# CGBench Dataset

This repository contains the CGBench dataset - a comprehensive benchmarking framework for evaluating scientific reasoning in language models using ClinGen (clinicalgenome.org) data. The dataset enables evaluation of language models' ability to extract, interpret, and explain fine-grained results from scientific publications in clinical genetics.

## Dataset Overview

CGBench formulates three separate tasks:
1. **GCI Evidence Extraction** - Gene-disease association evidence extraction
2. **VCI Evidence Scoring** - Variant pathogenicity evidence scoring  
3. **VCI Evidence Sufficiency** - Evidence sufficiency determination
