Benchmark metadata from benchwiki — this page mirrors their record so scores can be joined to it. The original is canonical.

What it measures

Five-choice questions derived from ConceptNet relations, designed to require everyday knowledge beyond a supplied passage.

Primary metric

Health

For 1,140 independent test questions, a score near 50% has an approximate 95% binomial margin of error of +/-2.9 points; near the 88.9% human reference it is about +/-1.8 points. Dev-set tuning and ensemble selection add uncertainty not captured by this interval.

Status evidence
KEAR reached 89.4% on the hidden test set versus the original 88.9% human reference in 2021; the benchmark's authors then introduced the adversarially collected CommonsenseQA 2.0.

Official test answers are hidden, but training and validation questions are public and static. Use the hidden evaluation server when available, disclose retrieval and fine-tuning data, and audit overlap with public mirrors.

Models scored on this benchmark

The reverse lookup, which is this site’s addition: every model here with a score on this benchmark. Independent measurements and vendor-reported numbers are kept apart rather than interleaved, because they are different claims.

No model on this site has a score on this benchmark yet. That usually means the models that were measured on it are not in the registry, rather than that nobody has run it.

independent · vendor-reported. Points are not joined: the scores come from different models, harnesses and protocol versions, and a line between them would claim a continuity the data does not have.

Where results are tracked

Leaderboards benchwiki lists for this benchmark. These are links out, not sources this site ingests — no score below comes from any of them.
