This is subset of 'XNLI 2.0: Improving XNLI dataset and performance on Cross Lingual Understanding' with languages that were not part of the original XNLI plus three (verified) languages that are not strongly covered in MTEB
| Task category | t2t |
| Domains | Non-fiction, Fiction, Government, Written |
| Reference | https://arxiv.org/pdf/2301.06527 |
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(["XNLIV2"])
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 repitory.
Citation
If you use this dataset, please cite the dataset as well as mteb, as this dataset likely includes additional processing as a part of the MMTEB Contribution.
