Text-only ScienceQA for sequential unlearning

This private dataset contains every image-free example from derek-thomas/ScienceQA at immutable revision f18b0a70359ebfb41f658fd564208d0355b013f4. The filter is exactly image is null, matching the ScienceQA preprocessing released with On Large Language Model Continual Unlearning. Original train, validation, and test membership is preserved.

No deletion labels or fixed deletion plan are stored. The paper's reference sequence is biology -> physics -> chemistry -> economics; consumers should filter the lowercase topic column at runtime.

Schema

id: deterministic content-derived ID. The Hugging Face source omits the original ScienceQA PID.
question, choices, answer, topic, subject, hint: normalized source fields.
input: context (when present), question, and lettered options; never the answer.
target: The answer is <LETTER>.
source_index: row index in the unfiltered upstream split.

Explanations (lecture and solution) and images are deliberately excluded.
