MovieQA
The MovieQA dataset is a dataset for movie question answering. to evaluate automatic story comprehension from both video and text. The data set consists of almost 15,000 multiple choice question answers obtained from over 400 movies and features high semantic diversity. Each question comes with a set of five highly plausible answers; only one of which is correct. The questions can be answered using multiple sources of information: movie clips, plots, subtitles, and for a subset scripts and DVS.
