Prerequisite RElation LEARNing (PRELEARN)
Original Paper: https://ceur-ws.org/Vol-2765/paper164.pdf
This dataset contains a collection of binary-labelled concept pairs (A,B) extracted from textbooks on four domains: data mining, geometry, physics and precalculus. Then, domain experts were asked to manually annotate if pairs of concepts showed a prerequisite relation or not, therefore the dataset consists of both positive and negative concept pairs.
We obtained the data from the original repository, making only one modification: undersampling the training data. To evaluate generative models in in-context learning, it's essential to have a balanced distribution for sampling examples in a few-shot setting. The undersampling process was carried out randomly, and separately for each domain.
Example
Here you can see the structure of the single sample in the present dataset.
{
"concept_A": string, # text of the concept A
"wikipedia_passage_concept_A": string, # paragraph of wikipedia corresponding to concept A
"concept_B": string, # text of the concept B
"wikipedia_passage_concept_B": string, # paragraph of wikipedia corresponding to concept B
"target": int, # 0: B non è preconcetto di A, 1: B è preconcetto di A

Proposed Prompts
Here we will describe the prompt given to the model over which we will compute the perplexity score, as model's answer we will chose the prompt with lower perplexity. Moreover, for each subtask, we define a description that is prepended to the prompts, needed by the model to understand the task.
Description of the task: "Dati due concetti, indica se primo concetto è un prerequisito o meno per il secondo.\nUn concetto A è prerequisito per un concetto B, se per comprendere B devo prima aver compreso A.\nI seguenti concetti appartengono al dominio: {{domain}}.\n\n"
Cloze Style:
Label (B non è prerequisito di A): "{{concept_B}} non è un prerequisito per {{concept_A}}"
Label (B è prerequisito di A): "{{concept_B}} è un prerequisito per {{concept_A}}"
MCQA Style:
Domanda: il concetto {{concept_B}} è un prerequisito per la comprensione del concetto {{concept_A}}? Rispondi sì o no:
