Dataset Card for beir/nfcorpus/train

The beir/nfcorpus/train dataset, provided by the ir-datasets package. For more information about the dataset, see the documentation.

Data

This dataset provides:

  • queries (i.e., topics); count=2,590

  • qrels: (relevance assessments); count=110,575

  • For docs, use irds/beir_nfcorpus

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

queries = load_dataset('irds/beir_nfcorpus_train', 'queries')
for record in queries:
    record # {'query_id': ..., 'text': ...}

qrels = load_dataset('irds/beir_nfcorpus_train', 'qrels')
for record in qrels:
    record # {'query_id': ..., 'doc_id': ..., 'relevance': ..., 'iteration': ...}

Note that calling load_dataset will download the dataset (or provide access instructions when it's not public) and make a copy of the data in 🤗 Dataset format.
