+### Dataset Summary
+
+**CDE-Prag** is a theory-driven evaluation dataset designed to probe the pragmatic competence of Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs). It focuses specifically on **manner implicatures** and **ambiguity detection** through the lens of Chinese degree expressions (e.g., *Kai gao*, which is ambiguous between "Kai is tall" and "Kai is taller").
+
+Unlike benchmarks that rely on surface-level pattern matching, this dataset operationalizes the **Rational Speech Act (RSA)** framework. It tests whether models can navigate the trade-off between **production cost** (economy) and **communicative utility** (specificity). The dataset is divided into two subsets:
+1.  **Exploratory VLM Dataset:** A multimodal set (text + image) derived from human-subject research.
+2.  **Large-Scale LLM Dataset:** A text-only expansion containing 400 balanced context-utterance sets generating over 28,000 unique items.
+
+### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
+
+The dataset supports three primary pragmatic tasks:
+
+1.  **Truth Value Judgment (TVJ):** A "test of contradiction" to determine if the model can detect semantic ambiguity. The model must judge if an utterance is true in contexts where only one interpretation (Positive or Comparative) holds.
+2.  **Alternative Choice (ALT):** A pragmatic reconciliation task. The model must choose between a simple, ambiguous utterance (Economy) and complex, unambiguous alternatives (Specificity).
+3.  **Contextual Modulation (ALT+QUD):** A conversational task where an explicit **Question Under Discussion (QUD)** is provided to test if the model shifts its preference based on contextual salience.
+
+### Languages
+
+The dataset is in **Mandarin Chinese** (Simplified).

+## Dataset Structure
+
+### Data Instances
+
+#### VLM Subset
+An example instance for the VLM dataset includes a visual scene and a context description:
+```json
+{
+  "id": "vlm_tall_01",
+  "modality": "multimodal",
+  "context_text": "Anna considers 172cm to be tall. Ryan is 160cm, Kai 175cm, Jim 170cm.",
+  "image_path": "images/tall_01.png",
+  "utterance": "Kai gao (Kai is tall)",
+  "condition": "POS-T-COMP-F",
+  "task_type": "TVJ",
+  "options": ["Can", "Cannot"],
+  "human_label_distribution": {"Can": 1.0, "Cannot": 0.0}
+}
+```
+
+#### LLM Subset
+An example for the text-only ALT task:
+```json
+{
+  "id": "llm_expensive_05",
+  "modality": "text",
+  "context_text": "Description of a scenario where Item A is expensive but Item B is more expensive...",
+  "utterance": "Item A gui (Item A is expensive)",
+  "alternatives": {
+    "UTT": "Item A gui",
+    "ALT_1": "Item A hen gui (Positive)",
+    "ALT_2": "Item A bijiao gui (Comparative)",
+    "ALT_3": "Item A hen gui but not taller...",
+    "ALT_4": "Item A bijiao gui but not positive..."
+  },
+  "condition": "POS-T-COMP-T",
+  "task_type": "ALT",
+  "QUD": "None"
+}
+```
+
+### Data Fields
+
+*   `context_text`: The linguistic context establishing the world state (thresholds, comparison classes).
+*   `image`: (VLM only) Visual representation of the world state.
+*   `utterance`: The target ambiguous Chinese degree expression ( $\phi$ ).
+*   `condition`: The truth-conditional status of the utterance (e.g., `POS-T-COMP-F` means Positive reading is True, Comparative reading is False).
+*   `alternatives`: A set of semantically equivalent but costlier options ( $\psi$ ) used in the ALT tasks.
+*   `QUD`: (Task 3 only) An explicit Question Under Discussion designed to make one reading more salient.
+
+### Data Splits
+
+*   **VLM Subset:** 26 unique sets based on 4 evaluative adjectives (*tall, expensive, big, fast*). Intended for few-shot or exploratory evaluation.
+*   **LLM Subset:** 400 balanced sets covering 34 additional adjectives (e.g., *hot, thick, old*), totaling ~28,000 unique items. This split is designed for high-powered statistical validation.
+

+
+## Dataset Creation
+
+### Curation Rationale
+
+This dataset was created to bridge the gap in **non-English** and **multimodal** pragmatic resources. Current benchmarks often focus on literal semantics or scalar implicatures in English. CDE-Prag explicitly targets **M-implicatures** (Manner), where the choice of form (simple vs. complex) drives meaning. It allows researchers to test if models behave as "rational agents" by optimizing the trade-off between production cost and communicative clarity.
+
+### Source Data
+
+*   **VLM Data:** Derived from human-subject experimental stimuli in *Cong (2021)*. The images and contexts were validated for grammaticality and word frequency.
+*   **LLM Data:** Manually crafted expansions of the VLM logic. The text-only scenarios verbalize the visual information found in the VLM subset.
+
+### Annotations
+
+*   **Validation:** All items were manually verified for acceptability by a linguist who is a native speaker of Mandarin Chinese.
+*   **Human Baseline:** The dataset includes aggregated human response distributions (N=21 per task) to establish a "human-like" baseline for rationality and ambiguity detection.
+
+---
+
+## Considerations for Using the Data
+
+### Social Impact of Dataset
+
+This dataset contributes to the development of more **culturally and linguistically inclusive AI**. By evaluating models on Chinese pragmatic phenomena, it helps mitigate the Anglocentric bias prevalent in NLP. Furthermore, by probing "rational" communication strategies, it aids in creating agents that communicate more efficiently and naturally with humans.
+
+### Discussion of Biases
+
+While the dataset addresses linguistic bias, the models evaluated using it may still exhibit **literalism bias**. As noted in the accompanying paper, instruction-tuned models often default to over-specification (choosing explicit but costly alternatives) rather than the economical forms preferred by rational agents. Users should be aware that high accuracy on the sanity checks (superlatives) does not guarantee pragmatic competence in ambiguous contexts.
+
+### Other Known Limitations
+
+*   **Scale of VLM Data:** The VLM subset is small (26 items) and should be treated as a proof-of-concept. Statistical claims based on this subset rely on bootstrapping over generations rather than items.
+*   **Domain Specificity:** The dataset focuses strictly on degree expressions (gradable adjectives). Generalizability to other pragmatic phenomena (e.g., irony, metaphors) remains to be tested.
