Natural Language Query-Driven Recommendation Datasets

We provide three natural language query-driven recommendation datasets designed to evaluate systems under challenging conditions where

  1. user intent is implicitly expressed through broad or indirect queries

  2. items are described through multiple diverse textual sources.

Each dataset contains 100 natural language queries, ground truth relevance labels, and original corpus of items for reference.
