Evaluation of model performance on the HotpotQA dataset for multi-hop question answering, reporting scores across specific data subset sizes (7k, 14k, ..., 896k) and an overall average.

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 | Multi-hop Question Answering |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | HotpotQA |
| Metric | Score (7k) |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 8 of 8 |
| 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.
