### Dataset Summary

A dataset adopting the FEVER methodology that consists of 1,535 real-world claims regarding climate-change collected on the internet. Each claim is accompanied by five manually annotated evidence sentences retrieved from the English Wikipedia that support, refute or do not give enough information to validate the claim totalling in 7,675 claim-evidence pairs. The dataset features challenging claims that relate multiple facets and disputed cases of claims where both supporting and refuting evidence are present.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

[Needs More Information]

### Languages

The text in the dataset is in English, as found in real-world claims about climate-change on the Internet. The associated BCP-47 code is `en`.

### Data Fields

- `claim_id`: a `string` feature, unique claim identifier.
- `claim`: a `string` feature, claim text.
- `claim_label`: a `int` feature, overall label assigned to claim (based on evidence majority vote). The label correspond to 0: "supports", 1: "refutes", 2: "not enough info" and 3: "disputed".
- `evidences`: a list of evidences with fields:
 - `evidence_id`: a `string` feature,  unique evidence identifier.
 - `evidence_label`: a `int` feature, micro-verdict label. The label correspond to 0: "supports", 1: "refutes" and 2: "not enough info".
 - `article`: a `string` feature, title of source article (Wikipedia page).
 - `evidence`: a `string` feature, evidence sentence.
 - `entropy`: a `float32` feature, entropy reflecting uncertainty of `evidence_label`.
 - `votes`: a `list` of `string` features, corresponding to individual votes.

### Data Splits

This benchmark dataset currently consists of a single data split `test` that consists of 1,535 claims or 7,675 claim-evidence pairs.
