📚 Translated LONG2RAG (MTEB-Style Retrieval Dataset)

Dataset Summary

This dataset is a translated version of the LONG2RAG benchmark (Qi et al., EMNLP Findings 2024), adapted into MTEB-style retrieval format for evaluating multilingual retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and long-context retrieval systems.

LONG2RAG was originally designed to evaluate how well large language models (LLMs) incorporate key points from retrieved long documents into long-form answers. It includes 280 complex, practical questions across 10 domains and 8 question categories, each paired with 5 retrieved documents (avg. length ~2,444 words).

This translated version preserves the structure but reformats it into query–document relevance pairs suitable for retrieval evaluation under the Massive Text Embedding Benchmark (MTEB).
