# Dataset Card for "news_as2_pairs_and_triplets"

This dataset is a modified version of NewsAS2 from [lucadiliello/news_as2](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lucadiliello/news_as2) designed to train/pre-train "passage-retrieval" models.
The dataset is divided into two splits:
+ *pairs* split: Each instance in this split consists of a <u>question-(positive)answer pair</u>.
+ *triplets* split: Each instance in this split consists of a <u>question-(positive)answer-(hard-negative)answer triplet</u>.
