The pith

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

The reading

This paper aims to close the gap between table-reasoning benchmarks and real-world spreadsheet use by introducing MiMoTable, a dataset of 428 genuine Excel files and 1,719 question-answer pairs spanning seven domains, both languages, and four table-reasoning tasks. It also proposes a new way to measure question difficulty: each question is tagged with one or more of six meta operations (Lookup, Edit, Compare, Calculate, Visualize, Reasoning), and a formula converts the tags into a difficulty score. The paper's key evidence is that the best tested LLM, Claude-3.5-Sonnet, scores only 77.4% accuracy on MiMoTable, and that on existing benchmarks, model accuracy falls as the meta-operation difficulty score rises (WikiSQL 1.5, WikiTableQuestion 2.0, MiMoTable-Simple 2.2). If this holds, the meta-operation score becomes a practical tool for predicting LLM performance on any table dataset before running a single model, and MiMoTable stands as a harder, more realistic test bed.

What carries the argument

The central object is the taxonomy of six meta operations, each with a difficulty grade: Lookup and Edit are grade 1, Compare, Calculate, and Visualize are grade 2, and Reasoning is grade 3. A question's difficulty score is computed as $q_{si} = m_{s_i} + \frac{\sum_{k=1}^{K_i} s_k - m_{s_i}}{M_{m_{s_i}}}$, where $m_{s_i}$ is the maximum grade among the question's operations and $M_{m_{s_i}}$ caps the sum of the remaining grades (1 for grade 1, 6 for grade 2, 8 for grade 3), giving a score in [1,4]. A dataset's difficulty is the average of its question scores. This score is what lets the paper grade existing benchmarks like WikiSQL and WikiTableQuestions on the same scale and compare them against measured LLM accuracy.

What would settle it

Hand-label a random sample of 200 questions from WikiSQL and WikiTableQuestions into the six meta operations and recompute the dataset difficulty scores; if the scores no longer sit at 1.5 and 2.0, or the accuracy drop in Figure 10 disappears with human-verified labels, the criterion's predictive claim fails.

Watch

Extended reading notes

Core claim

The paper proposes that current table-reasoning benchmarks miss real-world spreadsheet complexity, and that a new meta-operation difficulty criterion can place benchmarks from different tasks on a common scale. It validates this by showing that LLM accuracy declines monotonically as the meta-operation difficulty score rises from WikiSQL (1.5) to WikiTableQuestions (2.0) to MiMoTable-Simple (2.2), and that the best model, Claude-3.5-Sonnet, reaches only 77.4% on MiMoTable, with performance dropping to 63.3% on Reasoning questions and 72.1% on hard tables.

Load-bearing premise

The evidence that the difficulty criterion works assumes that GPT-4o's meta-operation labels for existing benchmarks are correct, and the paper reports no human check of those labels.

Editorial extensions

If this is right

  • MiMoTable provides a more realistic stress test for LLMs, since it includes real spreadsheets with complex headers, multiple sheets, multiple files, and multiple tables per sheet.
  • The meta-operation difficulty score gives a common scale for comparing benchmarks across different table tasks, so a score of 2.0 on one dataset can be interpreted as equally hard as the same score on another.
  • Model rankings on WikiSQL and WikiTableQuestions can be explained by difficulty rather than by dataset-specific quirks, and the same reasoning can be applied to any new table benchmark.
  • The 77.4% ceiling quantifies remaining headroom, and the per-operation scores identify which capabilities need the most work, such as Reasoning at 63.3% for the best model.
  • For simple and medium tables, a code-interpreter approach beats a text-based approach on Calculate and Compare, while text-based is better on hard tables and on Lookup and Reasoning, suggesting future systems should route by table difficulty and operation type.

Reading between the lines

Editorial extensions of the paper, not claims the author makes directly.

  • A human-annotation study of the meta-operation labels on WikiSQL and WikiTableQuestions would test whether the 1.5 and 2.0 difficulty scores are stable; if labels shift, the claimed monotonic trend may be a GPT-4o artifact.
  • The meta-operation taxonomy could be used to build difficulty-controlled subsets of a benchmark, letting researchers evaluate models on a curriculum from Lookup-only to Reasoning-heavy questions.
  • The same scoring scheme could be extended to other structured-data formats, such as databases or forms, to create comparable difficulty metrics across data modalities.
  • The paper's limitation section notes no supervised fine-tuning was performed; fine-tuning models per meta operation would reveal which operations are learnable and whether 77.4% is a data ceiling or a model ceiling.

