Dataset Summary

SQuAD dataset for question generation (QG) task. The split of train/development/test set follows the "Neural Question Generation" work and is compatible with the leader board.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

question-generation: The dataset can be used to train a model for question generation. Success on this task is typically measured by achieving a high BLEU4/METEOR/ROUGE-L score. This task has an active leaderboard which can be found at here.

{
  "question": "What is heresy mainly at odds with?",
  "paragraph": "Heresy is any provocative belief or theory that is strongly at variance with established beliefs or customs. A heretic is a proponent of such claims or beliefs. Heresy is distinct from both apostasy, which is the explicit renunciation of one's religion, principles or cause, and blasphemy, which is an impious utterance or action concerning God or sacred things.",
  "answer": "established beliefs or customs",
  "sentence": "Heresy is any provocative belief or theory that is strongly at variance with established beliefs or customs .",

Data Fields

The data fields are the same among all splits.

plain_text

question: a string feature.
paragraph: a string feature.
answer: a string feature.
sentence: a string feature.
paragraph_answer: a string feature, which is same as the paragraph but the answer is highlighted by a special token <hl>.
paragraph_sentence: a string feature, which is same as the paragraph but a sentence containing the answer is highlighted by a special token <hl>.
sentence_answer: a string feature, which is same as the sentence but the answer is highlighted by a special token <hl>.

Each of paragraph_answer, paragraph_sentence, and sentence_answer feature is assumed to be used to train a question generation model, but with different information. The paragraph_answer and sentence_answer features are for answer-aware question generation and paragraph_sentence feature is for sentence-aware question generation.
