| # NeuroClaimBench data dictionary |
|
|
| JSONL files contain one JSON object per line. IDs are stable strings; |
| SHA-256 fields identify file contents or serialized records. |
|
|
| ## Core records |
|
|
| | File | Records | Contents | |
| |---|---:|---| |
| | `cases.jsonl` | 544 | Scientific questions, analysis plans, source identities, and record links | |
| | `references.jsonl` | 544 | Reference labels, evidence basis, agreement, and scoring eligibility | |
| | `tasks.jsonl` | 489 | Executable plans and identities of their prepared input cohorts | |
| | `outcomes.jsonl` | 489 | Recorded CONFIRM gate results and execution status | |
|
|
| ### Cases |
|
|
| - `benchmark_case_id` identifies the case; `claim_uid` identifies its claim. |
| - `semantic_cluster_id` groups related claims for clustered analyses. |
| - `benchmark_track` is `scientific`, `synthetic_stress`, or `external_transfer`. |
| - `target_family`, `modality`, and `question` describe the scientific target. |
| - `contract` contains the analysis plan. `reference_id` links to its reference; |
| `task_ids` lists its executable tasks and is empty for excluded cases. |
| - `provenance`, `aliases`, and alignment fields identify source records and |
| the match between each question and its analysis plan. |
|
|
| ### References |
|
|
| - `disposition` is `confirm` (reference supports the claim), `abstain` |
| (reference withholds support), or `unresolved` (insufficient evidence). |
| - `basis` is `literature`, `constructed_control`, or `unresolved`. |
| - `strength` separates literature references into `strict` and `provisional` |
| groups. The provisional group contains additional labels admitted under |
| two-model direct-evidence rules. Neuroimaging experts finalized the |
| literature labels. Controls use `constructed`; unresolved references use |
| `evidence_gap`. |
| - `score_eligible` selects references for agreement metrics. |
| - `evidence_ids`, `derivation_rule`, `agreeing_models`, `agreement_pattern`, |
| and `vote_counts` record the evidence and rule supporting each label. |
|
|
| `confirm` in a reference is a literature or control label. CONFIRM's reporting |
| decision is computed independently from the gate results in `outcomes.jsonl`. |
|
|
| ### Tasks |
|
|
| - `task_id` identifies the task; `benchmark_case_id` links to its case. |
| - `dataset_id`, `discovery_cohort`, and `replication_cohorts` identify inputs. |
| - `contract` is the executable analysis plan; `contract_sha256` identifies it. |
| - `partition_hashes` identifies the required prepared files for tasks without |
| a generator specification. `partition_paths` records their source paths. |
| - `generator_spec` describes control construction; `generator_artifact_hashes` |
| identifies the associated construction artifacts. |
| - `evidence_role` and `evidence_freshness` describe the evidence partition. |
| - `code_sha`, `schema_version`, and `gate_policy_version` identify the |
| implementation and policy used to define the task. |
|
|
| ### Outcomes |
|
|
| - `task_id` joins the outcome to its task; `status` records execution status. |
| - `gate_verdict` contains the gate checks, diagnostic label, and rationale. |
| - `confirm_outcome` and `raw_final_label` record the Full-standard result. |
| - `error` describes a failed execution when present. |
| - `cohort_content_hashes` identifies analyzed input files. |
| `generated_cohort_hashes` identifies generated files required by tasks |
| with a `generator_spec`. |
| - `task_fingerprint` and `detailed_result_sha256` identify the task and its |
| detailed result artifact; the package distributes the compact outcome. |

| package. [Task execution](DATA_ACCESS.md) uses separately obtained prepared |
| cohort files. |
