TriviaQA: A Large Scale Distantly Supervised Challenge Dataset for Reading Comprehension
Open accessAbstract
We present TriviaQA, a challenging reading comprehension dataset containing over 650K question-answer-evidence triples.TriviaQA includes 95K questionanswer pairs authored by trivia enthusiasts and independently gathered evidence documents, six per question on average, that provide high quality distant supervision for answering the questions.We show that, in comparison to other recently introduced large-scale datasets, TriviaQA (1) has relatively complex, compositional questions, (2) has considerable syntactic and lexical variability between questions and corresponding answer-evidence sentences, and (3) requires more cross sentence reasoning to find answers.We also present two baseline algorithms: a featurebased classifier and a state-of-the-art neural network, that performs well on SQuAD reading comprehension.Neither approach comes close to human performance (23% and 40% vs. 80%), suggesting that Trivi-aQA is a challenging testbed that is worth significant future study. 1

“While past benchmarks have measured the ability to retrieve information (Joshi et al., 2017;Yang et al., 2018;Thorne et al., 2018;Dinan et al., 2019;Fan et al., 2019;Mialon et al., 2023), most of these benchmarks focus on retrieving information that can be found easily, and hence have become saturated by recent language models.”

“One reason to focus on imitative falsehoods is that they are less likely to be covered by existing question-answering benchmarks (Clark et al., 2018; Kwiatkowski et al., 2019; Joshi et al., 2017; Hendrycks et al., 2020).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
