Bharat-NanoBEIR: Indian Language Information Retrieval Dataset

Overview

This dataset is part of the Bharat-NanoBEIR collection, which provides information retrieval datasets for Indian languages. It is derived from the NanoBEIR project, which offers smaller versions of BEIR datasets containing 50 queries and up to 10K documents each.

Dataset Description

This particular dataset is the Nepali version of the NanoArguAna dataset, specifically adapted for information retrieval tasks. The translation and adaptation maintain the core structure of the original NanoBEIR while making it accessible for Nepali language processing.

Usage

This dataset is designed for:

Information Retrieval (IR) system development in Nepali
Evaluation of multilingual search capabilities
Cross-lingual information retrieval research
Benchmarking Nepali language models for search tasks

Dataset Structure

The dataset consists of three main components:

Corpus: Collection of documents in Nepali
Queries: Search queries in Nepali
QRels: Relevance judgments connecting queries to relevant documents
