Provides curated few-shot chain-of-thought (CoT) exemplars for 23 hard reasoning tasks, enabling models to learn structured step-by-step problem decomposition through in-context learning. Each task includes 3-5 hand-crafted examples showing intermediate reasoning steps, allowing models to adopt explicit reasoning patterns without fine-tuning. The dataset leverages prompt engineering patterns where models observe reasoning trajectories before solving novel instances.
Unique: Curated subset specifically filtered to tasks where models initially underperformed humans (below 50th percentile), creating a hard-mode benchmark rather than a balanced difficulty distribution. This selection strategy focuses evaluation on frontier model improvements rather than general capability assessment.
vs alternatives: Harder and more reasoning-focused than general benchmarks like MMLU or HellaSwag; includes explicit CoT examples unlike raw BIG-Bench, making it more suitable for prompt engineering evaluation than raw task suites.
Organizes 23 tasks across distinct reasoning domains (algorithmic, arithmetic, logical, causal, spatial) with consistent evaluation structure, enabling fine-grained analysis of model strengths and weaknesses by reasoning type. Each task is independently evaluable with its own test set and metrics, allowing researchers to identify which reasoning modalities their models excel or fail at. The stratification enables targeted model development and capability analysis.
Unique: Explicitly stratifies tasks by reasoning modality (algorithmic, arithmetic, logical, causal, spatial) rather than treating all hard tasks as monolithic, enabling domain-specific capability assessment. This structure allows researchers to correlate model architecture choices with specific reasoning strengths.
vs alternatives: More analytically useful than generic hard task collections because stratification enables root-cause analysis of reasoning failures; more focused than full BIG-Bench which lacks explicit domain organization.
Designed specifically to evaluate frontier language models (GPT-4, Claude, Llama 2+, etc.) on hard reasoning tasks where initial model performance was below human level, enabling measurement of model improvement over time and comparison of frontier model capabilities. The dataset enables researchers to track whether new model releases improve on hard reasoning and to identify reasoning capabilities that remain unsolved. Results are directly comparable across models because of standardized evaluation infrastructure.

Provides a standardized evaluation framework for code generation models that accepts generated code in 17 programming languages (C, C++, C#, Java, Kotlin, Go, Rust, Python, Ruby, PHP, JavaScript, Perl, Haskell, OCaml, Scala, D, Pascal) and validates correctness through actual execution against unit tests via the ExecEval Docker-based execution engine. Uses a centralized problem definition model with src_uid foreign keys linking generated code to shared problem descriptions and unittest_db.json, enabling consistent evaluation across language variants of the same problem.
Unique: Combines 25M training examples across 7,500 unique problems with an execution-based evaluation pipeline (ExecEval) that actually runs generated code in Docker containers against unit tests, rather than relying on static analysis or string matching. The src_uid linking system creates a normalized data model where problem descriptions and tests are stored once and referenced by all language variants, eliminating duplication and ensuring consistency.
vs alternatives: Larger scale (25M examples vs typical 10-100K) and true execution-based validation across more languages (17 vs 4-6) than HumanEval or CodeXGLUE, with explicit support for code translation and repair tasks beyond generation.
Implements a foreign key linking system where all task-specific datasets (program synthesis, code translation, APR, retrieval) reference shared problem definitions via src_uid identifiers. Problem descriptions and unit tests are stored once in centralized problem_descriptions.jsonl and unittest_db.json files, then linked by src_uid to avoid duplication. The Hugging Face datasets API automatically resolves these links during data loading, returning enriched DatasetDict objects with problem context pre-joined to task examples.
Unique: Uses a normalized relational data model (src_uid as foreign key) for a code benchmark, treating problem definitions as a separate entity layer rather than embedding them in each task dataset. This is more sophisticated than typical flat-file benchmark structures and enables consistent multi-task evaluation on identical problems.
xCodeEval scores higher at 67/100 vs BIG-Bench Hard (BBH) at 61/100.

Evaluates code generation models on the program synthesis task by accepting natural language problem descriptions and generating code solutions in any of 17 languages. The evaluation pipeline (Phase 1: Generation, Phase 2: Execution, Phase 3: Metrics) runs generated code against unit tests via ExecEval, computing pass@k metrics (pass@1, pass@10, etc.) that measure the probability of finding a correct solution within k samples. Supports both single-solution and multi-sample evaluation modes for assessing model reliability.
Unique: Implements a three-phase evaluation pipeline (Generation → Execution → Metrics) with explicit pass@k computation that measures the probability of finding a correct solution within k attempts, rather than just binary pass/fail.
