ELI5: Long Form Question Answering
Open accessAbstract
We introduce the first large-scale corpus for long-form question answering, a task requiring elaborate and in-depth answers to openended questions.The dataset comprises 270K threads from the Reddit forum "Explain Like I'm Five" (ELI5) where an online community provides answers to questions which are comprehensible by five year olds.Compared to existing datasets, ELI5 comprises diverse questions requiring multi-sentence answers.We provide a large set of web documents to help answer the question.Automatic and human evaluations show that an abstractive model trained with a multi-task objective outperforms conventional Seq2Seq, language modeling, as well as a strong extractive baseline.However, our best model is still far from human performance since raters prefer gold responses in over 86% of cases, leaving ample opportunity for future improvement.1

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.