Referee Report

4 major / 6 minor

Summary. The paper introduces MiMoTable, a bilingual (Chinese/English) spreadsheet reasoning benchmark built from 428 real-world spreadsheets and 1,719 (spreadsheet, question, answer) triplets. The benchmark covers four table-reasoning task types and a wide range of table structures, including simple and complex headers, multiple sheets, multiple files, and multiple tables per sheet. The authors also propose a new difficulty criterion based on six meta operations (Lookup, Edit, Calculate, Compare, Visualize, Reasoning), assign each operation a grade, and derive question-level and dataset-level difficulty scores. They evaluate 16 LLMs and report that Claude-3.5-Sonnet achieves the best accuracy of 77.4%. Finally, they grade WikiSQL and WikiTableQuestion with the same criterion and claim that the resulting difficulty ordering is validated by the observed drop in LLM accuracy across the three datasets.

Significance. If the benchmark and the difficulty criterion are validated, MiMoTable is a useful resource: it targets real-world spreadsheet complexity that most existing table benchmarks lack, it spans multiple task types and languages, and it is open-sourced. The construction pipeline is described in detail, answers were human-annotated with a reported Cohen's Kappa of 0.83, and the best-model accuracy of 77.4% indicates headroom for current LLMs. The meta-operation difficulty criterion is an interesting and potentially generalizable analytical tool. However, the evidence for the criterion's effectiveness is currently much weaker than the abstract's 'proven effectiveness' claim: the external validation rests on three dataset-level points with model-generated difficulty labels, and the within-benchmark difficulty results are not controlled for table difficulty. These issues are addressable and do not undermine the value of the dataset itself.

major comments (4)
  1. [§3.2, Figure 10] The claim that the meta-operation difficulty criterion is 'proven effective' rests on Figure 10, which shows a monotonic accuracy drop across only three datasets: WikiSQL (difficulty 1.5), WikiTableQuestion (2.0), and MiMoTable-Simple (2.2). The x-axis values are computed by applying the GPT-4o classifier in Table 8 to existing benchmarks, with no reported human validation of those classifications. Because the same model family is later evaluated, the difficulty labels and model accuracies are not independent. Moreover, the three datasets differ in answer format, table provenance, and question distribution, so the observed drop could reflect these confounds rather than the criterion's validity. Please provide human-validated difficulty labels and a controlled comparison, for example by scoring questions from a single dataset or by matching questions across table-difficulty strata.
  2. [§3.2, Table 6] Table 6 reports accuracy by question-difficulty bins without stratifying by table difficulty. For Claude-3.5-Sonnet, accuracy falls from 89.0% on questions with difficulty [1,2) to 63.3% on [3,4], while accuracy on hard tables is 72.1%. If hard tables are overrepresented among high-difficulty questions, the drop could be explained by table structure rather than by meta-operation complexity. Please report accuracy within table-difficulty strata, or a regression with table difficulty as a covariate, to support the claim that question difficulty as defined by meta operations is the driving factor.
  3. [§3.1, Table 10] All accuracy numbers in Table 6 depend on GPT-4o judging whether candidate answers are correct. The prompt in Table 10 allows a 0-1 score for open-ended questions, but the paper does not state how these scores are converted into binary accuracy, nor does it report agreement between the GPT-4o judge and human annotators. Since GPT-4o also generated the questions and is one of the evaluated models, this is a potential source of bias. Please specify the conversion rule and report a human-validated sample of judge decisions, for example at least 100 items across models and difficulty levels.
  4. [§3.2, Table 6] The reported 77.4% accuracy is computed only on questions without the Edit and Visualize meta operations, because most evaluated models cannot produce edited files or charts. The paper does not state how many of the 1,719 questions are excluded. The headline result therefore does not characterize performance on the full benchmark. Please report the size of the evaluated subset, the accuracy of GPT-4o-CI on the full set, and, if possible, an evaluation of the full benchmark using format-appropriate metrics for file and chart outputs.
minor comments (6)
  1. [Abstract and §3.2] The phrase 'proving the effectiveness' overstates the evidence presented; consider 'providing evidence for' or 'supporting' until the validation concerns are addressed.
  2. [§2.2, Eq. (3)] Equation (3) uses M_msqi before its values are specified in Eq. (5); reorder the presentation and state the assumption that each meta operation can appear at most once in a question before introducing the formula.
  3. [Table 6] For every model, the accuracy under 'Question Difficulty [1,2)' is identical to the accuracy under 'Lookup'; this suggests the two subsets coincide or that a column is mislabeled, so please clarify the subset definitions.
  4. [§2.3] The multi-file construction is described as 'randomly sampled' groups of 2-5 files, but the paper does not report how many such groups were created or whether files are reused; please add this statistic for reproducibility and to rule out cross-question leakage.
  5. [§1] The term 'multi-scale' in the benchmark name is not defined; please state explicitly that it refers to variation in sheets, files, tables per sheet, and header complexity.
  6. [Figure 7] The radar chart overlays many models and is difficult to read in print; consider separate panels or a table for the per-meta-operation accuracies.

