- Abstract
42
- Question Answering (QA) returns concise answers or answer lists from natural language text given a context document. To advance robust models' development, large amounts of resources go into curating QA datasets. There is a surge of QA datasets for languages like English, however, this is not the case for Amharic. Amharic, the official language of Ethiopia, is the second most spoken Semitic language in the world. There is no published or publicly available Amharic QA dataset. Hence, to foster the research in Amharic QA, we present the first Amharic QA (AmQA) dataset. We crowdsourced 2628 question-answer pairs over 378 Wikipedia articles. Additionally, we run an XLMRLarge-based baseline model to spark open- domain QA research interest. The best-performing baseline achieves an F-score of 69.58 and 71.74 in reader-retriever QA and reading comprehension settings respectively.

  In Amharic, interrogative sentences can be formulated using information-seeking pronouns like “ምን” (what), “መቼ” (when), “ማን” (who), “የት” (where), “የትኛው” (which), etc. and prepositional interrogative phrases like “ለምን” [ለ-ምን] (why), “በምን” [በ-ምን] (by what), etc. Besides, a verb phrase could be used to pose questions (Getahun 2013; Baye 2009). As shown bellow, the AmQA dataset contains context, question, and answer triplets. The contexts are articles collected from Amharic Wikipedia dump file. The question-answer pairs are created by crowdsourcing and annotated using the Haystack QA annotation tool. 2628 question and answer pairs are created from 378 documents. The whole AmQA dataset can be found here. We also split the datset into train, dev, and test with a size of 1728, 600, and 300 respectively.
