+ # M4-RAG: A Massive-Scale Multilingual Multi-Cultural Multimodal RAG
71
+
72
+ [**Paper**](https://huggingface.co/papers/2512.05959) | [**Code**](https://github.com/davidanugraha/M4-RAG)
73
+
74
+ M4-RAG is a massive-scale benchmark spanning 42 languages, 56 regional dialects and registers, and 189 countries, comprising over 80,000 culturally diverse image-question pairs for evaluating retrieval-augmented Visual Question Answering (VQA) across languages and modalities.
75
+
76
+ This repository specifically contains the **Wikipedia Retrieval Corpus**, a controlled retrieval environment containing millions of carefully curated multilingual documents relevant to the query domains.
77
+
78
+ ## Dataset Structure
79
+
80
+ The dataset consists of two configurations:
81
+ - `cvqa`: Wikipedia articles relevant to the Culturally-Aware Visual Question Answering domain.
82
+ - `worldcuisines`: Wikipedia articles relevant to the food-related visual question answering domain.
83
+
84
+ ## Sample Usage
85
+
86
+ You can load the retrieval corpus using the Hugging Face `datasets` library:
87
+
88
+ ```python
89
+ from datasets import load_dataset
90
+
91
+ # Load the CVQA Wikipedia retrieval corpus
92
+ cvqa_corpus = load_dataset("davidanugraha/M4-RAG", "cvqa", split="train")
93
+
94
+ # Load the WorldCuisines Wikipedia retrieval corpus
95
+ worldcuisines_corpus = load_dataset("davidanugraha/M4-RAG", "worldcuisines", split="train")
96
+ ```
97
