This repository contains the code/data accompanying our recent work on long-form question answering.
NOTE This dataset should not be used for any commercial purposes. See the license for the detailed terms.
To get the data, see the data/ directory.
Note that the data is stored via git-lfs.
If you're cloning the project (git clone [email protected]:allenai/gooaq.git), make sure to also run git lfs pull as well.
Each row of the data file should look like this:
{
"id": 3339543,
"question": "what is the difference between collagen and whey protein?",
"short_answer": null,
"answer": "The main differences between the amino acid profiles of whey and collagen are that whey contains all 9 essential amino acids, while collagen only has 8. ... Collagen is a fibrous protein found in the skin, cartilage, and bones of animals whereas whey comes from milk.",
"answer_type": "feat_snip"
}where the questions question are collected via Google auto-complete.
The answers responses (short_answer and answer) were collected from Google's answer boxes.
The answer types (answer_type) are inferred based on the html content of Google's response.
Here is the dominant types in the current dataset:
feat_snip: explanatory responses; the majoriy the question/responses are of this type.collection: list responses (e.g., steps to accomplish something).knowledge: typically short responses for knowledge seeking questions.unit_conv: questions about converting units.time_conv: questions about converting times.curr_conv: questions about converting currencies.
Here are several more examples from the data:
