Multicultural intent-classification dataset covering banking, home, kitchen & dining, travel and utility. 3 200 utterances per African language (2 240 / 320 / 640 train/dev/test) + 1 779 English. From ‘INJONGO: A Multicultural Intent Detection and Slot-filling Dataset for 16 African Languages’ (Yu et al., 2025).

- [masakhane/InjongoIntent](https://huggingface.co/datasets/masakhane/InjongoIntent)
## Dataset Preparation in MTEB
This repository is a staging copy of `masakhane/InjongoIntent` for MTEB. The intended long-term canonical benchmark copy is `mteb/InjongoIntent`.
### Transformations
- Harmonized text columns across configs: `text` / `utterance` / `sentence` -> `text`
- Harmonized label columns across configs: `label` / `intent` / `labels` -> `label`
- Preserved the MTEB-facing subset names, including `gaz` and `swh`, while sourcing from the original Hub configs
- Applied dataset cleaning before upload to reduce duplicates and train-test leakage in the benchmark copy
### Label Schema
- Integer intent labels from the source dataset are preserved after harmonization
### Splits and subsets
- 17 language-specific configs with cleaned train/dev-or-validation/test style splits
- Language coverage matches the benchmark task: 16 African languages plus English
## How to evaluate on this task
You can evaluate an embedding model on this dataset using the following code:
```python
import mteb
task = mteb.get_task("InjongoIntent")
evaluator = mteb.MTEB([task])
model = mteb.get_model(YOUR_MODEL)
evaluator.run(model)
```
<!-- Datasets want link to arxiv in readme to autolink dataset with paper -->

## Citation
If you use this dataset, please cite the dataset as well as [mteb](https://github.com/embeddings-benchmark/mteb), as this dataset likely includes additional processing as a part of the [MMTEB Contribution](https://github.com/embeddings-benchmark/mteb/tree/main/docs/mmteb).
