A Question Answering Benchmark with Implicit Reasoning Strategies
The StrategyQA dataset was created through a crowdsourcing pipeline for eliciting creative and diverse yes/no questions that require implicit reasoning steps. To solve questions in StrategyQA, the reasoning steps should be inferred using a strategy. To guide and evaluate the question answering process, each example in StrategyQA was annotated with a decomposition into reasoning steps for answering it, and Wikipedia paragraphs that provide evidence for the answer to each step.
Illustrated in the figure below: Questions in StrategyQA (Q1) require implicit reasoning, in contrast to multi-step questions that explicitly specify the reasoning process (Q2). Each training example contains a question (Q1), yes/no answer (A), decomposition (D), and evidence paragraphs (E).
