## Dataset Description |
|
|
|
- **Homepage:** http://participants-area.bioasq.org/datasets/ |
|
- **Pubmed:** True |
|
- **Public:** False |
|
- **Tasks:** Question Answering |
|
|
|
|
|
The BioASQ corpus contains multiple question |
|
answering tasks annotated by biomedical experts, including yes/no, factoid, list, |
|
and summary questions. Pertaining to our objective of comparing neural language |
|
models, we focus on the the yes/no questions (Task 7b), and leave the inclusion |
|
of other tasks to future work. Each question is paired with a reference text |
|
containing multiple sentences from a PubMed abstract and a yes/no answer. We use |
|
the official train/dev/test split of 670/75/140 questions. |
