From AI for Science to Agentic Science: A Survey on Autonomous Scientific Discovery

Jiaqi Wei, Yuejin Yang, Xiang Zhang et al.

What this work does

Combines workflow stages, autonomy levels and architectural mechanisms into a domain-oriented organization of agentic science.

Connection to discovery

Helps choose coverage categories and identify gaps between a workflow claim and the components actually evaluated.

Evidence

The consulted framework distinguishes computational tools, partial research assistants and autonomous-partner aspirations, with discipline-specific examples.

Scope and limitations

The autonomy categories synthesize literature rather than establish a common quantitative benchmark. The review consulted the framework sections, not every domain citation in the long survey.
