• Title: CRoW: Benchmarking Commonsense Reasoning in Real-World Tasks
• Authors: Mete Ismayilzada, Debjit Paul, Syrielle Montariol, Mor Geva, Antoine Bosselut
• Abstract summary: We present CRoW, a benchmark that evaluates the ability of models to apply commonsense reasoning in the context of six real-world NLP tasks. We use CRoW to study how NLP systems perform across different dimensions of commonsense knowledge, such as physical, temporal, and social reasoning. We find a significant performance gap when NLP systems are evaluated on CRoW compared to humans, showcasing that commonsense reasoning is far from being solved in real-world task settings.

• Abstract: Recent efforts in natural language processing (NLP) commonsense reasoning research have yielded a considerable number of new datasets and benchmarks. However, most of these datasets formulate commonsense reasoning challenges in artificial scenarios that are not reflective of the tasks which real-world NLP systems are designed to solve. In this work, we present CRoW, a manually-curated, multi-task benchmark that evaluates the ability of models to apply commonsense reasoning in the context of six real-world NLP tasks. CRoW is constructed using a multi-stage data collection pipeline that rewrites examples from existing datasets using commonsense-violating perturbations. We use CRoW to study how NLP systems perform across different dimensions of commonsense knowledge, such as physical, temporal, and social reasoning. We find a significant performance gap when NLP systems are evaluated on CRoW compared to humans, showcasing that commonsense reasoning is far from being solved in real-world task settings. We make our dataset and leaderboard available to the research community at https://github.com/mismayil/crow.

  We investigate the effectiveness of generating synthetic data through large language models (LLMs) Our experiments show that while synthetic data can effectively capture performance of various methods for simpler tasks, it falls short for more complex tasks like named entity recognition. We propose a new metric called the bias factor, which evaluates the biases introduced when the same LLM is used to both generate benchmarking data and to perform the tasks.

Very little research has been done in this area, as the progress is hindered by the lack of standardized datasets and meaningful benchmarks. Our two model-based algorithms -- OEF-PSRO and OEF-CFR -- are adaptations of the widely-used equilibrium finding algorithms Deep CFR and PSRO in the context of offline learning.
