# IPknot++

IPknot++ is a benchmark dataset released with the IPknot++ RNA secondary structure prediction paper.
It is intended as an external evaluation set rather than a training split.
A common use is to train or tune RNA secondary structure prediction models on SPOT-RNA-style splits such as [bpRNA-spot](../bprna_spot), then evaluate generalization on IPknot++.

The original release does not define train, validation, and test partitions.
The converted dataset follows the paper's benchmark blocks as four splits:

- `bprna_1m`: single-sequence structures from bpRNA-1m.
- `rfam_14_5`: single-sequence structures from Rfam 14.5.
- `rfam_14_5_ref`: Rfam 14.5 reference alignments for common-structure prediction.
- `rfam_14_5_mafft`: Rfam 14.5 MAFFT alignments for common-structure prediction.

For alignment entries, `sequence` and `secondary_structure` are taken from the corresponding single-sequence BPSEQ file, and the full alignment is stored in `aligned_ids` and `aligned_sequences`.

## Schema

| Column | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `id` | Identifier of the benchmark entry. |
| `sequence` | Ungapped RNA sequence for the benchmark target. |
| `secondary_structure` | Target secondary structure in dot-bracket notation. |
| `aligned_ids` | Sequence IDs in the alignment. Single-sequence entries contain only their own ID. |
| `aligned_sequences` | Aligned sequences, preserving gap characters. Single-sequence entries contain only the ungapped sequence. |

## Disclaimer

This is an UNOFFICIAL release of the IPknot++ benchmark dataset by Kengo Sato and Yuki Kato.

**The team releasing IPknot++ did not write this dataset card for this dataset so this dataset card has been written by the MultiMolecule team.**
