Acquisition Decision Tasks - Fictional Showcase
Nicholas Lauga, October 2026 - four public demonstration questions from two fictional acquisition situations. Technical paper | PDF | Scoring code.
What this contains
- One fictional financial acquisition screen: revise nonbinding terms.
- Three checkpoints in a single fictional document-permission sequence: continue, pause, then resume limited review.
- Each task specifies a source timestamp, decision cutoff, question, schema fields and fictional documents.
- The reference file contains published provisional AI-assisted answers, not blind human gold labels.
Source and authorship
The source documents and question wordings are constructed fictional examples, not original seller records or clinical, employment or customer information. The larger research was directed by Nicholas Lauga and informed by his human-origin acquisition judgments, which are not included in these data files. No third-party confidential source text is offered or licensed.
Data format
Both data files use UTF-8 JSON Lines:
- tasks.jsonl: case inputs with `task_id`, `root_id`, `cutoff_utc`, `documents`, `question`, `required_fields`.
- references.jsonl: provisional example answers, matching task IDs.
Counts: 4 dependent views; 2 fictional roots; 0 published real historical transaction roots. Do not report four independent cases.
Intended use
Understand data schemas, test a local parser and demonstrate an illustrative scoring method. The supplied answers are public: do not treat them as untouched hidden evaluation data. No licensed model training permissions are provided by this public sample.
The earlier Qwen experiments described in the full paper did not use these four demonstration views. The 4/4 public example responses are not Qwen model predictions.
Limits and access conditions
The acquisition pricing rule is fictional and not a professional valuation or lending decision. Permission snapshots illustrate a controlled scenario, not legal advice. No independent qualified professional has reviewed these public reference answers. Privacy transformations for actual business files require their own source rights and privacy checks.
Copyright (c) 2026 Nicholas Lauga. All rights reserved. The sample is posted for inspection, without an open data or training license. Contact nicklauga@gmail.com for permissions or commissioned task programs.
There is no license grant for any underlying historical acquisition archive.
