Multilingual-Math-20K (EN / ZH / ES / TH)
The math post-training corpus from the paper "M-GOAL: Toward Accurate and Language-Consistent Reasoning in LLMs via English-Only Post-Training" (EMNLP 2026, to appear).
19,759 math reasoning problems, fully parallel across four languages (English original + Chinese / Spanish / Thai translations), each with a step-by-step solution ending in a unified \boxed{<answer>} and a gold answer field. The paper's main results use the English file only (English-only post-training); the zh/es/th files support the translated-mixture ablations (Tables 5, 6 and 9). Companion dataset: mgoal-knowledge-mcq (non-math domain).
- 79,036 problem–language pairs (19,759 × 4), aligned by
qid - Solutions included for every language (not just questions)
- Machine-translated with a multi-stage quality-escalation pipeline + automatic and human verification
- Per-record provenance: source dataset, subset, and which translation route produced it
Composition
| Source | Records | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| GSM8K (train) | 7,473 | grade-school word problems; #### N answers converted to \boxed{N} |
| OpenR1-Math-220k (sampled) | 12,286 | olympiads 9,322 · cn_contest 1,115 · aops_forum 1,016 · amc_aime 715 · inequalities 80 · number_theory 38 |
Answer types: numeric 16,682 · letter 2,718 · LaTeX 236 · other 123.
Data fields
One JSON object per line; file mixed_20k_<lang>.jsonl carries question_<lang> / solution_<lang>:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
qid |
Stable problem id, identical across the four files (parallel alignment key) |
source / subset |
gsm8k or openr1 + fine-grained subset |
problem_type, openr1_gid, openr1_cc |
OpenR1 provenance metadata (null for GSM8K) |
answer |
Gold final answer; for OpenR1 extracted from the last \boxed{} of the English solution, for GSM8K the original label |
question_<lang> |
Problem statement in the file's language |
solution_<lang> |
Step-by-step solution in the file's language, ending in \boxed{<answer>} |
translation_method |
Which pipeline route produced this record's translation (see below) |
Translation pipeline
Primary translation by DeepSeek (flash route), with an automatic quality-escalation ladder for records failing language-identification or answer-consistency checks: chunked re-translation → v4pro (stronger model) → best_of_10 sampling → smart_r1 → final_5x → nllb fallback → human fixes.
| Route | ZH | ES | TH |
|---|---|---|---|
| flash (primary) | 17,884 | 19,195 | 13,768 |
| chunked | 711 | 185 | 4,110 |
| v4pro | 901 | 208 | 10 |
| best_of_10 | 218 | 139 | 1,348 |
| smart_r1 / final_5x / ds_after_gpt / gpt5_mini | 19 | 14 | 405 |
| nllb | 6 | 2 | 78 |
| human / human_orphan | 20 | 16 | 40 |
| escalated beyond primary | 9.5% | 2.9% | 30.3% |
The Thai column illustrates why "just translate it" is not free: ~30% of Thai records required escalation beyond the cheapest translator to pass verification.
Quality control (v2 cleaning pass)
- Language identification (fastText): question+solution language match ≥ 99.0% per language (en 99.65 / zh 99.0 / es 99.6 / th 99.7)
- Answer consistency: final
\boxed{}matches theanswerfield in 100.00% of records per language - Removed 131 records from v1: translation pollution such as chat-template fragments or "I will translate…" artifacts (128), no
\boxed{}in the English solution (2), EN/translation answer mismatch (1) - Answer-leakage scrub: trailing "Answer: X" hints removed from ~110 questions per language
- Format unification: every solution in every language ends with
\boxed{<answer>}
Full machine-readable details in stats.json and cleaning_report.json.
Intended uses
Research on multilingual mathematical reasoning: SFT / RL post-training, studying response-language behavior (e.g., whether models reason in the query's language), translated-data ablations, and cross-lingual evaluation. The four-way parallel structure (same qid across languages) supports controlled comparisons of the same problem across languages.
Limitations
- Translations are machine-generated (with the QC above); residual translation noise exists, most likely in Thai.
- The OpenR1 portion skews toward competition-level problems; the GSM8K portion is grade-school level. Filter by
source/subsetif you need a uniform difficulty band. - ~15% of answers are non-numeric (letter/LaTeX); filter by answer type for exact-match numeric evaluation.
- Only questions and solutions were translated; no cultural localization was performed (names, currencies, and contexts remain as in the originals).
