ClassicLogic: A Knowledge-Driven Benchmark of Classic Puzzle Games for Evaluating Compositional Generalization

arXiv:2607.05185v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Compositional generalization, the ability to understand and produce novel combinations of known components, remains a fundamental challenge for modern artificial intelligence. While few benchmarks exist, many focus on linguistic tasks and lack complex, explicit compositional structures. We introduce ClassicLogic, a new benchmark suite designed to evaluate an agent's ability to learn and compose problem-solving strategies. The benchmark consists of four classic logic puzzles: Sudoku, KenKen, Kakuro, and Futoshiki. Its core innovation is a hierarch
The continuous push for more robust and generalizable AI models necessitates new benchmarks, especially as current methods fall short in compositional generalization.
This benchmark offers a standardized way to evaluate AI's ability to combine existing knowledge into novel solutions, a crucial step towards more human-like intelligence and autonomous agents.
The introduction of ClassicLogic provides a focused evaluation tool for compositional generalization, potentially accelerating research and development in more capable AI systems.
