DiscoveryBench: Towards Data-Driven Discovery with Large Language Models

Bodhisattwa Prasad Majumder, Harshit Surana, Dhruv Agarwal et al.

What this work does

Constructs discovery questions and reference hypotheses from published data-analysis workflows, with a separate synthetic dataset-generation route.

Connection to discovery

A fixed-data benchmark for hypothesis formulation, dataset interpretation and multistep analysis.

Evidence

The body defines contexts, variables and relationships, and evaluates their recovery rather than treating every plausible explanation as correct.

Scope and limitations

Published-reference matching narrows what counts as discovery, and reference-guided oracle feedback is a special condition. Existing scientific data do not constitute new physical experiment execution.
