# Multi-hop Question Answering on HotpotQA (Answer F1, Citation F1, Joint F1) Source: [Multi-hop Question Answering on HotpotQA (Answer F1, Citation F1, Joint F1)]() Collection index: [llms.txt]() Data updated: 2026-04-29T06:52:47.215Z Evaluation of model performance on the HotpotQA dataset for open-domain multi-hop question answering, specifically reporting Answer F1, Citation F1, and Joint F1 scores. A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage. | Scope | Recorded value | | --- | --- | | Task | Open-domain multi-hop question answering | | Dataset (including any stated split) | HotpotQA | | Metric | Answer F1 | | Unit | PERCENT | | Direction | Higher is better | | Results loaded | 12 of 12 | | Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark | Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol. ## Metrics - [Answer F1](): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT. - [Citation F1](): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT. - [Joint F1](): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT. ## Recorded results | Method | Answer F1 | Result date | Report paper | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | RAG-RL | 76.18 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | | RAG-RL | 75.67 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | | RAG-RL | 75.23 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | | RAG-RL | 74.76 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | | RAG-RL | 74.25 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | | RAG-RL | 68.87 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | | RAG-RL | 68.71 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | | Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct | 67.9 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | | RAG-RL | 66.19 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | | RAG-RL | 66.04 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | | RAG-RL | 65.25 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | | Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct | 60.65 | Not recorded | 68fa78c51e209131cea7a6d3 | ### RAG-RL Answer F1: 76.18.
