RATIO:科学文献中跨类型构思操作的检索基准
RATIO: A Benchmark for Retrieval Across Typed Ideation Operations in Scientific Literature
AI 导读
研究者提出 RATIO 基准,将科学文献检索的相关性定义为三种"构思操作":Address 检索解决既定问题的方法、Broaden 检索更通用的表述、Specify 检索具体实例。该基准基于数百万篇 CS 全文论文构建,通过扩展话语标记远程监督并结合 LLM 与人工审核完成。实验显示,针对操作分别微调可显著提升检索器,LLM 重排序也有帮助,但仍有较大提升空间;数据、代码、模型与标注均已开源。

Abstract:Retrieved scientific literature can serve as inspiration for both human and AI scientists. Inspiration can take different forms: prior work may directly suggest how to address a problem, or surface directions at different levels of abstraction---zooming out to a more general view or zooming in to a concrete realization. We introduce RATIO (Retrieval Across Typed Ideation Operations), a large-scale benchmark in which relevance is defined by three operations which we name ideation moves: Address retrieves potential approaches for stated problems, Broaden retrieves more general formulations, and Specify retrieves concrete instantiations. RATIO is constructed from millions of full-text scientific papers across CS literature via a general recipe that extends discourse-marker distant supervision---previously used only for classification---to corpus-scale retrieval, combined with extensive LLM and human vetting. Experiments show that operation-specific fine-tuning substantially boosts retrievers and LLM reranking helps further, but much room for improvement remains. Researchers blind to condition found the fine-tuned retriever's candidates more useful as inspirations. RATIO provides a scalable training and evaluation framework for retrieval components that support literature-grounded ideation, opening up new research avenues in scientific inspiration retrieval. We release full data, code, models, and annotations.
