NanoMTEB-Korean

This dataset is a Nano-style retrieval dataset for HAKARI-bench.

NanoMTEB-Korean is a compact Korean retrieval benchmark containing MTEB(kor, v1) retrieval-family splits available in the Nano collection. It includes Korean biomedical, strategy QA, legal/government, MIRACL, and SQuAD-style retrieval tasks.

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

dataset_id = "hakari-bench/NanoMTEB-Korean"
split = "autorag"

queries = load_dataset(dataset_id, "queries", split=split)
corpus = load_dataset(dataset_id, "corpus", split=split)
qrels = load_dataset(dataset_id, "qrels", split=split)
reranking_candidates = load_dataset(dataset_id, "reranking_hybrid", split=split)

Data Layout

This dataset uses six Hugging Face Datasets configs:

• corpus: documents with _id and text
• queries: queries with _id and text
• qrels: positive relevance labels with query-id and corpus-id
• bm25: BM25 candidate lists with query-id and corpus-ids
• harrier_oss_v1_270m: dense candidate lists from microsoft/harrier-oss-v1-270m
• reranking_hybrid: RRF candidate lists built from bm25 and harrier_oss_v1_270m

Each config has the same Nano split names.

Candidate Construction

• bm25: local BM25 top-500 with automatic language-aware tokenization. The resolved tokenizer is shown in the Candidate Quality table, for example wordseg@ja.
• harrier_oss_v1_270m: dense top-500 from microsoft/harrier-oss-v1-270m. In tables this is shown as Dense; Dense means microsoft/harrier-oss-v1-270m with the web_search_query prompt for queries and cosine similarity over normalized embeddings.
• reranking_hybrid: RRF over bm25 and harrier_oss_v1_270m using rrf_k=100, keeping the RRF top-100.

Safeguard means rank 101 is appended only when RRF top-100 contains no qrels-positive document.

Split Statistics

Length statistics are character counts computed with len(str(text)).

Candidate Quality

nDCG@10 and Recall@100 are computed from the included candidate rankings against the included qrels, then reported as 0-100 scores such as 52.45. Recall@100 uses only the top 100 candidates; an optional rank-101 safeguard positive is not counted in Recall@100.

Dense means microsoft/harrier-oss-v1-270m with the web_search_query prompt and cosine similarity.
