DROP (Discrete Reasoning Over Paragraphs)
Discrete Reasoning Over Paragraphs DROP is a crowdsourced, adversarially-created, 96k-question benchmark, in which a system must resolve references in a question, perhaps to multiple input positions, and perform discrete operations over them (such as addition, counting, or sorting). These operations require a much more comprehensive understanding of the content of paragraphs than what was necessary for prior datasets. The questions consist of passages extracted from Wikipedia articles. The dataset is split into a training set of about 77,000 questions, a development set of around 9,500 questions and a hidden test set similar in size to the development set.

Papers archive 2025-07-28
14 shown of 14 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 382. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
