ArgGYM: A Procedural, Engine-Verified Benchmark for Structured Defeasible Reasoning
Quick summary
arXiv:2609.38409v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent progress in large language model reasoning has been driven by benchmarks and reinforcement learning environments with automatically verifiable rewards, particularly in mathematics, code, and formal logic. These settings make model accuracy easier to evaluate and optimize, but it remains unclear how far success under fixed problem specifications and stable evaluation criteria transfers to reasoning outside such domains. Real-world reasoning often proceeds under incomplete and revisable information: conclusions may be supported provisionally
