MathAtlas: A Benchmark for Autoformalization in the Wild

Current autoformalization benchmarks are largely focused on olympiad or undergraduate mathematics, while graduate and research-level mathematics remains underexplored. In this paper, we introduce MathAtlas, the first large-scale autoformalization benchmark of in the wild graduate-level mathematics, containing ~52k theorems, definitions, exercises, examples, and proofs extracted from 103 graduate mathematics textbooks. MathAtlas is enriched with a mathematical dependency graph containing ~178k relations, and is the first autoformalization benchmark to include such relations, facilitating evaluation and development of dependency-aware autoformalization systems. Our extensive experiments show that MathAtlas is high quality but extremely challenging: strong baselines achieve at most 9.8% correctness on theorem statements and 16.7% on definitions. Furthermore, we find performance of state-of-the-art models degrades substantially with dependency depth: on MA-Hard, a subset of 700 entities with the deepest dependency trees, the best model achieves only 2.6% correctness for autoformalization on this challenging dataset. We release MathAtlas to the community as a benchmark set for large-scale autoformalization of graduate-level mathematics in the wild.

Task Contamination: Language Models May Not Be Few-Shot Anymore

Large language models (LLMs) offer impressive performance in various zero-shot and few-shot tasks. However, their success in zero-shot and few-shot settings may be affected by task contamination, a potential limitation that has not been thoroughly examined. This paper investigates how zero-shot and few-shot performance of LLMs has changed chronologically over time. Utilizing GPT-3 series models and several other recent open-sourced LLMs, and controlling for dataset difficulty, we find that on datasets released before the LLM training data creation date, LLMs perform surprisingly better than on datasets released after. This strongly indicates that, for many LLMs, there exists task contamination on zero-shot and few-shot evaluation for datasets released prior to the LLMs' training data creation date. Additionally, we utilize training data inspection, task example extraction, and a membership inference attack, which reveal further evidence of task contamination. Importantly, we find that for classification tasks with no possibility of task contamination, LLMs rarely demonstrate statistically significant improvements over simple majority baselines, in both zero and few-shot settings.

DocAMR: Multi-Sentence AMR Representation and Evaluation

Despite extensive research on parsing of English sentences into Abstraction Meaning Representation (AMR) graphs, which are compared to gold graphs via the Smatch metric, full-document parsing into a unified graph representation lacks well-defined representation and evaluation. Taking advantage of a super-sentential level of coreference annotation from previous work, we introduce a simple algorithm for deriving a unified graph representation, avoiding the pitfalls of information loss from over-merging and lack of coherence from under-merging. Next, we describe improvements to the Smatch metric to make it tractable for comparing document-level graphs, and use it to re-evaluate the best published document-level AMR parser. We also present a pipeline approach combining the top performing AMR parser and coreference resolution systems, providing a strong baseline for future research.
