L-CiteEval is a multi-task long-context understanding with citation benchmark, covering 5 task categories, including single-document question answering, multi-document question answering, summarization, dialogue understanding, and synthetic tasks, encompassing 11 different long-context tasks. The context lengths for these tasks range from 8K to 48K.

from datasets import load_dataset
datasets = ["narrativeqa", "natural_questions", "hotpotqa", "2wikimultihopqa", "goc_report", "multi_news", "qmsum", "locomo", "dialsim", "counting_stars", "niah"]
for dataset in datasets:
### Load L-CiteEval
data = load_dataset('Jonaszky123/L-CiteEval', f"L-CiteEval-Data_{dataset}")
### Load L-CiteEval-Length
data = load_dataset('Jonaszky123/L-CiteEval', f"L-CiteEval-Length_{dataset}")
### Load L-CiteEval-Hardness
data = load_dataset('Jonaszky123/L-CiteEval', f"L-CiteEval-Hardness_{dataset}")
All data in L-CiteEval follows the format below:
{
"id": "The identifier for the data entry",
"question": "The task question, such as for single-document QA. In summarization tasks, this may be omitted",
"answer": "The correct or expected answer to the question, used for evaluating correctness",
"docs": "Context divided into fixed-length chunks"
"length": "The context length"