Circularity Check

1 steps flagged · score 2.0 of 10

Mild circularity in the MiMoTable-Simple validation point, but the meta-operation criterion itself is not fitted to accuracy and the central correlation retains independent content.

  1. other [Section 2.3 Question Generation and Section 3.2 Effectiveness of Meta Operations / Figure 10]
    "To ensure the diversity of questions, the multiple questions should contain different combinations of meta operations. ... The questions involving simple tables in MiMoTable, denoted as MiMoTable-Simple, have a difficulty of 2.2."

    MiMoTable questions were generated so that each question would contain requested meta-operation combinations, and the same meta-operation labels determine the difficulty score used for MiMoTable-Simple in the validation plot. Therefore the MiMoTable-Simple data point is not an independent test of the meta-operation criterion: its x-coordinate is an input to data construction rather than an external measurement. The other two points (WikiSQL and WikiTableQuestion) are externally classified and the accuracy decline is empirical, so the circularity is partial and does not force the main result by construction.

full rationale

The central derivation is not circular: the meta-operation difficulty scores come from a hand-defined rubric (Table 2) with grades 1-3, combined by Equation 3 and averaged by Equation 6, none of which are fitted to model accuracy. The claim that accuracy decreases as difficulty increases is an empirical correlation across WikiSQL, WikiTableQuestion, and MiMoTable-Simple. The mild circularity is that MiMoTable-Simple's difficulty score is computed from the same meta-operation taxonomy that guided its question generation, so that point does not independently validate the taxonomy. The difficulty labels for WikiSQL and WikiTableQuestion are produced by GPT-4o using the prompt in Table 8, and GPT-4o is also one of the evaluated models; this is a label-quality and potential-bias concern rather than a logical circularity. The only self-citations (Song et al., 2024a,b) appear in Section 6 as inspiration for future long-context and in-context-learning directions and are not load-bearing. The paper's overstrong wording 'proving the effectiveness' is a correctness-risk issue, not a circular derivation.

Assumptions & free parameters 1 free parameters · 4 assumptions · 0 invented entities

The framework rests on hand-assigned operation grades and on LLM-generated labels being trustworthy; neither has independent external grounding. No new physical or causal entities are introduced, so the invented entities list is empty.

free parameters (1)
  • Meta operation grade assignments = Lookup=1, Edit=1, Compare=2, Calculate=2, Visualize=2, Reasoning=3
    Hand-chosen in Table 2 based on 'common criteria'. These grades determine every question and dataset difficulty score, so the correlation claim in Figure 10 depends on them.
assumptions (4)
  • ad hoc to paper The six meta operations are exhaustive and non-overlapping enough to represent all table-reasoning problems.
    Stated in Section 2.2 and Figure 3; the paper gives examples but no formal proof that the taxonomy covers all tasks.
  • domain assumption GPT-4o's meta-operation classifications are accurate enough to grade existing benchmarks.
    In Section 3.1, the difficulty of WikiSQL and WikiTableQuestion is computed from GPT-4o classifications, with no human agreement rate reported for these labels.
  • domain assumption GPT-4o answer judging reliably matches human judgments of correctness.
    In Section 3.1 Metrics, correctness is judged by GPT-4o, including a 0-1 score for open-ended questions, but no comparison to human judgments is reported.
  • domain assumption Spreadsheets collected from Baidu Wenku and Google searches are representative of real-world spreadsheet use.
    In Section 2.3 Table Collection, sources are described but sampling is not randomized and filtering is manual, so representativeness is assumed.

Extensive research has been conducted to explore the capability of Large Language Models (LLMs) for table reasoning and has significantly improved the performance on existing benchmarks. However, tables and user questions in real-world applications are more complex and diverse, presenting an unignorable gap compared to the existing benchmarks. To fill the gap, we propose a \textbf{M}ult\textbf{i}-scale spreadsheet benchmark with \textbf{M}eta \textbf{o}perations for \textbf{Table} reasoning, named as MiMoTable. Specifically, MiMoTable incorporates two key features. First, the tables in MiMoTable are all spreadsheets used in real-world scenarios, which cover seven domains and contain different types. Second, we define a new criterion with six categories of meta operations for measuring the difficulty of each question in MiMoTable, simultaneously as a new perspective for measuring the difficulty of the existing benchmarks. Experimental results show that Claude-3.5-Sonnet achieves the best performance with 77.4\% accuracy, indicating that there is still significant room to improve for LLMs on MiMoTable. Furthermore, we grade the difficulty of existing benchmarks according to our new criteria. Experiments have shown that the performance of LLMs decreases as the difficulty of benchmarks increases, thereby proving the effectiveness of our proposed new criterion.
