Industrial Automation Challenge Track 1 grader format clarification #502

Closed as not planned

Description

Ready-to-send note: Track 1 hosted grader issue

Subject: Industrial Automation Challenge Track 1 grader format clarification

Hello,

We have an AIF KG-governed Industrial Automation Challenge submission package.
Track 2 has been accepted and scored successfully:

  • competition: industrial-automation-challenge-track-2
  • submission ref: 55368732
  • status: SubmissionStatus.COMPLETE
  • public score: 1.00000

Track 1 appears blocked by the hosted grader rather than by local generation.
We tried the public starter-kit format, the visible Kaggle metadata-style
format, and numeric answer encodings. All variants reach Kaggle upload, but
the hosted evaluation fails.

Observed Track 1 refs:

Ref Submission shape Result
55368741 3,048-row full test file Submission has 3048 rows but 2758 were expected
55368816 290-row multi_choice_question_answering tail only Submission has 290 rows but 2758 were expected
55368833 2,758-row id,answer with option letters Submission column answer must be a number
55368957 2,758-row numeric answer, A=0 Evaluation metric raised an unexpected error
55368978 2,758-row numeric answer, A=1 Evaluation metric raised an unexpected error
55408937 2,758-row metadata-preserving numeric answer, A=0 Submission column option_desc must be a number
55408938 2,758-row metadata-preserving numeric answer, A=1 Submission column option_desc must be a number
55488733 2,758-row public eight-column metadata schema with letter option Submission column option must be a number
55488747 2,758-row all-numeric eight-column schema, A=0 Evaluation metric raised an unexpected error
55488774 2,758-row sequential-ID all-numeric eight-column schema, A=0 Solution and submission values for id do not match
55488794 2,758-row all-numeric eight-column schema, A=1 Evaluation metric raised an unexpected error
55488832 2,758-row minimal id,option numeric schema, A=0 Evaluation metric raised an unexpected error
55488849 2,758-row minimal id,option numeric schema, A=1 Evaluation metric raised an unexpected error

Could you please clarify the required Track 1 submission schema and answer
encoding, or check whether the hosted Track 1 metric has an internal error?

    2026-08-27 follow-up with current Kaggle evidence:

    I rechecked the live Track 1 state today.

    • The Track 1 public leaderboard still has valid scored entries, but the latest accepted/scored entries visible on the downloaded leaderboard are from before the Aug 1 Kaggle discussion reporting the same submission-format error.
    • Current Kaggle discussion 731782 reports the same breakage pattern: id,answer submissions that previously worked now fail with Submission column answer must be a number; no organizer clarification is visible in that thread.
    • The Track 1 Evaluation page still documents the eight-column id,option,option_desc,model_name,model_param_size,model,fine_tune_yes_or_no,model_reasoning_traces format with letter-valued option.
    • The official IBM/AssetOpsBench@ijcai_2026_competition starter kit and QA.md still document id,answer, where answer is the selected option letter.
    • The hosted grader currently expects 2,758 rows, so the 290 extra multi_choice_question_answering rows in the Track 1 test JSONL are not part of the live grader target.
    • 2,758-row files using the JSONL q... IDs pass the row-id gate; sequential IDs fail the row-id gate.
    • Letter-valued answer/option files are rejected as nonnumeric; numeric answer/option probes reach the metric and then fail with Evaluation metric raised an unexpected error.

    This still looks like a Track 1 grader/schema mismatch introduced after earlier leaderboard submissions were scored. Track 2 remains accepted for the same team with public/private score 1.00000.

    Could you please provide either:

    1. the exact currently accepted Track 1 CSV schema and numeric encoding, or
    2. confirmation that Track 1 late submissions/code handoff should be evaluated manually by the organizers?
