TyDi QA is a question answering dataset covering 11 typologically diverse languages with 204K question-answer pairs. The languages of TyDi QA are diverse with regard to their typology -- the set of linguistic features that each language expresses -- such that we expect models performing well on this set to generalize across a large number of the languages in the world. It contains language phenomena that would not be found in English-only corpora. To provide a realistic information-seeking task and avoid priming effects, questions are written by people who want to know the answer, but don’t know the answer yet, (unlike SQuAD and its descendents) and the data is collected directly in each language without the use of translation (unlike MLQA and XQuAD).

Dataset Usage
Using datasets library
from datasets import load_dataset
dset = datasets.load_dataset("SEACrowd/tydiqa", trust_remote_code=True)
Using seacrowd library
# Load the dataset using the default config
dset = sc.load_dataset("tydiqa", schema="seacrowd")
# Check all available subsets (config names) of the dataset
print(sc.available_config_names("tydiqa"))
# Load the dataset using a specific config
dset = sc.load_dataset_by_config_name(config_name="<config_name>")
More details on how to load the seacrowd library can be found here.

We present TyDi QA{---}a question answering dataset covering 11 typologically diverse languages with 204K
