#### Question Types
201 questions are generated dynamically across three categories:
204 questions are generated dynamically across four categories:
- **Field retrieval (36%)**: Direct value lookups or values that can be read straight off a record (including booleans and simple counts such as array lengths)
- **Field retrieval (33%)**: Direct value lookups or values that can be read straight off a record (including booleans and simple counts such as array lengths)
- Example: "What is Alice's salary?" → `75000`
- Example: "How many items are in order ORD-0042?" → `3`
- Example: "What is the customer name for order ORD-0042?" → `John Doe`
- **Aggregation (37%)**: Dataset-level totals and averages plus single-condition filters (counts, sums, min/max comparisons)
- **Aggregation (31%)**: Dataset-level totals and averages plus single-condition filters (counts, sums, min/max comparisons)
- Example: "How many employees work in Engineering?" → `17`
- Example: "What is the total revenue across all orders?" → `45123.50`
- Example: "How many employees have salary > 80000?" → `23`
- **Filtering (27%)**: Multi-condition queries requiring compound logic (AND constraints across fields)
- **Filtering (24%)**: Multi-condition queries requiring compound logic (AND constraints across fields)
- Example: "How many employees in Sales have salary > 80000?" → `5`
- Example: "How many active employees have more than 10 years of experience?" → `8`
- **Structure awareness (12%)**: Tests format-native structural affordances (TOON's [N] count and {fields}, CSV's header row)
- Example: "How many employees are in the dataset?" → `100`
- Example: "List the field names for employees" → `id, name, email, department, salary, yearsExperience, active`
- Example: "What is the department of the last employee?" → `Sales`
#### Evaluation Process
1. **Format conversion**: Each dataset is converted to all 6 formats (TOON, JSON compact, XML, YAML, JSON, CSV).
1. **Format conversion**: Each dataset is converted to all 6 formats (TOON, JSON compact, JSON, YAML, XML, CSV).
2. **Query LLM**: Each model receives formatted data + question in a prompt and extracts the answer.
3. **Validate with LLM-as-judge**: `gpt-5-nano` validates if the answer is semantically correct (e.g., `50000` = `$50,000`, `Engineering` = `engineering`, `2025-01-01` = `January 1, 2025`).
#### Models & Configuration
- **Models tested**: `gpt-5-nano`, `claude-haiku-4-5-20251001`, `gemini-2.5-flash`, `grok-4-fast-non-reasoning`
- **Models tested**: `claude-haiku-4-5-20251001`, `gemini-2.5-flash`, `gpt-5-nano`, `grok-4-fast-non-reasoning`
- **Token counting**: Using `gpt-tokenizer` with `o200k_base` encoding (GPT-5 tokenizer)
- **Temperature**: Not set (models use their defaults)
- **Total evaluations**: 201 questions × 6 formats × 4 models = 4,824 LLM calls
- **Total evaluations**: 204 questions × 6 formats × 4 models = 4,896 LLM calls
