SpanishBench

Paper

SpanishBench is a benchmark for evaluating language models in Spanish tasks. This is, it evaluates the ability of a language model to understand and generate Spanish text. SpanishBench offers a combination of pre-existing, open datasets. All the details of SpanishBench will be published in a paper soon.

The new evaluation datasets included in SpanishBench are:

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?
