StrategyBench: Evaluating Explicit Strategy Induction in Large Language Models
As large language models are increasingly used in data-scarce and evolving task scenarios, few-shot in-context learning (ICL) has become a key paradigm for task adaptation. However, direct ICL often uses a small set of examples without explicitly abstracting task rules, making it sensitive to example construction. In contrast, human learners often reduce such sensitivity by first summarizing task rules from examples and then applying them to new instances. To evaluate this ability, we propose StrategyBench, which selects strategy-inducible tasks from BIG-Bench, constructs reference strategies,
