LogistikaBench Dataset Structure 🚚
LogistikaBench is a specialized evaluation benchmark designed to test the domain knowledge and reasoning capabilities of AI models in logistics, transport, and supply chain management. The dataset contains 1,446 multiple-choice questions across supply chain domains:
- Material Handling
- Transport
- Warehousing
- Supply Chain Management
- Procurement
More than one right answer can be available. For instance, [0, 2] in the answer column means the first and the third answers are correct.
No questions or answers in this dataset were generated using AI (such as large language models). The questions are mostly based on the following open-access textbooks and other free sources:
- Caplice, C., & Ponce, E. (2023). MITx MicroMasters Program in SCM Key Concepts. MIT Center for Transportation & Logistics.
- Ivanov, D., Tsipoulanidis, A., & Schönberger, J. (2017). Global supply chain and operations management. A decision-oriented introduction to the creation of value. ( http://global-supply-chain-management.de/Slides)

Limitations & Potential Errors
All test items are derived strictly from curated, authentic source materials used in actual university-level examinations and assessments. Every question reflects pedagogical evaluations designed for real academic environments.
While rigorous curation was applied, human and structural limitations are inevitable:
Answers: Human error during transcription or answer key compilation means inaccuracies are possible and even likely.
Subject Categorization: Due to the human error or multidisciplinary nature of the domain with overlapping category.
Call for Community Improvement
To maintain dataset quality, we encourage the community, educators, and researchers to help identify and correct these flaws. You can contribute improvements in the following standard ways:
GitHub Pull Requests: Submit direct corrections for answer keys or categorization via official repository.
Dataset Discussions / Issues: Report ambiguous questions, potential answer errors, or classification misalignments on the Kaggle or Hugging Face community tabs.
