In this work, we introduce SPARROW, SPARROW is a evaluation benchmark for sociopragmatic meaning understanding. SPARROW comprises 169 datasets covering 13 task types across six primary categories (e.g., anti-social language detection, emotion recognition). SPARROW datasets encompass 64 different languages originating from 12 language families representing 16 writing scripts.

How to Use SPARROW

Request Access

To obtain access to the SPARROW benchmark on Huggingface, follow the following steps:

Login on your Haggingface account
Request access
- Please fill in your actual full name and affiliation (e.g., the name of your research institute).
- Please use your official email address if it is available.

Submitting your results on SPARROW test

We design a public leaderboard for scoring PLMs on SPARRAW. Our leaderboard is interactive and offers rich meta-data about the various datasets involved as well as the language models we evaluate.

You can evalute your models using SPARROW leaderboard: https://sparrow.dlnlp.ai
