A repository with information about Reykjavik University Question-Answering Dataset (RUQuAD).
The first version of RUQuAD (RUQuAD 22.02) was collected in 2021-2022 by about 1,000 crowd-workers who used the GameQA mobile app platform to generate about 23,000 questions of which about 20,800 passed a double peer review. For these 20,800 verified questions, the crowd-workers annotated about 12,700 answers, sourced from five sources in four separate domains: The Icelandic Wikipedia, The Icelandic Web of Science, the news websites mbl.is and visir.is, and The Icelandic Government Information website.
