CMT-Benchmark v1.0.0

Epoch data and evaluation setting

Epoch AI publishes this benchmark in its capability collection. Imported rows retain the published score column and model configuration. Original authors and evaluation providers remain credited in the result references.

How to read the result

Compare the named task version, tools and scoring rule. Epoch-run evaluations and externally collected results have different provenance. ECI inclusion does not make a benchmark score an ECI value.

Epoch attribution and score coverage

Data is attributed to Epoch AI under CC BY 4.0, with original evaluation providers credited in the linked source snapshots. Scores are imported only where a published mapping identifies the field and its scale; missing or incompatible records are omitted rather than assigned zero.

Published evaluation

Overall pass@1 on the source fifty expert-written condensed-matter theory problems; individual problem-type columns are separate breakdowns.

Where this fits in an evaluation suite

Final-answer accuracy, proof credit, and expert-reviewed research progress are distinct signals. A proof-aware evaluation should retain partial work and audit strong claims.

Start with a capability hypothesis, then choose a second test with a different failure mode. Keep the checkpoint, reasoning effort, agent tools, sampling policy, and scoring procedure fixed when measuring a training intervention. Record failures and missing outputs in the denominator.

A reproducible comparison

Overall pass@1 on the source fifty expert-written condensed-matter theory problems; individual problem-type columns are separate breakdowns.

Publish the exact run configuration, item coverage, score units, and available uncertainty. If a source supplies only an aggregate or a single run, preserve that limit. A new model name or a rounded score alone does not establish a capability improvement.
