# FLD

### Paper

Title: Learning Deductive Reasoning from Synthetic Corpus based on Formal Logic

Abstract: https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.07336

**FLD** (**F**ormal **L**ogic **D**eduction) is a deductive reasoning benchmark.
Given a set of facts and a hypothesis, an LLM is required to generate (i) proof steps to (dis-)prove the hypothesis, and (ii) an answer ("proved", "disproved" or unknown").

Unique features of FLD are:
* It assesses the model's logical reasoning ability *isolated from knowledge*, as the facts are randomly constructed so that referring to existing knowledge never helps solve the task.
* It assesses diverse reasoning patterns (i.e., deduction rules), as it is based on formal logic theory.
* As a result, it is highly challenging. Indeed, even GPT-4 can solve only about half of the problems.

### Groups and Tasks

#### Groups

* `fld`

#### Tasks

This release is the simplified version of FLD where a model is required to predict only an answer.
This setting is described by "answer accuracy" in the original paper.

* `fld_default` is a basic task based on [FLD.v2](https://huggingface.co/datasets/hitachi-nlp/FLD.v2/viewer/star)
* `fld_star`: is a more challenging version based on [FLD.v2-star](https://huggingface.co/datasets/hitachi-nlp/FLD.v2/viewer/star)

### Checklist

For adding novel benchmarks/datasets to the library:
* [x] Is the task an existing benchmark in the literature?
  * [x] Have you referenced the original paper that introduced the task?
  * [x] If yes, does the original paper provide a reference implementation? If so, have you checked against the reference implementation and documented how to run such a test?


If other tasks on this dataset are already supported:
* [ ] Is the "Main" variant of this task clearly denoted?
* [ ] Have you provided a short sentence in a README on what each new variant adds / evaluates?
* [ ] Have you noted which, if any, published evaluation setups are matched by this variant?
