The LAMBADA dataset: Word prediction requiring a broad discourse context∗
https://arxiv.org/pdf/1606.06031.pdf

LAMBADA is a dataset to evaluate the capabilities of computational models for text
understanding by means of a word prediction task. LAMBADA is a collection of narrative
passages sharing the characteristic that human subjects are able to guess their last
word if they are exposed to the whole passage, but not if they only see the last
sentence preceding the target word. To succeed on LAMBADA, computational models
cannot simply rely on local context, but must be able to keep track of information
in the broader discourse.
