Dataset Description:

This dataset contains paragraphs from various sources with the goal of identifying whether there is evidence supporting a specific claim within each paragraph. The dataset has been designed to aid in the development and training of machine learning models for the task of evidence-verification in textual data. Each paragraph is labeled with a binary classification: '0' for paragraphs without evidence for the claim, and '1' for paragraphs with evidence supporting the claim. Additionally, an 'extracted_evidence' column provides a summary of the evidence found within the paragraph.
