# CLEVRMath — `CLEVRMath_rejected`
Rejection-sampled from the **CLEVRMath** train split. This split holds the **rejected** items — the `answer` field holds the official ground truth.
| | |
|---|---|
| rows | 25,396 |
| QA pairs | 46,380 |
| shards | 167 |
| accepted / rejected (whole family) | 1,262,493 / 46,380 |
| accept rate | **96.5%** |
| verifier | `relaxed` |
> The rejected split is training data, not just diagnostics: `answer` is the official ground truth, and `wrong_vlm` records what the model said instead.
## How the data was produced
A VLM answers every question at temperature 0 with reasoning enabled. Its answer is compared with
the official ground truth by the verifier described below; matches go to `CLEVRMath_RS_think` and
`CLEVRMath_RS_nothink`, non-matches go to `CLEVRMath_rejected` with the ground truth preserved.
The `question` field is **byte-identical to the prompt the model actually received**, including
any appended instruction, so the stored training text and the inference-time input cannot drift
apart.
## How a match is decided
### `relaxed` — ChartQA relaxed accuracy
The official ChartQA metric. If both the prediction and the reference parse as numbers, the
answer is correct when it lands within **5% relative tolerance** of the reference — chart values
are read off axes, so exact digit agreement is not a fair requirement. Otherwise the two strings
must match exactly after lowercasing, trimming, and dropping a trailing period.
## Second pass: model-as-judge
String verifiers cannot judge free-form answers at all, and they under-credit answers that are
correct but differently phrased. Every item the verifier rejected is therefore re-examined by the
same VLM in a text-only pass that sees the question, the reference and the candidate — no image,
no re-generation, it only grades text that was already produced.
The judge is instructed to compare against the reference and **never to solve the question
itself**, so an answer is not promoted merely because the model believes it is true. It answers
`CORRECT`, `WRONG`, or `UNSURE`; numbers must agree, and `UNSURE` is reserved for references that
are themselves unusable or ambiguous. **`UNSURE` is never counted as correct** — only a `CORRECT` verdict moves a row into the
accepted splits. `WRONG` and `UNSURE` both remain in the rejected split, so an unresolved case
is never silently promoted to a pass.
Calibration: run over items the string verifier had already accepted, the judge agreed on 59/60.
Spot-checking its overturns shows it discriminates rather than rubber-stamps — it keeps
`\frac{L}{n}` rejected against a reference of `\frac{L}{n-1}`, and returns `UNSURE` when the
model argues no finite answer exists against a numeric reference.
## Schema
- `image` — HF `Image()` — renders directly in the dataset viewer
- `qa` — list of {`question`, `answer`, `wrong_vlm`, `reason`}
- `clean_meta` — per-row provenance and the cleaning policy that admitted it
- `image_sha256` — content hash of the image
## Examples
Three rows taken straight from this split. Images are the **original files** as stored in the dataset, and long fields are shown in full.
### Example 1
![case1](samples/case1_0.png)
| field | value |
|---|---|
| `question` | Question: Subtract all big blue things. Subtract all large rubber objects. How many objects are left?<br>Answer in short without any other content. |
| `answer` | 0 |
| `reason` | wrong_answer |
<details>
<summary><code>wrong_vlm</code> (1 chars)</summary>
```
2
```
</details>
### Example 2
![case2](samples/case2_0.png)
| field | value |
|---|---|
| `question` | Question: Add 1 matte objects. How many objects exist?<br>Answer in short without any other content. |
| `answer` | 10 |
| `reason` | wrong_answer |
<details>
<summary><code>wrong_vlm</code> (1 chars)</summary>
```
9
```
</details>
### Example 3
![case3](samples/case3_0.png)
| field | value |
|---|---|
| `question` | Subtract all gray objects. Subtract all gray rubber cylinders. How many objects are left?<br>Answer in short without any other content. |
| `answer` | 4 |
| `reason` | wrong_answer |

## Cleaning applied before rejection sampling
- **Provenance check.** Each QA item records where it came from; items whose recorded source does
not resolve to the image they are attached to are dropped.
- **Task purity.** The pool's InfinityMM slice assigns samples to a family by image match rather
than by dataset origin, which pulls unrelated general-VQA questions into benchmark families.
Families where that content measured off-task keep only their genuine benchmark QA.
- **Multiple-choice normalisation.** Where options had been flattened into prose, they are
re-rendered as a lettered block and the reference is rewritten to the bare letter, so the task
is well posed and the answer is unambiguous.
