ConTEB - Covid-QA
This dataset is part of ConTEB (Context-aware Text Embedding Benchmark), designed for evaluating contextual embedding model capabilities. It focuses on the theme of Healthcare, particularly stemming from articles about the COVID-19 pandemic.
Dataset Summary
This dataset was designed to elicit contextual information. It is built upon the COVID-QA dataset. To build the corpus, we start from the pre-existing collection documents, extract the text, and chunk them (using LangChain's RecursiveCharacterSplitter with a threshold of 1000 characters). We use GPT-4o to annotate which chunk, among the gold document, best contains information needed to answer the query. Since chunking is done a posteriori without considering the questions, chunks are not always self-contained and eliciting document-wide context can help build meaningful representations.
This dataset provides a focused benchmark for contextualized embeddings. It includes a curated set of original documents, chunks stemming from them, and queries.
- Number of Documents: 115
- Number of Chunks: 3351
- Number of Queries: 1111
- Average Number of Tokens per Doc: 153.9
Dataset Structure (Hugging Face Datasets)
The dataset is structured into the following columns:
- `documents`: Contains chunk information:
"chunk_id": The ID of the chunk, of the formdoc-id_chunk-id, wheredoc-idis the ID of the original document andchunk-idis the position of the chunk within that document."chunk": The text of the chunk- `queries`: Contains query information:
"query": The text of the query."answer": The answer relevant to the query, from the original dataset."chunk_id": The ID of the chunk that the query is related to, of the formdoc-id_chunk-id, wheredoc-idis the ID of the original document andchunk-idis the position of the chunk within that document.
