### Dataset Summary

INDICXNLI is similar to existing
XNLI dataset in shape/form, but focusses on Indic language family. INDICXNLI include NLI
data for eleven major Indic languages that includes
Assamese (‘as’), Gujarat (‘gu’), Kannada (‘kn’),
Malayalam (‘ml’), Marathi (‘mr’), Odia (‘or’),
Punjabi (‘pa’), Tamil (‘ta’), Telugu (‘te’), Hindi
(‘hi’), and Bengali (‘bn’).

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

**Tasks:** Natural Language Inference

**Leaderboards:** Currently there is no Leaderboard for this dataset.

### Languages

- `Assamese (as)`
- `Bengali (bn)`
- `Gujarati (gu)`
- `Kannada (kn)`
- `Hindi (hi)`
- `Malayalam (ml)`
- `Marathi (mr)`
- `Oriya (or)`
- `Punjabi (pa)`
- `Tamil (ta)`
- `Telugu (te)`

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

One example from the `hi` dataset is given below in JSON format.

  ```python
 {'premise': 'अवधारणात्मक रूप से क्रीम स्किमिंग के दो बुनियादी आयाम हैं-उत्पाद और भूगोल।',
 'hypothesis': 'उत्पाद और भूगोल क्रीम स्किमिंग का काम करते हैं।',
 'label': 1 (neutral) }
  ```

### Data Fields

- `premise (string)`: Premise Sentence
- `hypothesis (string)`: Hypothesis Sentence
- `label (integer)`: Integer label `0` if hypothesis `entails` the premise, `2` if hypothesis `negates` the premise and `1` otherwise.

### Data Splits

Below is the dataset split given for `hi` dataset.

```python
DatasetDict({
    train: Dataset({
        features: ['premise', 'hypothesis', 'label'],
        num_rows: 392702
    })
    test: Dataset({
        features: ['premise', 'hypothesis', 'label'],
        num_rows: 5010
    })
    validation: Dataset({
        features: ['premise', 'hypothesis', 'label'],
        num_rows: 2490
    })
})

```

The dataset split remains same across all languages.

## Dataset usage

Code snippet for using the dataset using datasets library.

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("Divyanshu/indicxnli")
```

## Dataset Creation
Machine translation of XNLI english dataset to 11 listed Indic Languages.
