Dataset Summary |
|
|
|
|
|
This is a cross-lingual knowledge base and question answering dataset for four low-resource South African languages: isiZulu, isiXhosa, Sepedi, and SeSotho. The dataset includes: |
|
|
|
|
|
1. Parallel text corpora for alignment |
|
|
2. Projected knowledge bases from ConceptNet and DBpedia |
|
|
3. Verbalized Triples |
|
|
4. Translated question-answer pairs |
|
|
|
|
|
The dataset was created using LeNS-Align, a novel cross-lingual mapping technique that combines lexical alignment, named entity recognition, and semantic alignment to project knowledge from English to low-resource languages. |
