GLAN-QnA-KR: A Seedless Taxonomy-Driven Korean Instruction Corpus
On the map: Mixture-of-experts → MoE large language models
Abstract (arXiv)
We release GLAN-QnA-KR, a 303,581-row openly redistributable Korean instruction-QA corpus produced via the seedless taxonomy-driven GLAN synthesis pipeline with Microsoft's Phi-3.5-MoE-instruct as the producer model (generation: 2024-12; release: 2024-12; licence: OpenRAIL). The corpus spans a flat taxonomy of 1,084 English-labelled disciplines paired with Korean question/answer text, a 100-900 difficulty scale, and a median of 313 question characters and 1,098 answer characters per record. Two properties are atypical for synthetic instruction data at this scale: (i) exact duplicate questions number only 1 in 303,581 rows and character-trigram near-duplicate clusters at Jaccard >= 0.9 number zero in a 5,000-sample probe, and (ii) a two-layer contamination audit against KMMLU, KoBEST (five sub-tasks), and HAE-RAE-Bench shows a maximum test-vs-corpus question-level character-trigram Jaccard of 0.163 with zero test items at Jaccard >= 0.7, and a maximum multilingual-E5 cosine of 0.901 with a single test item at cosine >= 0.90 and zero at >= 0.95, across 20,000 sampled GLAN questions and seven evaluation sets. At the time of release, this is, to our knowledge, the largest single-pipeline synthetic Korean instruction corpus verifiable on the Hugging Face Hub and the only Korean >=100k-row corpus built under a seedless taxonomy-driven protocol. This note documents the generation protocol, corpus statistics, the contamination audit, and the licensing boundary in a form suitable for downstream citation.
