CORE-LLM-Bench: A Controlled Neurosymbolic Benchmark for Ontology-Grounded Reasoning in Large Language Models

CORE-LLM-Bench is a controlled neurosymbolic benchmark for evaluating ontology-grounded reasoning in large language models.

Version 1.1.1 is a corrective release that supersedes v1.1.0 for future use. It contains 9,048 unique question-hop instances: 6,032 binary question-answering (BQA) instances and 3,016 open-ended question-answering (OEQA) instances.

This release corrects source IRIs, completes the OEQA entailment sets, replaces 67 affected FALSE BQA pair members, corrects natural-language identity and namespace annotations, and repairs proof and complexity metadata.

The frozen evaluation contains 81,432 accepted observations. Of these, 64,974 validated observations were reused and 16,458 correction-affected evaluation cells were rerun through 16,443 deduplicated paid requests. Model predictions were not manually edited. Reused observations include 15,855 qualified non-exact-prompt natural-language transfers, documented in the release provenance.

The complete Zenodo archive includes benchmark JSONs, the canonical corrected Parquet dataset, frozen model responses and predictions, correction provenance, per-observation evaluation outputs, validation and audit material, and release documentation.
