Description

Parsed trial records for the two retained calibration records (Study 1 and Study 2), the machine-readable audit record with its schema, the Study 3 items, pilot and main call logs, protocols (including superseded versions), manifest and summary, the supplement README, and the benchmark, experiment, re-analysis and Study 3 code.

Dataset accompanying the paper When Calibration Records Cannot Support Routing: A Denominator and Artifact Audit, TAE (Trust-AI-Eval) Workshop at NeurIPS 2026 (https://openreview.net/forum?id=uPtp2butrm).

Paper abstract. Low calibration error does not establish that verbalized confidence can support routing. We audit the evidence needed for that decision in two retained records. The first is nearly perfectly accurate and has low aggregate calibration error, but it contains only one observed error and its joint answer-confidence coverage varies sharply by endpoint. It can describe average confidence on this finite record, but cannot establish discrimination or selective risk. The second record omits item text, answers, gold labels, raw outputs, and verification evidence. Reproducible arithmetic on its supplied correctness field therefore does not become a verified behavioral estimate. Together, the cases change the operational decision from choosing a confidence threshold to redesigning the items, interface, and evidence record before any routing evaluation. We provide a compact machine-readable audit covering denominators, artifact status, calibration, discrimination, selective risk, uncertainty, and unidentified outcomes. The contribution is a bounded workflow for deciding what a calibration record can support, not a validated benchmark or a general claim about verbalized confidence.

Known limitations.

  • Raw generations for Studies 1 and 2 were not retained; only parsed rows are available.
  • This is the three-study camera-ready supplement; the OpenReview abstract describes the two retained records only.
