### Dataset Summary

Copy and merge of [this MGSM Dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/juletxara/mgsm), [Catalan version](https://huggingface.co/datasets/projecte-aina/mgsm_ca), [Basque version](https://huggingface.co/datasets/HiTZ/MGSM-eu), [Galician version](https://huggingface.co/datasets/proxectonos/mgsm_gl), but in training samples we removed the prompt formatting, e.g. removed `Question: ...` in question field or `Answer: ...` in answer field.
Multilingual Grade School Math Benchmark (MGSM) is a benchmark of grade-school math problems, proposed in the paper [Language models are multilingual chain-of-thought reasoners](http://arxiv.org/abs/2210.03057).

The same 250 problems from [GSM8K](https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.14168) are each translated via human annotators in 10 languages. The 10 languages are:
- Spanish
- French
- German
- Russian
- Chinese
- Japanese
- Thai
- Swahili
- Bengali
- Telugu
- Catalan
- Basque
- Galician

GSM8K (Grade School Math 8K) is a dataset of 8.5K high quality linguistically diverse grade school math word problems. The dataset was created to support the task of question answering on basic mathematical problems that require multi-step reasoning.

You can find the input and targets for each of the ten languages (and English) as `.tsv` files.
We also include few-shot exemplars that are also manually translated from each language in `exemplars.py`.

- Spanish
- French
- German
- Russian

- Japanese

- Swahili

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

Each instance in the train split contains:
- a string for the grade-school level math question
- a string for the corresponding answer with chain-of-thought steps.
- the numeric solution to the question
- the equation solution to the question

```python
{'question': 'Question: Roger has 5 tennis balls. He buys 2 more cans of tennis balls. Each can has 3 tennis balls. How many tennis balls does he have now?',
 'answer': 'Step-by-Step Answer: Roger started with 5 balls. 2 cans of 3 tennis balls each is 6 tennis balls. 5 + 6 = 11. The answer is 11.',
 'answer_number': 11,
 'equation_solution': '5 + 6 = 11.'}
```

Each instance in the test split contains:
- a string for the grade-school level math question
- the numeric solution to the question

```python
{'question': "Janet’s ducks lay 16 eggs per day. She eats three for breakfast every morning and bakes muffins for her friends every day with four. She sells the remainder at the farmers' market daily for $2 per fresh duck egg. How much in dollars does she make every day at the farmers' market?",
 'answer': None,
 'answer_number': 18,
 'equation_solution': None}
```

### Data Fields

The data fields are the same among `train` and `test` splits.

- question: The question string to a grade school math problem.

- answer: The full solution string to the `question`. It contains multiple steps of reasoning with calculator annotations and the final numeric solution.

- answer_number: The numeric solution to the `question`.

- equation_solution: The equation solution to the `question`.

### Data Splits

- The train split includes 8 few-shot exemplars that are also manually translated from each language.
- The test split includes the same 250 problems from GSM8K translated via human annotators in 10 languages.

## Dataset Creation

### Curation Rationale

[Needs More Information]

### Source Data

#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization

From the paper:

> We initially collected a starting set of a thousand problems and natural language solutions by hiring freelance contractors on Upwork (upwork.com). We then worked with Surge AI (surgehq.ai), an NLP data labeling platform, to scale up our data collection. After collecting the full dataset, we asked workers to re-solve all problems, with no workers re-solving problems they originally wrote. We checked whether their final answers agreed with the original solu- tions, and any problems that produced disagreements were either repaired or discarded. We then performed another round of agreement checks on a smaller subset of problems, finding that 1.7% of problems still produce disagreements among contractors. We estimate this to be the fraction of problems that con- tain breaking errors or ambiguities. It is possible that a larger percentage of problems contain subtle errors.
