INDICXNLI is similar to existing XNLI dataset in shape/form, but focusses on Indic language family. The train (392,702), validation (2,490), and evaluation sets (5,010) of English XNLI were translated from English into each of the eleven Indic languages. IndicTrans is a large Transformer-based sequence to sequence model. It is trained on Samanantar dataset (Ramesh et al., 2021), which is the largest parallel multi- lingual corpus over eleven Indic languages.

How to evaluate on this task
You can evaluate an embedding model on this dataset using the following code:
import mteb
task = mteb.get_task("IndicXnliPairClassification")
evaluator = mteb.MTEB([task])
model = mteb.get_model(YOUR_MODEL)
evaluator.run(model)
To learn more about how to run models on mteb task check out the GitHub repository.
