π§ Unsolved Math β Clean
8,626 curated open research problems in mathematics and CS β including 122 Millennium Prize Problems β deduplicated, schema-flattened, and packaged as proper parquet configs with an eval-only benchmark view.
A reasoning frontier dataset: every problem here is actually unsolved or partially solved β ideal for honest capability probing instead of contaminated benchmarks.
Clean derivative of ulamai/UnsolvedMath (8,785 problems). License unchanged: CC-BY-4.0.

π― Usage
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("saidutta69/unsolved-math-clean", "problems", split="train")
# Honest eval: only truly open problems
ev = load_dataset("saidutta69/unsolved-math-clean", "open_problems_eval")
# Research-style SFT prompts
rp = load_dataset("saidutta69/unsolved-math-clean", "research_prompts")
print(rp["train"][0]["instruction"][:300])
β οΈ Notes
- These are unsolved problems β there are no reference answers. Use for capability probing, calibration of hedging behavior, and research discussion; not for accuracy scoring.
- LaTeX notation preserved verbatim.
- Millennium-level problems are intentionally near-impossible; expect models to fail honestly.
