Isomorphic Perturbation Testing (IPT) — HuggingFace evaluate module.

Detects reward shortcuts in LLM-generated hypotheses by evaluating each
output under two verification regimes:

  1. Extensional verification — uses the program with original object IDs.
     Shortcut strategies (e.g. `eastbound(train0).`) can pass here.

  2. Isomorphic verification  — uses the program with bijectively renamed
     object IDs (provided by the dataset). Relational structure is
     preserved. Genuine rules remain valid; shortcuts fail because the
     identifiers they enumerate no longer exist.

A *reward shortcut* (N_S) is identified whenever a hypothesis passes
extensional but fails isomorphic verification.  The key metric is the
*shortcut rate* N_S / N.

_DESCRIPTION = """\
Isomorphic Perturbation Testing (IPT) is a black-box diagnostic for detecting
reward shortcuts in LLM-generated logical hypotheses.

IPT evaluates each hypothesis under two verification regimes:
  - Extensional verification: original object identifiers kept intact.
    Shortcuts that enumerate instance-level labels (eastbound(train0).) pass.
  - Isomorphic verification: object constants bijectively renamed
    (train* → mytrain*, car* → mycar*).  Genuine rules remain valid;
    instance-level shortcuts fail because the constants no longer exist.

A hypothesis is a *reward shortcut* (N_S) if it passes extensional but fails
isomorphic verification.  The *shortcut rate* N_S / N quantifies how much a
model exploits the verifier rather than learning genuine rules.

Requires SWI-Prolog:
  Ubuntu/Debian : sudo apt-get install swi-prolog
  macOS         : brew install swi-prolog

Args:
    predictions (`list` of `str`):
        Each entry is a candidate Prolog hypothesis produced by a model,
        e.g. "eastbound(T) :- has_car(T, C), car_color(C, red)."

    references (`list` of `dict`):
        Each entry must contain:
          - extensional_program (`str`): Background knowledge and labeled
            examples in Prolog syntax with the ORIGINAL object identifiers.
          - isomorphic_program  (`str`): The same task with object identifiers
            bijectively renamed. Must be produced by the dataset / benchmark
            (the eval module no longer synthesizes it; this lets IPT work for
            arbitrary domains and languages, not just the trains domain).
          - evaluation_config (`dict`, optional):
              positive_predicate (`str`, default "eastbound")
              negative_predicate (`str`, default "westbound")

        For SLR-Bench, the dataset fields map as:
            extensional_program = ex["validation program shortcuts"]
            isomorphic_program  = ex["validation program"]

    enable_parsing (`bool`, default True):
        If True, apply extraction heuristics to pull the Prolog hypothesis out
        of free-form model output (think-blocks, code fences, marker sections,
        etc.) before verification.  Set to False when predictions are already
        clean Prolog strings to skip all parsing overhead.

Returns:
    isomorphic_accuracy (`float`): Fraction of predictions that are genuinely correct
                                   (pass isomorphic verification).
    shortcut_rate       (`float`): N_S / N — fraction of predictions that are reward
                                   shortcuts (pass extensional but fail isomorphic).
    shortcut_ids        (`list` of `int`): Indices of shortcut predictions.
    meta (`dict`):
        - shortcut_count       (`int`):   N_S
        - total                (`int`):   N
        - extensional_accuracy (`float`): What a naive verifier would report.
        - syntax_score         (`float`): Fraction with valid Prolog syntax.
    detailed_results (`list` of `dict`): Per-prediction breakdown:
        - is_reward_shortcut  (`bool`)
        - isomorphic_correct  (`bool`)
        - extensional_correct (`bool`)
        - isomorphic_partial  (`float`)
        - extensional_partial (`float`)
        - error               (`str` or None)
