Evaluation methodology

MS/MS spectrum plus a candidate set; rank the matching molecule. MCES molecular clusters are grouped into fixed training, validation and test folds, stratified by acquisition metadata. Cross-fold molecular bond-edit distance is at least 10; all spectra follow the assigned molecular fold. Mean hit rate at configured top-k cutoffs, with optional MCES distance for the top-ranked candidate. Maximum common edge subgraph (MCES) clustering keeps molecules connected by a bond-edit distance below 10 in the same fold. The split additionally balances instrument, collision-energy, adduct and molecule-frequency metadata; this is stronger than simply separating 2D InChIKeys.

Evaluation design

Benchmarks bring together tasks and protocols. A task describes the biological question; a protocol defines a particular test.

These source-backed links do not make different protocols or scores interchangeable.

Published comparisons

Explore the results reported under one evaluation protocol. Each figure keeps its source, dataset and metric together; it is not a ranking across studies.

Scope and limitations
  • Source metric equations define hit rates as fractions, while table values use percentage scale; recorded values are not rescaled.
  • Zero generation accuracy is a reported result, not missingness.
  • No checkpoint revision inferred from method name.
  • Bootstrap CIs reflect resampling of this test set; not independently reproduced and not seed standard deviations.
  • Full table retained, including weaker/random methods and unavailable formula-simulation similarity cells.

historical missing metadata

metadata review scope
historical_missing_metadata preserves the original discovery state. Current descriptive evidence and missingness are recorded in profile.facts; numerical-result review is separate.
legacy kinds
benchmark
entity classification
review date: 2026-09-17; rationale: This record identifies the biological prediction question or a suite-specific task, rather than a uniquely fixed evaluated procedure. Preserve its task identity and leave split, model adaptation and scoring details on linked protocols/evaluations.; source ids: src-discovery-pluskal-lab-massspecgym; evidence-benchmark-massspecgym-retrieval-base-py; source locator: Pinned README: three challenges; dataset and DataModule; evaluation base classes; pinned massspecgym/models/retrieval/base.py evaluation methods; ambiguities: A paper- or suite-specific task may constrain some inputs or metrics; that alone does not make it interchangeable with a complete versioned protocol. No protocol equivalence is inferred.
