# GooAQ (Google Answers to Google Questions) question-answer pairs in Danish

## About

This dataset is a version of the [GooAQ question-answer pairs dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/sentence-transformers/embedding-training-data) machine-translated from English to Danish ([link to original dataset](https://github.com/allenai/gooaq)).

Machine translation is performed using the Helsinki NLP [English-to-Danish OPUS-MT model](https://huggingface.co/Helsinki-NLP/opus-mt-en-da).

The dataset contains ~3M question-answer pairs and can be used to train embedding and question-answer models. Each pair consists of one question ('query') and one passage containing the answer ('passage').

## Usage

Using the HuggingFace datasets library:

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("KennethTM/gooaq_pairs_danish")
```
