This repository contains CosmoPaperQA, an evaluation dataset presented in the paper Evaluating Retrieval-Augmented Generation Agents for Autonomous Scientific Discovery in Astrophysics.
CosmoPaperQA is an evaluation dataset, designed to serve as a benchmark for RAG applications with cosmology papers, with an emphasis on testing for fetching, interpretive and explanatory skills. The information sources for the questions and ideal answers are these 5 papers:
- Planck Collaboration, Planck 2018 results. VI. Cosmological parameters, Astron.Astrophys. 641 (2020) A6
- Villaescusa-Navarro et al., The CAMELS project: Cosmology and Astrophysics with MachinE Learning Simulations, Astrophys.J. 915 (2021) 71
- Villaescusa-Navarro et al., Cosmology with one galaxy? Astrophys.J. 929 (2022) 2, 132
- Riess et al., A 2.4% Determination of the Local Value of the Hubble Constant, Astrophys.J. 826 (2016) 1, 56
- Calabrese et al., The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: DR6 Constraints on Extended Cosmological Models, arXiv:2503.14454v1 (2025)
