# Dataset stats

Total dataset size are 136039 and splitted into train-test-validation via 7-2-1 ratio. The split are same as [alexa-qa-with-rank](https://huggingface.co./datasets/theblackcat102/alexa-qa-with-rank), so no train question in alexa-qa can be found in validation and test splits in alex-qa-with-rank.

Train : 95,227

Test : 27,208

Validation : 13,604

Do note that similar repharses of question does exist between splits and I will leave the study to others.
