2. MEDMCQA [2]
3. BioASQ (2022) [3] [4]
4. HEADQA [5]
5. ProcessBank [6]
6. PubmedQA [7]
7. MMLU (subset of datasets focussing on clinical and medical knowledge) [8]
8. BioMRC (Tiny A and B) [9]
9. Fellowship of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists (FRCOphth) Exams [10]
10. QA4MRE (Alzheimer's Questions) [11]
11. MedicationInfo [12]
12. MedQuad [13]
13. LiveQA dataset (Ranked version of answers used to evaluate MedQuad) [13] [14]
14. MashQA [15]
15. MEDIQA-ANS [16]
The HEADQA dataset was last modified on September 27th, 2023.
