It also made it illegal to fire or demote government officials for political reasons and prohibited soliciting campaign donations on Federal government property . To enforce the merit system and the judicial system , the law also created the United States Civil Service Commission . This board would be in charge of determining the rules and regulations of the act . The Act also allowed for the president , by executive order to decide which positions could be subject to the act and which would not . A crucial result was the shift of the parties to reliance on funding from business , since they could no longer depend on patronage hopefuls . | [

Glickman may have added the nicknames of then - contemporary baseball players like Dizzy and Daffy Dean to set up the routine 's premise . This version , with extensive wordplay based on the fact that most of the fictional baseball team 's players had '' strange nicknames '' that seemed to be questions , became known as '' Who 's on First ?

Natural Questions Open Dataset with Gold Documents
This dataset is a curated version of the Natural Questions open dataset, with the inclusion of the gold documents from the original Natural Questions (NQ) dataset. The main difference with the NQ-open dataset is that some entries were excluded, as their respective gold documents exceeded 512 tokens in length. This is due to the pre-processing of the gold documents, as detailed in this related dataset.
The dataset is designed to facilitate research in question-answering systems, especially focusing on integrating gold documents for training and testing purposes.
Dataset Sources
The Natural Questions (NQ) dataset is a large-scale collection of real-world queries derived from Google search data. Each entry in the dataset consists of a user query and the corresponding Wikipedia page containing the answer.
The NQ-open dataset, a subset of the NQ dataset, differs by removing the restriction of linking answers to specific Wikipedia passages, thereby mimicking a more general information retrieval scenario similar to web searches.
This version of the NQ-open dataset was used in the paper The Power of Noise: Redefining Retrieval for RAG Systems.
Dataset Structure
A sample in the dataset has the following format:
{
'example_id' (int64): an identifier for the question, consistent with the original NQ dataset,
'question' (str): a question, that is identical to the question in the original NQ,
'answers' (List[str]): the list of correct answers in the original NQ,
'text' (str): gold document, associated with the question, in the original NQ,
'idx_gold_in_corpus' (int64): index of the gold document in the full corpus.
}
Ex.
{
'example_id': -3440030035760311385,
'question': 'who owned the millennium falcon before han solo',
'answers': [Lando Calrissian],

abstract = { We present the Natural Questions corpus, a question answering data set. Questions consist of real anonymized, aggregated queries issued to the Google search engine. An annotator is presented with a question along with a Wikipedia page from the top 5 search results, and annotates a long answer (typically a paragraph) and a short answer (one or more entities) if present on the page, or marks null if no long/short answer is present. The public release consists of 307,373 training examples with single annotations; 7,830 examples with 5-way annotations for development data; and a further 7,842 examples with 5-way annotated sequestered as test data. We present experiments validating quality of the data. We also describe analysis of 25-way annotations on 302 examples, giving insights into human variability on the annotation task. We introduce robust metrics for the purposes of evaluating question answering systems; demonstrate high human upper bounds on these metrics; and establish baseline results using competitive methods drawn from related literature. }

abstract = "Recent work on open domain question answering (QA) assumes strong supervision of the supporting evidence and/or assumes a blackbox information retrieval (IR) system to retrieve evidence candidates. We argue that both are suboptimal, since gold evidence is not always available, and QA is fundamentally different from IR. We show for the first time that it is possible to jointly learn the retriever and reader from question-answer string pairs and without any IR system. In this setting, evidence retrieval from all of Wikipedia is treated as a latent variable. Since this is impractical to learn from scratch, we pre-train the retriever with an Inverse Cloze Task. We evaluate on open versions of five QA datasets. On datasets where the questioner already knows the answer, a traditional IR system such as BM25 is sufficient. On datasets where a user is genuinely seeking an answer, we show that learned retrieval is crucial, outperforming BM25 by up to 19 points in exact match.",
