CausalDS - Pass Rate: leaderboard

CausalDS (2026) generates narrated scenes from hidden structural causal models with observational data files and asks data-science agents associational, interventional and counterfactual questions that sometimes admit no identifiable answer; the 100-scene realistic exam is solved in the mini-swe-agent harness. This board is the pass rate on the discrete slice, which pools binary content answers and abstention decisions (34 to 38 tasks per model, since a wrongful abstention is graded as a binary), missing answers counted as failures, in percent; higher is better.

Metric: Pass rate (%; share correct on the discrete slice, which pools binary content answers and abstention decisions; a task is graded as an abstention binary when the truth is non-identifiable or the model abstains, so the slice holds 34 to 38 tasks per model; missing answers count as failures; on a 100-scene realistic exam of Pearl-ladder causal data-science tasks (28 associational, 51 interventional, 21 counterfactual) over SCM-generated data files, solved in the mini-swe-agent harness with at most 100 steps).
