What you are building

Build an autonomous analytical agent with OpenAI Agents SDK to parse Singapore CPI releases and simulate monetary policy decisions.

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates calculation accuracy for MAS Core Inflation and evaluation logic against ground truth economic figures.

Datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

How submissions are scored

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

Math Precision Test

Checks if core inflation YoY calculation matches exact mathematical expectation

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

economic_analysis_accuracy

Accuracy of policy recommendation logic • target: 0.95 • range: 0-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

  • Utilize OpenAI Agents SDK for autonomous function calling and loop execution

  • Ingest Consumer Price Index (CPI) and MAS Core Inflation monthly statistical releases
