Update History

Update 191001

The competition has finished. We have uploaded all split sets of ChID! Feel free to use it in your research.

Update 190702

The file wordList.txt used in baselines (both for paper and for competition) has been uploaded.

Note that due to the potential differences in equipments and word segmentation tools, your segmentation results may not perfectly match with the vocabulary we provide. For the sake of performance, we suggest you do the segmentation and get the vocabulary list by yourself.

Competition

We are organizing a competition based on our ChID dataset, and here is the website. The adapted corpus establishes up connections between blanks, and adopts a new type of problem. A list of passages (not an isolated one) is provided and the answers need to be selected from a given set of candidate idioms with fixed length (for more details, please refer to the competition website).

The public data contains the training data (both the passages with blanks and the golden answers), the development data (only the passages, and the answers will be available later) and the corpus of idiom explanations.

The baselines of the competition are Attentive Reader and BERT.

The data and baseline codes for the competition will be uploaded later.

Update 190605
