However, existing reading comprehension\ndatasets are mostly in English. To add diversity in reading comprehension\ndatasets, in this paper we propose a new Chinese reading comprehension dataset\nfor accelerating related research in the community. The proposed dataset\ncontains two different types: cloze-style reading comprehension and user query\nreading comprehension, associated with large-scale training data as well as\nhuman-annotated validation and hidden test set. Along with this dataset, we\nalso hosted the first Evaluation on Chinese Machine Reading Comprehension\n(CMRC-2017) and successfully attracted tens of participants, which suggest the\npotential impact of this dataset.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1709.08299v2","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1709.08299v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"dataset-for-the-first-evaluation-on-chinese","repo_url":"https://github.com/ymcui/cmrc2017","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":{"status":"unanswered"}}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"chinese-reading-comprehension","task_name":"Chinese Reading Comprehension"},{"task_slug":"diversity","task_name":"Diversity"},{"task_slug":"machine-reading-comprehension","task_name":"Machine Reading Comprehension"},{"task_slug":"reading-comprehension","task_name":"Reading Comprehension"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[{"slug":"cmrc-2017","name":"CMRC 2017","full_name":"Chinese Machine Reading Comprehension 2017"}],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=1709.08299","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
