framesLLM
framesLLM is a chat-formatted adaptation of the
FRAMES benchmark for evaluating
retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems. It pairs each FRAMES question and reference answer
with a fixed retrieved context embedded in a two-message conversation.
The dataset is designed to test two related capabilities:
- answering multi-hop questions from the supplied documents; and
- recognizing when the supplied context is insufficient to support the reference answer.
The source benchmark contains 824 English questions covering numerical reasoning, tabular reasoning, multiple constraints, temporal reasoning, and post-processing.
Dataset origin and transformation
The questions, reference answers, and reasoning labels originate from
google/frames-benchmark, introduced in
Fact, Fetch, and Reason: A Unified Evaluation of Retrieval-Augmented Generation.
In this adaptation, every example was enriched with retrieved document excerpts and converted to a chat-oriented representation:
- a
systemmessage contains the response instructions and retrieved context, with numbered sources; and - a
usermessage contains the original FRAMES question.
Splits
| Split | Rows | Answerable | Not answerable | Recommended use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
complete |
824 | 87 | 737 | Full benchmark evaluation |
balanced |
174 | 87 | 87 | Class-balanced answerability evaluation and faster experiments |
balanced contains every answerable example from complete and an equally sized subset of
non-answerable examples. It is an evaluation subset, not a training split.
Dataset fields
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
id |
int64 |
Identifier inherited from the complete adapted dataset. |
question |
string |
Original English multi-hop question. |
gold_answer |
string |
Reference answer from FRAMES. |
is_answerable |
bool |
Whether the embedded retrieved context is sufficient to support the reference answer. |
reasoning_types |
string |
One or more reasoning labels separated by ` |
messages |
list of {role, content} |
Two-message chat representation: one system message followed by one user message. |
The possible reasoning families are numerical reasoning, tabular reasoning, multiple constraints, temporal reasoning, and post-processing. A row may combine several families.
Loading the dataset
from datasets import load_dataset
complete = load_dataset(
"Mvanypersele/framesLLM",
split="complete",
)
balanced = load_dataset(
"Mvanypersele/framesLLM",
split="balanced",
)
To send the prepared conversation to a chat model:
example = complete[0]
messages = example["messages"]
The system prompt requires the answer to be grounded exclusively in the supplied context and to end with a source line. Evaluation code should check the prompt requirements as well as answer correctness.
Licensing and attribution
The original FRAMES benchmark is released under the Apache License 2.0. The embedded contexts include
third-party source material, notably Wikipedia-derived excerpts, which may be governed by separate
licenses and attribution requirements. For that reason this repository uses the Hugging Face
metadata value license: other rather than applying Apache-2.0 to every stored passage.
Downstream users are responsible for reviewing the licenses of the underlying source documents and preserving required notices and attribution. The original FRAMES authors and paper must also be cited.
