# Dataset Card for Yahoo Answers |
|
|
|
This dataset is a collection of pairs containing titles, questions, and answers collected from Yahoo Answers. See the [Yahoo Answers](https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/soumikrakshit/yahoo-answers-dataset) dataset for additional information. This dataset can be used directly with Sentence Transformers to train embedding models. |
|
|
|
## Dataset Subsets |
|
|
|
### `title-question-answer-pair` subset |
|
|
|
* Columns: "question", "answer" |
|
* Column types: `str`, `str` |
|
* Examples: |
|
```python |
|
{ |
|
'question': "why doesn't an optical mouse work on a glass table? or even on some surfaces?", |
|
'answer': "why doesn't an optical mouse work on a glass table? Optical mice use an LED and a camera to rapidly capture images of the surface beneath the mouse. The infomation from the camera is analyzed by a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and used to detect imperfections in the underlying surface and determine motion. Some materials, such as glass, mirrors or other very shiny, uniform surfaces interfere with the ability of the DSP to accurately analyze the surface beneath the mouse. \\nSince glass is transparent and very uniform, the mouse is unable to pick up enough imperfections in the underlying surface to determine motion. Mirrored surfaces are also a problem, since they constantly reflect back the same image, causing the DSP not to recognize motion properly. When the system is unable to see surface changes associated with movement, the mouse will not work properly.", |
|
} |
|
``` |
|
* Collection strategy: Reading the `title-answer-pair` and `title-question-pair` datasets, matching up the titles, filtering on just 1 question and 1 answer, and then concatenating the title + the question as the question. |
|
* Deduplified: No |
|
