Gemma-2-7B Zero-Shot and Few-Shot Performance Gaps Across BIG-Bench Math Domains

Abstract

Abstract: This report synthesises findings from 13 peer-reviewed papers addressing the following research question: How does the zero-shot vs few-shot performance gap between Gemma-2-7B and larger parameter models vary across different BIG-Bench mathematical problem domains (e.g., algebra, calculus, logic). 10 claims were extracted from source literature; 9 were independently verified against retrieved documents. An automated multi-reviewer quality assessment produced a score of 8.1/10. This report is a machine-generated literature synthesis and does not constitute original research.

Research Question
