- Dataset uid: `xquad_ca`

### Description

Professional translation into Catalan of XQuAD dataset (https://github.com/deepmind/xquad).

XQuAD (Cross-lingual Question Answering Dataset) is a benchmark dataset for evaluating cross-lingual question answering performance. The dataset consists of a subset of 240 paragraphs and 1190 question-answer pairs from the development set of SQuAD v1.1 (Rajpurkar et al., 2016) together with their professional translations into ten languages: Spanish, German, Greek, Russian, Turkish, Arabic, Vietnamese, Thai, Chinese, and Hindi. Rumanian was added later. We added the 13th language to the corpus using also professional native catalan translators.

XQuAD and XQuAD-Ca datasets are released under CC-by-sa licence.
