Multisix Corpus

The Multisix corpus is a collection of 200 English questions with their answers retrieved manually from the Los Angeles Times corpus (year 1994). The 200 questions have been translated into five languages: Dutch, French, German, Italian and Spanish.

The corpus is in XML; each entry is structured in tags, with attributes and values defining the language, the type of question, the category of the answer (person, location, etc.), the answer, etc.

It constitutes a test set used for the cross-language tasks at CLEF QA-2003.
