msmarco (Decontaminated)
A decontaminated version of the msmarco dataset from the BEIR benchmark, with samples found in the mgte-en pre-training dataset removed.
Decontamination methodology
Contamination was detected using a two-pass approach against the full mgte-en dataset (484 GB, 1,235 parquet files):
Pass 1: Exact hash matching
All texts (queries and corpus documents) were normalized (lowercased, unicode NFKD, whitespace collapsed) and hashed with xxHash-64. The same normalization + hashing was applied to every query and document field in mgte-en. Any sample whose hash appeared in mgte-en was flagged as contaminated.
Pass 2: 13-gram containment (GPT-3 style)
Following the methodology introduced in the GPT-3 paper (Brown et al., 2020), word-level 13-grams were extracted from all remaining samples. For each sample, containment was computed as:
containment = |ngrams_in_sample ∩ ngrams_in_mgte| / |ngrams_in_sample|
Samples with containment >= 0.5 were flagged as near-duplicates.
Qrels filtering
Relevance judgments (qrels) referencing any removed query or corpus document were also removed.
