11. Gap Analysis & Priorities¶

11.1 Dataset Availability by MTEB Category¶

MTEB Task	Available Count	Quality	Status	Priority
Classification	25+	High	✅ Excellent	Low
Pair Classification	5+	Medium	✅ Good	Low
Retrieval	7+	High	✅ Good	Low
Summarization	4+	Medium	✅ Good	Low
Instruction Following	2+	Emerging	🆕 Emerging	Medium
STS	3 limited	Low	⚠️ Limited	HIGH
Clustering	0	None	❌ Missing	CRITICAL
Reranking	0	None	❌ Missing	CRITICAL

11.2 Priority: Missing Datasets¶

Critical Gaps

The following MTEB task categories have no Indonesian datasets:

1. Clustering (0 datasets) - CRITICAL¶

Recommended Actions: - Translate reddit-clustering from MTEB - Translate stackexchange-clustering from MTEB - Create Indonesian social media clustering dataset - Create Indonesian news clustering dataset

2. Reranking (0 datasets) - CRITICAL¶

Recommended Actions: - Translate msmarco-reranking from MTEB - Create Indonesian search reranking dataset - Leverage existing IndoNLU datasets for reranking task conversion

3. STS (3 limited) - HIGH¶

Recommended Actions: - Translate stsbenchmark-sts from MTEB - Translate sickr-sts from MTEB - Create Indonesian STS with multiple domains - Target: 5,000+ sentence pairs with human-annotated scores

11.3 Data Sources for Translation¶

High-Priority MTEB Datasets to Translate:

Task	MTEB Dataset	Reason	Size
Clustering	`reddit-clustering`	Community structure	1M+ posts
Clustering	`stackexchange-clustering`	Question clustering	200K+
STS	`stsbenchmark-sts`	Gold standard STS	8,628 pairs
STS	`sickr-sts`	Image caption STS	4,500 pairs
Reranking	`msmarco-reranking`	Web search reranking	30K pairs
