Introduced by Matthew Dunn et al. in SearchQA: A New Q&A Dataset Augmented with Context from a Search Engine18 Apr 2017 archive 2025-07-28

SearchQA was built using an in-production, commercial search engine. It closely reflects the full pipeline of a (hypothetical) general question-answering system, which consists of information retrieval and answer synthesis.

13 shown of 13 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 133. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
