# watsonxDocsQA Dataset
## Overview
**watsonxDocsQA** is a new open-source dataset and benchmark contributed by IBM. The dataset is derived from enterprise product documentation and is designed specifically for end-to-end Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) evaluation. The dataset consists of two components:
- **Documents**: A corpus of 1,144 text and markdown files generated by crawling enterprise documentation ([main page - crawl March 2024](https://dataplatform.cloud.ibm.com/docs/content/wsj/getting-started/welcome-main.html)).
- **Benchmark**: A set of 75 question-answer (QA) pairs with gold document labels and answers. The QA pairs are crafted as follows:
- **25 questions**: Human-generated by two subject matter experts.
- **50 questions**: Synthetically generated using the `tiiuae/falcon-180b` model, then manually filtered and reviewed for quality. The methodology is detailed in [Yehudai et al. 2024](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2401.14367).

## Data Description
### Corpus Dataset
The corpus dataset contains the following fields:
| Field | Description |
|------------------|------------------------------------------|
| `doc_id` | Unique identifier for the document |
| `title` | Document title as it appears on the HTML page |
| `document` | Textual representation of the content |
| `md_document` | Markdown representation of the content |
| `url` | Origin URL of the document |
### Question-Answers Dataset
The QA dataset includes these fields:
| Field | Description |
|------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------|
| `question_id` | Unique identifier for the question |
| `question` | Text of the question |
| `correct_answer` | Ground-truth answer |
| `ground_truths_contexts_ids` | List of ground-truth document IDs |
| `ground_truths_contexts` | List of grounding texts on which the answer is based |
