### Dataset Summary | |
FQuAD: French Question Answering Dataset | |
We introduce FQuAD, a native French Question Answering Dataset. | |
FQuAD contains 25,000+ question and answer pairs. | |
Finetuning CamemBERT on FQuAD yields a F1 score of 88% and an exact match of 77.9%. | |
Developped to provide a SQuAD equivalent in the French language. Questions are original and based on high quality Wikipedia articles. | |
Please, note this dataset is licensed for non-commercial purposes and users must agree to the following terms and conditions: | |
1. Use FQuAD only for internal research purposes. | |
2. Not make any copy except a safety one. | |
3. Not redistribute it (or part of it) in any way, even for free. | |
4. Not sell it or use it for any commercial purpose. Contact us for a possible commercial licence. | |
5. Mention the corpus origin and Illuin Technology in all publications about experiments using FQuAD. | |
6. Redistribute to Illuin Technology any improved or enriched version you could make of that corpus. | |
Request manually download of the data from: https://fquad.illuin.tech/ | |
### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards | |
- `closed-domain-qa`, `text-retrieval`: This dataset is intended to be used for `closed-domain-qa`, but can also be used for information retrieval tasks. | |
### Languages | |
This dataset is exclusively in French, with context data from Wikipedia and questions from French university students (`fr`). | |
## Dataset Structure | |
### Data Instances | |
#### default | |
- **Size of downloaded dataset files:** 3.29 MB | |
- **Size of the generated dataset:** 6.94 MB | |
- **Total amount of disk used:** 10.23 MB | |
An example of 'validation' looks as follows. | |
``` | |
This example was too long and was cropped: | |
{ | |
"answers": { | |
"answers_starts": [161, 46, 204], | |
"texts": ["La Vierge aux rochers", "documents contemporains", "objets de spéculations"] | |
}, | |
"context": "\"Les deux tableaux sont certes décrits par des documents contemporains à leur création mais ceux-ci ne le font qu'indirectement ...", | |
"questions": ["Que concerne principalement les documents ?", "Par quoi sont décrit les deux tableaux ?", "Quels types d'objets sont les deux tableaux aux yeux des chercheurs ?"] | |
} | |
``` | |
### Data Fields | |
The data fields are the same among all splits. | |
#### default | |
- `context`: a `string` feature. | |
- `questions`: a `list` of `string` features. | |
- `answers`: a dictionary feature containing: | |
- `texts`: a `string` feature. | |
- `answers_starts`: a `int32` feature. | |
### Data Splits | |
The FQuAD dataset has 3 splits: _train_, _validation_, and _test_. The _test_ split is however not released publicly at the moment. The splits contain disjoint sets of articles. The following table contains stats about each split. | |
Dataset Split | Number of Articles in Split | Number of paragraphs in split | Number of questions in split | |
--------------|------------------------------|--------------------------|------------------------- | |
Train | 117 | 4921 | 20731 | |
Validation | 768 | 51.0% | 3188 | |
Test | 10 | 532 | 2189 | |
## Dataset Creation | |
### Curation Rationale | |
The FQuAD dataset was created by Illuin technology. It was developped to provide a SQuAD equivalent in the French language. Questions are original and based on high quality Wikipedia articles. | |
### Source Data | |
The text used for the contexts are from the curated list of French High-Quality Wikipedia [articles](https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat%C3%A9gorie:Article_de_qualit%C3%A9). | |
### Annotations | |
Annotations (spans and questions) are written by students of the CentraleSupélec school of engineering. | |
Wikipedia articles were scraped and Illuin used an internally-developped tool to help annotators ask questions and indicate the answer spans. | |
Annotators were given paragraph sized contexts and asked to generate 4/5 non-trivial questions about information in the context. | |
### Personal and Sensitive Information | |
No personal or sensitive information is included in this dataset. This has been manually verified by the dataset curators. | |
## Considerations for Using the Data | |
Users should consider this dataset is sampled from Wikipedia data which might not be representative of all QA use cases. | |
### Social Impact of Dataset | |
The social biases of this dataset have not yet been investigated. | |
### Discussion of Biases | |
The social biases of this dataset have not yet been investigated, though articles have been selected by their quality and objectivity. | |
### Other Known Limitations | |
The limitations of the FQuAD dataset have not yet been investigated. | |
## Additional Information | |
### Dataset Curators | |

### Licensing Information | |
The FQuAD dataset is licensed under the [CC BY-NC-SA 3.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/fr/) license. | |
It allows personal and academic research uses of the dataset, but not commercial uses. So concretely, the dataset cannot be used to train a model that is then put into production within a business or a company. For this type of commercial use, we invite FQuAD users to contact [the authors](https://www.illuin.tech/contact/) to discuss possible partnerships. | |
