Dataset Card for TRACE-it Challenge @ CALAMITA 2024

TRACE-it (Testing Relative clAuses Comprehension through Entailment in ITalian) has been proposed as part of the CALAMITA Challenge, the special event dedicated to the evaluation of Large Language Models (LLMs) in Italian and co-located with the Tenth Italian Conference on Computational Linguistics (https://clic2024.ilc.cnr.it/calamita/).

The dataset focuses on evaluating LLM's understanding of a specific linguistic structure in Italian: object-extracted relative clauses (ORCs). The assessment involves a yes/no entailment task in which the model is given two sentences. The first contains the target structure, and the second is a simple declarative sentence whose meaning may or may not be inferred from the first, based on the syntactic relationship between the two noun phrases in the ORC.

Dataset Details

Dataset Description

The benchmark contains 566 pairs of sentences, where the first sentence includes the ORC and the second sentence is the declarative sentence which can be implied or not by the first. The ORCs have been primarily sourced from linguistic and psycholinguistic literature to explore the impact of grammatical and semantic features on the processing difficulties humans face when reading ORCs.

A smaller portion of the dataset includes ORCs from existing NLP benchmarks, which are specifically designed to test language models' capabilities in recognizing sentence acceptability.

Dataset Structure

The dataset is provided as a tab-separated text file with the following information for each entry:

  • UniqueID: a numerical identifier for the entry;
  • Source: the original reference from which sentence1 has been taken.
  • ID-mapping: an identifier mapping for cross-referencing according to the Condition;
  • Condition: The type of ORC occurring in Sentence1, based on the features of the two NPs involved (i.e. gender, number, animacy, distance) and, when appropriate, relative configuration (i.e. match, mismatch);
  • Sentence1: the first sentence containing the ORC;
  • Sentence2: the second sentence that may or may not be implied by sentence1;
  • NP Target: indicates whether Sentence2 targets the head of the relative clause (NP1) or the subject of the embedded clause (NP2).;
  • Gold: the gold label assigned to the pair ("sì" if sentence 1 implied sentence 2, "no" otherwise).
