构建包含10万条候选答案的可信赖度评分数据集,帮助模型区分似是而非的错误答案。

Wrong Answers Can Also Be Useful: PlausibleQA -- A Large-Scale QA Dataset with Answer Plausibility Scores

  • 为每条问题生成10个候选答案并标注可信度得分与理由
  • 包含90万条答案对之间的可信度对比说明,提升评估精度
  • 适用于多选题干扰项生成和模型鲁棒性测试,适合改进LLM答题能力

大型语言模型(LLMs)正重塑信息检索,聊天机器人成为回答用户问题的重要来源。由于设计上优先生成正确答案,高可信度但错误的答案(候选答案)的价值常被忽视。然而这类答案在多选题问答(MCQA)和问答鲁棒性评估(QARA)中仍具关键作用。现有数据集主要关注正确答案,未显式考虑候选答案的可信度,限制了模型的精细评估。为此,我们提出PlausibleQA,一个包含10,000个问题和100,000个候选答案的大规模数据集,每个答案均附带可信度评分及选择理由。此外,还包含900,000条候选答案间的两两对比理由,进一步细化可信度判断。通过人工评估与实证实验,我们验证了该数据集在MCQA和QARA中的实用性。结果表明,基于可信度的方法能有效生成多选题干扰项并用于鲁棒性分析。我们将PlausibleQA公开,以推动问答研究,提升LLM辨别可信干扰项的能力。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large Language Models (LLMs) are revolutionizing information retrieval, with chatbots becoming an important source for answering user queries. As by their design, LLMs prioritize generating correct answers, the value of highly plausible yet incorrect answers (candidate answers) tends to be overlooked. However, such answers can still prove useful, for example, they can play a crucial role in tasks like Multiple-Choice Question Answering (MCQA) and QA Robustness Assessment (QARA). Existing QA datasets primarily focus on correct answers without explicit consideration of the plausibility of other candidate answers, limiting opportunity for more nuanced evaluations of models. To address this gap, we introduce PlausibleQA, a large-scale dataset comprising 10,000 questions and 100,000 candidate answers, each annotated with plausibility scores and justifications for their selection. Additionally, the dataset includes 900,000 justifications for pairwise comparisons between candidate answers, further refining plausibility assessments. We evaluate PlausibleQA through human assessments and empirical experiments, demonstrating its utility in MCQA and QARA analysis. Our findings show that plausibility-aware approaches are effective for MCQA distractor generation and QARA. We release PlausibleQA as a resource for advancing QA research and enhancing LLM performance in distinguishing plausible distractors from correct answers.
