| lm-evaluation-harness | 0.4.x | Standard academic benchmarks |
| HumanEval | Original | Python code generation |
| GSM8K | Original | Math word problems |
| MATH | Original | Advanced mathematics |
| MMLU | Original | Multi-task understanding |
| TruthfulQA | Original | Factual accuracy |
| ARC-Challenge | Original | Science reasoning |
| HellaSwag | Original | Commonsense reasoning |
