BalkanBench SuperGLUE - Serbian
Part of BalkanBench - the open, reproducible benchmark for language models across Serbian, Croatian, Montenegrin, and Bosnian (BCMS). Live leaderboard at https://balkanbench.com/leaderboard. Background and motivation: Release of BalkanBench - the vision behind it (Medium, 2026-04-27).
This is the Serbian SuperGLUE track of BalkanBench v0.1. Serbian is the official frozen track: the leaderboard's ranked average is computed over 6 ranked tasks, with 2 diagnostic tasks reported separately. Croatian and Montenegrin previews live in sibling repos (superglue-hr / superglue-mne).
What's inside
7 task configs are published here in their full train + validation + public test form (train + 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 |
| record | Commonsense cloze over news articles | 5,607 | 1,869 | 1,869 |
| rte | Binary textual entailment | 2,490 | 277 | 3,000 |
| wsc | Coreference resolution requiring world knowledge | 554 | 104 | 146 |
| TOTAL | 45,971 | 10,524 | 18,703 |
For the 6 ranked v0.1 tasks (BoolQ, CB, COPA, RTE, MultiRC, WSC) the total is 65,853 items across all splits; ReCoRD ships in this repo for community use but is not part of the v0.1 ranked average. The diagnostic tasks AX-b (1,104) and AX-g (356) are Serbian-only and ship in the gated superglue-sr-private sibling repo with their test labels.
Test split is gated
The test split for every config lives only in the gated sibling repo
(both inputs and labels):
permitt/superglue-sr-private,
and are accessed only by the official scoring pipeline. This preserves
leaderboard integrity: nobody (including model authors) can train against
test labels, and train + validation remain a fully open and labeled
playground.
To get a number on the leaderboard you generate predictions on the public
test inputs with balkanbench predict, then submit the predictions.jsonl
through the submission flow.
Loading
from datasets import load_dataset
# A specific task
boolq = load_dataset("permitt/superglue-sr", "boolq")
print(boolq["train"][0])
# All ranked tasks at once
for cfg in ["boolq", "cb", "copa", "rte", "multirc", "wsc"]:
ds = load_dataset("permitt/superglue-sr", cfg)
print(cfg, {sp: len(ds[sp]) for sp in ds})
Pin a revision for reproducible runs:
load_dataset("permitt/superglue-sr", "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 example, cb:
{
"idx": 0,
"premise": "Bio je to složen jezik. ...",
"hypothesis": "Jezik je ogoljen.",
"label": 0, # 0=entailment, 1=contradiction, 2=neutral
}
Per-task field lists are documented in the BalkanBench source repo.
Methodology
- Translation: original SuperGLUE English -> Serbian via translation + human verification by native speakers.
- Frozen splits: train/validation/test row counts and IDs are pinned
at tag
v0.1.0-data; reruns of an evaluation against this tag will see the exact same data. - Test labels stay private: see the gated sibling repo above.
