### Dataset Summary

Existing question answering datasets focus on dealing with homogeneous information, based either only on text or
KB/Table information alone. However, as human knowledge is distributed over heterogeneous forms,
using homogeneous information alone might lead to severe coverage problems.
To fill in the gap, we present HybridQA, a new large-scale question-answering dataset that
requires reasoning on heterogeneous information. Each question is aligned with a Wikipedia table
and multiple free-form corpora linked with the entities in the table. The questions are designed
to aggregate both tabular information and text information, i.e.,
lack of either form would render the question unanswerable.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

### Languages

The dataset is in English language.
