStack (per subforum, including **android**) into a unified layout: **corpus** (JSONL: `_id`, `title`, `text`, …), **queries** (JSONL: `_id`, `text`, …), and **qrels** (TSV). That format supports **zero-shot** comparison of lexical, sparse, dense, and reranking retrievers across heterogeneous tasks.
+
+### This release
+
+Rows were **exported from Langfuse** (CTERA AI evaluation pipeline) in a flat, Parquet-friendly schema: **one row per query** with **gold relevant document IDs** in `expected_output` for downstream scoring and observability.
+
+## Data fields
+
+| Column | Type | Description |
+|--------|------|-------------|
+| `id` | `string` | Stable UUID for this row in this Hub release. |
+| `input` | `string` | Query text (natural-language question). |
+| `expected_output` | `string` | JSON string: list of objects `{"id": "<corpus-doc-id>", "score": <int>}` — qrels for that query. |
+| `metadata.query_id` | `string` | BEIR CQADupStack Android query identifier. |
+| `metadata.split` | `string` | Split name: `test`. |

+## Examples
+
+Real rows from this dataset (IDs and text as published on the Hub).
+
+### Example 1 — multi-duplicate query
+
+- **`input`:** `Symbolic link to Dropbox`
+- **`metadata.query_id`:** `47290`
+- **`metadata.split`:** `test`
+- **`expected_output`:**
+```json
+[
+  {"id": "1120", "score": 1},
+  {"id": "31804", "score": 1},
+  {"id": "14873", "score": 1},

+]
+```
+
+### Example 2 — single relevant document
