| Title: `Can a Suit of Armor Conduct Electricity? A New Dataset for Open Book Question Answering` | |
| Abstract: https://arxiv.org/abs/1809.02789 | |
| OpenBookQA is a question-answering dataset modeled after open book exams for | |
| assessing human understanding of a subject. It consists of 5,957 multiple-choice | |
| elementary-level science questions (4,957 train, 500 dev, 500 test), which probe | |
| the understanding of a small “book” of 1,326 core science facts and the application | |
| of these facts to novel situations. For training, the dataset includes a mapping | |
| from each question to the core science fact it was designed to probe. Answering | |
| OpenBookQA questions requires additional broad common knowledge, not contained | |
| in the book. The questions, by design, are answered incorrectly by both a retrieval- | |
| based algorithm and a word co-occurrence algorithm. | |

| ### Checklist | |
| For adding novel benchmarks/datasets to the library: | |
| * [ ] Is the task an existing benchmark in the literature? | |
| * [ ] Have you referenced the original paper that introduced the task? | |
| * [ ] If yes, does the original paper provide a reference implementation? If so, have you checked against the reference implementation and documented how to run such a test? | |
| If other tasks on this dataset are already supported: | |
| * [ ] Is the "Main" variant of this task clearly denoted? | |
| * [ ] Have you provided a short sentence in a README on what each new variant adds / evaluates? | |
| * [ ] Have you noted which, if any, published evaluation setups are matched by this variant? | |
