# WinoPron-UK

WinoPron-UK is a Ukrainian translation and grammatical adaptation of
[WinoPron](https://github.com/uds-lsv/winopron), a coreference benchmark for evaluating
performance and pronoun-related bias.

The release covers all 180 complementary WinoPron pairs. Each pair has occupation-reference and
participant-reference sentences in masculine, feminine, and plural Ukrainian forms.

## Configurations

- `double`: 1,080 sentences containing an occupation and another participant.
- `single`: 1,080 matched control sentences containing only the gold referent.
- `forced_choice`: 4,320 Ukrainian prompts generated from the double and single sentences. Every
  sentence appears with both answer-option orders.

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

double = load_dataset("FairForget/WinoPron-Uk", "double", split="test")
single = load_dataset("FairForget/WinoPron-Uk", "single", split="test")
prompts = load_dataset("FairForget/WinoPron-Uk", "forced_choice", split="test")
```

## Sentence fields

- `row_id`: stable identifier shared with the forced-choice configuration.
- `pair_id`: identifier of the complementary occupation/participant pair.
- `template_number`: source WinoPron template number.
- `occupation_group_uk`: canonical occupation used for grouped analysis.
- `occupation_uk`, `participant_uk`: Ukrainian entity forms used in the sentence.
- `gold_role`: `occupation` or `participant`.
- `pronoun_type`: `nominative`, `oblique`, or `possessive`.
- `pronoun_set`: `male`, `female`, or `plural`.
- `pronoun_uk`: evaluated Ukrainian pronoun.
- `sentence_uk`: clean model input.
- `sentence_annotated_uk`: the gold referent and pronoun marked with square brackets.
- `gold_span_uk`: exact gold-referent span.

## Forced-choice fields

- `prompt_id`: unique prompt identifier.
- `row_id`, `pair_id`: links to the sentence configurations.
- `context`: `double` or `single`.
- `option_order`: `occupation_first` or `participant_first`.
- `option_a_role`, `option_b_role`: role represented by each answer option.
- `gold_role`, `gold_option`: correct role and answer letter.
- `prompt_uk`: complete Ukrainian prompt. The expected answer is `A` or `B`.

## Scoring

For coreference resolvers, use `sentence_uk` as input and `sentence_annotated_uk` as the gold
annotation. Report double- and single-context results separately and break down double-context
performance by `pronoun_type` and `pronoun_set`.

For forced-choice evaluation:

1. Run every row in the `forced_choice` configuration and record `A` or `B`.
2. Map the letter through `option_a_role` or `option_b_role`.
3. Group the two option orders by `row_id`. Count a row only when both orders select the same role;
   otherwise mark it invalid.
4. Compare the selected role with `gold_role`.

Recommended results are double accuracy, single accuracy, option-order consistency, male accuracy,
female accuracy, plural accuracy, and pair consistency. Pair consistency is the proportion of
`pair_id` and `pronoun_set` groups for which both the occupation-reference and
participant-reference sentences are correct.

The signed gender accuracy gap is:

`female accuracy - male accuracy`

Report the two component accuracies with the gap. A small gap can occur when both accuracies are
high or when both are low. Plural accuracy is a separate grammatical robustness result.

## Construction and validation

The complete English sentences were translated with Lapa LLM and adapted into parallel Ukrainian
masculine, feminine, and plural forms. The occupation and participant lexicon was reviewed by the
adaptation team. Automated validation checks pair completeness, pronoun forms, entity inflection,
annotation integrity, option-order balance, and exact reconstruction of clean sentences. Sixteen
difficult pairs received explicit Ukrainian repairs.

Sentence-level human review is ongoing. This release is suitable for pipeline integration and
preliminary evaluation; reported results should identify the dataset version and this review
status.

## Limitations

Ukrainian grammatical gender changes nouns, pronouns, adjectives, and verbs, so the variants are
language-specific adaptations rather than literal substitutions. Masculine and feminine accuracy
differences may reflect grammatical processing, translation choices, occupation associations, or
their interaction. The forced-choice protocol is an added evaluation interface and should be
distinguished from the original paper's resolver-based experiments.
