WikiWhy: Answering and Explaining Cause-and-Effect Questions

This paper was accepted as a Top 5% paper with Oral Presentation to the International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR 2023) in Kigali, Rwanda.

WikiWhy is a QA dataset built around a novel auxiliary task: explaining why an answer is true in natural language. WikiWhy contains over 9,000 “why” question-answer-rationale triples, grounded on Wikipedia facts across a diverse set of topics. Each rationale is a set of supporting statements connecting the question to the answer.
