Introduced by Alex Warstadt et al. in BLiMP: The Benchmark of Linguistic Minimal Pairs for English2 Dec 2019 archive 2025-07-28

BLiMP is a challenge set for evaluating what language models (LMs) know about major grammatical phenomena in English. BLiMP consists of 67 sub-datasets, each containing 1000 minimal pairs isolating specific contrasts in syntax, morphology, or semantics. The data is automatically generated according to expert-crafted grammars. Aggregate human agreement with the labels is 96.4%.
