| # FinQA Dataset (Processed) |
|
|
| ## Dataset Description |
|
|
| ### Dataset Summary |
| The FinQA dataset is designed for numerical reasoning over financial data, containing questions that require complex reasoning over tables and text from financial reports. |
|
|
| ### Dataset Statistics |
| - Total examples: 8281 |
| - Training set size: 6624 examples |
| - Test set size: 1657 examples |
|
|
| ### Dataset Structure |
| Each example contains: |
| - Required columns: |
| - query: The question to be answered (derived directly from qa.question) |
| - context: Combined context including pre-text, table, and post-text, formatted with random section headers and separators for variety |
| - output: The execution answer (derived from qa.exe_ans) |
| - Original FinQA fields: |
| - id: Unique example identifier |
| - pre_text: Text appearing before the table |
| - post_text: Text appearing after the table |
| - table: Tabular data in string format |
| - program: The reasoning program to derive the answer |
| - exe_ans: The execution result |
|
|
| ### Context Formation |
| The context field is created by concatenating: |
| 1. Pre-text with a randomly selected header (e.g., "Background:", "Context:", "Pre-text:") |
| 2. Table data with a randomly selected header (e.g., "Data Table:", "Tabular Data:", "Table:") |
| 3. Post-text with a randomly selected header (e.g., "Additional Information:", "Follow-up:", "Post-table:") |
|
|
| These sections are joined using random separators (##, |
|
|
| , or --) to create variety. |
