New RAG Benchmark Launched for Drug Discovery PPIs

Researchers have introduced RAGPPI, a new benchmark designed to evaluate Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems for identifying the biological impacts of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) in drug discovery. The benchmark consists of 4,420 question-answer pairs, with a gold-standard subset of 500 pairs created through expert annotation and a silver-standard set generated using an ensemble auto-evaluation LLM. RAGPPI aims to advance RAG systems for drug discovery applications by providing a dedicated resource for this specific task. AI

    RAGPPI: RAG Benchmark for Protein-Protein Interactions in Drug Discovery

    arXiv:2505.23823v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Retrieving the biological impacts of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) is essential for target identification (Target ID) in drug development. Given the vast number of proteins involved, this process remains time-consuming and…
