JSONSchemaBench is a benchmark of **real-world JSON schemas** designed to evaluate **structured output generation** for Large Language Models (LLMs). It contains approximately **10,000 JSON schemas**, capturing diverse constraints and complexities.

## 📌 Dataset Overview
- **Purpose:** Evaluate the **efficiency** and **coverage** of structured output generation.
- **Sources:** GitHub, Kubernetes, API specifications, curated collections.
- **Schemas:** Categorized based on complexity and domain.

### 📊 Dataset Breakdown

| Kubernetes      | Kubernetes API      | 1064  |
| Washington Post | Resource Access API | 125   |
| Github-Hard     | Misc                | 1240  |
| JSONSchemaStore | Misc                | 492   |
| Github-Ultra    | Misc                | 164   |
| **Total**       |                     | 9558  |

## 📥 Loading the Dataset

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("epfl-dlab/JSONSchemaBench")
print(dataset)
```

## 🔍 Data Structure
Each dataset split contains:
- `"json_schema"`: The schema definition.
- `"unique_id"`: A unique identifier for the schema.
