Overview

WinoGrande is a collection of 44k problems inspired by the Winograd Schema Challenge. Formulated as a fill-in-a-blank task with binary options, the goal is to choose the right option for a given sentence which requires commonsense reasoning.

Usage

First, install the inspect_ai and inspect_evals Python packages with:

pip install inspect_ai
pip install git+https://github.com/UKGovernmentBEIS/inspect_evals

Then, evaluate against one more models with:

inspect eval inspect_evals/winogrande --model openai/gpt-4o

If you don’t want to specify the --model each time you run an evaluation, create a .env configuration file in your working directory that defines the INSPECT_EVAL_MODEL environment variable along with your API key. For example:

INSPECT_EVAL_MODEL=anthropic/claude-3-5-sonnet-20240620
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=<anthropic-api-key>

Options

You can control a variety of options from the command line. For example:

inspect eval inspect_evals/winogrande --limit 10
inspect eval inspect_evals/winogrande --max-connections 10
inspect eval inspect_evals/winogrande --temperature 0.5

See inspect eval --help for all available options.

Dataset

Here is an example from the dataset:

Sentence: He never comes to my home, but I always go to his house because the [BLANK] is smaller.

Options: home, house

The model is tasked to fill the [BLANK] with either of the two options.

Evaluation

A simple accuracy is calculated over the datapoints.
