### Dataset Summary
Existing datasets for natural language inference (NLI) have propelled research on language understanding. We propose a new method for automatically deriving NLI datasets from the growing abundance of large-scale question answering datasets. Our approach hinges on learning a sentence transformation model which converts question-answer pairs into their declarative forms. Despite being primarily trained on a single QA dataset, we show that it can be successfully applied to a variety of other QA resources. Using this system, we automatically derive a new freely available dataset of over 500k NLI examples (QA-NLI), and show that it exhibits a wide range of inference phenomena rarely seen in previous NLI datasets.
This Question to Declarative Sentence (QA2D) Dataset contains 86k question-answer pairs and their manual transformation into declarative sentences. 95% of question answer pairs come from SQuAD (Rajkupar et al., 2016) and the remaining 5% come from four other question answering datasets.

## Dataset Structure
### Data Instances
See below.
### Data Fields
- `dataset`: lowercased name of dataset (movieqa, newsqa, qamr, race, squad)
- `example_uid`: unique id of example within dataset (there are examples with the same uids from different datasets, so the combination of dataset + example_uid should be used for unique indexing)
- `question`: tokenized (space-separated) question from the source QA dataset
- `answer`: tokenized (space-separated) answer span from the source QA dataset
- `turker_answer`: tokenized (space-separated) answer sentence collected from MTurk
- `rule-based`: tokenized (space-separated) answer sentence, generated by the rule-based model
### Data Splits
