# LM Contamination Index



Large Language Models have seen trillions of tokens – who knows what is inside? Recent works have evaluated those models on many different tasks, but did they make sure the model had not already seen the training or even the evaluation datasets? In the [blog post](https://hitz-zentroa.github.io/lm-contamination/blog), we show that some popular benchmark datasets are already memorized by ChatGPT and that one can prompt ChatGPT to regenerate them.



In this repo, we aim to collect (as much as possible) contamination evidence to provide to the research community a reliable resource to quickly check whether the model has already seen their evaluation dataset. However, we are aware of the incompleteness of the index and therefore we ask researchers to in any case, perform an small experiment of contamination beforehand.

## Contributing

The amount of datasets and models is daunting. We are thus envisioning a community effort. If you are passionate about NLP research and want to contribute against contamination in LLM evaluation, please follow the [contribution guidelines](CONTRIBUTING.md)

    abstract = "In this position paper we argue that the classical evaluation on Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks using annotated benchmarks is in trouble. The worst kind of data contamination happens when a Large Language Model (LLM) is trained on the test split of a benchmark, and then evaluated in the same benchmark. The extent of the problem is unknown, as it is not straightforward to measure. Contamination causes an overestimation of the performance of a contaminated model in a target benchmark and associated task with respect to their non-contaminated counterparts. The consequences can be very harmful, with wrong scientific conclusions being published while other correct ones are discarded. This position paper defines different levels of data contamination and argues for a community effort, including the development of automatic and semi-automatic measures to detect when data from a benchmark was exposed to a model, and suggestions for flagging papers with conclusions that are compromised by data contamination.",
