SurGE
Welcome to the official Hugging Face repository for SurGE, a benchmark and dataset for end-to-end scientific survey generation in the computer science domain.
SurGE provides a comprehensive resource for evaluating automated survey generation systems through both a large-scale dataset and a fully automated evaluation framework.
More information at: https://github.com/oneal2000/SurGE
Overview
SurGE is designed to push the boundaries of automated survey generation by tackling the complex task of creating coherent, in-depth survey articles from a vast academic literature collection. Unlike traditional IR tasks focused solely on document retrieval, SurGE requires systems to:
- Retrieve: Identify relevant academic articles from a corpus of over 1 million papers.
- Organize: Construct a structured and hierarchical survey outline.
- Synthesize: Generate a coherent narrative with proper citations, reflecting expert-authored surveys.
The benchmark includes 205 carefully curated ground truth surveys, each accompanied by detailed metadata and a corresponding hierarchical structure, along with an extensive literature knowledge base sourced primarily from arXiv.
Data Release
This repository contains all necessary components for working with the SurGE dataset:
Dataset Files & Formats:
- Ground Truth Surveys: Each survey includes metadata fields such as title, authors, publication year, abstract, hierarchical structure, and citation lists.
- Literature Knowledge Base: A corpus of 1,086,992 academic papers with key fields (e.g., title, authors, abstract, publication date, and category).
- Auxiliary Mappings: Topic-to-publication mappings to support systematic survey generation.
The complete dataset can be downloaded from this Google Drive folder.
Then you will get the folder data .
Ground Truth Survey
A ground truth survey contains the full content of a survey and its citation information. However, due to space constraints, we cannot display it in its entirety here.
All ground truth surveys are available in data/surveys.json
A survey consists of the following fields:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| authors | List of contributing researchers. |
| survey_title | The title of the survey paper. |
| year | The publication year of the survey. |
| date | The exact timestamp of publication. |
| category | Subject classification following the arXiv taxonomy. |
| abstract | The abstract of the survey paper. |
| structure | Hierarchical representation of the survey’s organization. |
| survey_id | A unique identifier for the survey. |
| all_cites | List of document IDs cited in the survey. |
| Bertopic_CD | A diversity measure computed using BERTopic. |
Literature Knowledge Base
The corpus containing all literature articles is available in: data/corpus.json
Example : Here, we present how articles are organized in the knowledge base. Overly long abstract has been appropriately shortened.

The following are explanations of each field:
| Key | Description |
|---|---|
| Title | The title of the research paper. |
| Authors | A list of contributing researchers. |
| Year | The publication year of the paper. |
| Date | The exact timestamp of the paper’s release. |
| Abstract | The abstract of the paper. |
| Category | The subject classification following the arXiv taxonomy. |
| doc_id | A unique identifier assigned for reference and retrieval. |
Auxiliary Mappings:
The mapping containing all queries and their corresponding articles is available in: data/queries.json
Each query in data/queries.json corresponds to a section or paragraph from the ground truth surveys with high citation extraction quality. The associated articles are the references cited in that part of the survey.

"origin_cites_number": 6
}
The following are explanations of each field:
| Key | Description |
|---|---|
| original_id | The identifier for the section where this query is from. |
| query_id | The ID associated with the specific query. |
| content | The content of the section. |
| prefix_titles | A hierarchical list of titles of the section/subsection/paragraph |
| prefix_titles_query | The question this passage is relevant to. The goal of the question is to retrieve relevant documents. |
| cites | A list of document IDs that are cited within this section. |
| cite_extract_rate | The ratio of extracted citations to the total number of citations in the original document. |
| origin_cites_number | The total number of citations originally present in the section. |
Note: Not every section in the ground truth surveys has a corresponding entry in queries.json. Only sections with a high citation extraction rate are included.
These entries can be used to train retrieval models, where prefix_titles_query serves as the query and cites contains the relevant document IDs.
The data in queries.json has not been pre-split into training and development sets—you may divide it manually as needed.
