| **Text2DistBench** is a benchmark for evaluating whether large language models can infer distributional knowledge from natural language evidence. |
| Given metadata and a set of user comments about an entity (e.g., a movie or song), models must estimate statistics such as: |
| stance distribution, topic distribution, and most/second-most frequent labels. |
|
|
| The dataset is constructed from movie and music entities released between 2025-12-01 and 2026-03-01. |
|
|
| It includes two types of configurations: |
|
|
| **Posterior configurations** include both metadata and user comments as evidence. |
| These configurations differ by sample size (50 or 100 comments) and task type: |
| `posterior_sampled_50_estimation`, |
| `posterior_sampled_50_most_freq`, |
| `posterior_sampled_50_second_freq`, |
| `posterior_sampled_100_estimation`, |
| `posterior_sampled_100_most_freq`, |
| `posterior_sampled_100_second_freq` |
|
|
| **Prior configurations** contain only metadata without comments: |
| `prior_estimation`, |
| `prior_most_freq`, |
| `prior_second_freq` |
