| # BalkanBench SuperGLUE - Croatian |
|
|
| > **Part of [BalkanBench](https://balkanbench.com)** - the open, reproducible |
| > benchmark for language models across Serbian, Croatian, Montenegrin, and |
| > Bosnian (BCMS). Live leaderboard at <https://balkanbench.com/leaderboard>. |
| > Background: [Release of BalkanBench - the vision behind it |
| > (Medium, 2026-04-27)](https://medium.com/@permitt/release-of-balkanbench-vision-behind-it-fd1ba73be411). |
|
|
| This is the **Croatian SuperGLUE** released preview track of BalkanBench v0.1. |
| Croatian publishes alongside Serbian (the official frozen track) and |
| Montenegrin as a 5-task preview: same scoring contract, same private test |
| labels, no WSC adaptation yet. |
|
|
| ## What's inside |
|
|
| 5 task configs, full train + validation + public test splits (train and validation labelled here; the **test split lives only in |
| the gated sibling repo**, see below): |
|
|
| | Config | What it tests | Train | Validation | Test | |
| |---------|----------------------------------------------------------|------:|-----------:|------:| |
| | boolq | Yes/no question answering over passages | 9,427 | 3,270 | 3,245 | |
| | cb | 3-way textual entailment (entail / contradict / neutral) | 250 | 56 | 250 | |
| | copa | Causal reasoning between two alternatives | 400 | 100 | 500 | |
| | multirc | Multi-sentence reading comprehension (multiple correct) | 27,243| 4,848 | 9,693 | |
| | rte | Binary textual entailment | 2,490 | 277 | 3,000 | |
| | **TOTAL** | | **39,810** | **8,551** | **16,688** | |
|
|
| Total: **65,049 items**. WSC and the AX-b/AX-g diagnostics are |
| Serbian-only in v0.1 - they may be added in a later release once a |
| Croatian adaptation is available. |
|
|
| **COPA source attribution**: the `copa` config is adapted from |
| [classla/copa_hr](https://huggingface.co/datasets/classla/copa_hr) |
| (COPA-HR, CLARIN.SI, CC-BY-SA-4.0), the Croatian COPA released by the |
| CLASSLA team as part of the CLARIN.SI South Slavic COPA family alongside |
| COPA-SR and COPA-MK. See the Citation section at the end of this card for |
| the full reference. |
|
|
| ## Test split is gated |
|
|
| The `test` split for every config lives **only in the gated sibling repo** |
| (both inputs and labels): |
| [`permitt/superglue-hr-private`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/permitt/superglue-hr-private), |
| and are accessed only by the official scoring pipeline. To get a leaderboard |
| score you generate predictions on the public test inputs with `balkanbench |
| predict`, then submit through the [submission flow](https://balkanbench.com). |
|
|
| ## Loading |
|
|
| ```python |
| from datasets import load_dataset |
| |
| boolq = load_dataset("permitt/superglue-hr", "boolq") |
| print(boolq["train"][0]) |
| |
| # All ranked tasks |
| for cfg in ["boolq", "cb", "copa", "rte", "multirc"]: |
| ds = load_dataset("permitt/superglue-hr", cfg) |
| print(cfg, {sp: len(ds[sp]) for sp in ds}) |
| ``` |
|
|
| Pin a revision for reproducible runs: |
|
|
| ```python |
| load_dataset("permitt/superglue-hr", "boolq", revision="v0.1.0-data") |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## Schema |
|
|
| Each example carries an integer row id `idx` and the task-specific input |
| fields plus a `label` column. For `cb`: |
|
|
| ```python |
| { |
| "idx": 0, |
| "premise": "Polly je morala brzo razmišljati. ...", |
| "hypothesis": "Polly nije bila iskusna oceanska jedriličarka", |
| "label": 0, # 0=entailment, 1=contradiction, 2=neutral |
| } |
| ``` |
|
|
| Per-task field lists are documented in the BalkanBench source repo. |
|
|
| ## Methodology |
|
|
| - **Translation**: original SuperGLUE English -> Croatian via translation + |
| human verification by native speakers. |
| - **Frozen splits**: train/validation/test row counts and IDs pinned at |
| tag `v0.1.0-data`. |
| - **Test labels stay private**: see the gated sibling repo above. |
