# RAG Query Transformation Dataset

## Description
This dataset contains synthetic query transformations generated to improve retrieval quality in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems.

Each original query is paired with four transformed variants:
- paraphrase
- broader
- technical
- explicit

## Source
- Base queries: MS MARCO
- Transformations: LLM-generated (Gemini Flash Lite)

## Size
- ~66k original queries
- ~264k total transformed queries

## Intended Use
- Query expansion
- Embedding-based retrieval
- Training lightweight models (e.g., VAE) for query transformation

## Limitations
- Synthetic data
- Some noise may be present
- Not intended for direct QA
