Dataset Card for "PAQ_pairs"
Dataset Summary
Pairs questions and answers obtained from Wikipedia.
Disclaimer: The team releasing PAQ QA pairs did not upload the dataset to the Hub and did not write a dataset card. These steps were done by the Model Database team.
Supported Tasks
- Sentence Transformers training; useful for semantic search and sentence similarity.
Languages
- English.
Dataset Structure
Each example in the dataset contains pairs of sentences and is formatted as a dictionary with the key "set" and a list with the sentences as "value". The first sentence is a question and the second an answer; thus, both sentences would be similar.
{"set": [sentence_1, sentence_2]}
{"set": [sentence_1, sentence_2]}
...
{"set": [sentence_1, sentence_2]}
This dataset is useful for training Sentence Transformers models. Refer to the following post on how to train models using similar pairs of sentences.
Usage Example
Install the 🤗 Datasets library with pip install datasets
and load the dataset from the Hub with:
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("embedding-data/PAQ_pairs")
The dataset is loaded as a DatasetDict
and has the format:
DatasetDict({
train: Dataset({
features: ['set'],
num_rows: 64371441
})
})
Review an example i
with:
