ELI5
Scripts and tools to recreate the ELI5 dataset for long-form question answering research.
What is ELI5?
ELI5 is a research project that provides scripts and tools to recreate a dataset for long-form question answering (LFQA). It constructs a corpus by pairing explanatory questions and answers from the ELI5 subreddit with supporting documents from CommonCrawl, enabling the training of models that generate detailed, paragraph-length answers. The project addresses the need for high-quality, open datasets in the LFQA research community.
Researchers and practitioners in natural language processing, specifically those working on long-form question answering, dataset creation, or generative language models. It is also relevant for academics and engineers needing reproducible pipelines for large-scale text data processing.
ELI5 offers a transparent, script-based approach to dataset creation, allowing full control and customization over the data pipeline. Unlike static datasets, it provides tools to regenerate the dataset with updated sources or heuristics, and includes pretrained models and evaluation scripts to jumpstart LFQA experiments.
