Source TextTarget Text\text{Source Text} \to \text{Target Text} Format

The Source TextTarget Text\text{Source Text} \to \text{Target Text} format is a standard structure used to frame natural language processing tasks. In this format, an arrow (\to) separates the input from the expected output. The source text serves as the input to the system, containing a task instruction or description alongside the specific input data. The target text is the desired response generated for that input task. For example, a machine translation task, such as converting Chinese to English, can be framed using this consistent structure.
