# SuperGLUE

### Paper

Title: `SuperGLUE: A Stickier Benchmark for General-Purpose Language Understanding Systems`
Abstract: `https://w4ngatang.github.io/static/papers/superglue.pdf`

SuperGLUE is a benchmark styled after GLUE with a new set of more difficult language
understanding tasks.

### Groups, Tags, and Tasks

#### Groups

None.

#### Tags

* `super-glue-lm-eval-v1`: SuperGLUE eval adapted from LM Eval V1
* `super-glue-t5-prompt`: SuperGLUE prompt and evaluation that matches the T5 paper (if using accelerate, will error if record is included.)

#### Tasks

Comparison between validation split score on T5x and LM-Eval (T5x models converted to HF)

### Checklist

For adding novel benchmarks/datasets to the library:
* [ ] Is the task an existing benchmark in the literature?
  * [ ] Have you referenced the original paper that introduced the task?
  * [ ] 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?
