JaqketRetrieval

An MTEB dataset

Massive Text Embedding Benchmark

JAQKET (JApanese Questions on Knowledge of EnTities) is a QA dataset that is created based on quiz questions.


Task category	t2t
Domains	Encyclopaedic, Non-fiction, Written
Reference	https://github.com/kumapo/JAQKET-dataset

How to evaluate on this task

You can evaluate an embedding model on this dataset using the following code:

import mteb

task = mteb.get_tasks(["JaqketRetrieval"])
evaluator = mteb.MTEB(task)

model = mteb.get_model(YOUR_MODEL)
evaluator.run(model)
