What is still missing

  • RMSE is lower-is-better; do not mix correlation and energy errors.
  • Conventional-function rows must retain software suffixes and scoring settings; exact common test/context needs methods review before merging Tables 1–2 into one chart.

benchmark research
review date: 2026-09-17; status: primary_comparison_table_screened; primary sources: expansion-p3-fingerprint-scoring-2022; inspected locators: Tables 1–2; Results: scoring functions; searched queries: "PMC9178954"; gaps: RMSE is lower-is-better; do not mix correlation and energy errors.; Conventional-function rows must retain software suffixes and scoring settings; exact common test/context needs methods review before merging Tables 1–2 into one chart.; claim scope: Primary-paper discovery and source inspection.

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 source-scoped record identifies the biological prediction task and holds its paper context. Preserve the existing task identity; exact split, model adaptation and scoring remain in linked evaluations or separate protocol records.; source ids: fingerprint-scoring-2022; source locator: Results and Discussion; Conclusion; cached text lines 44–46, 61; 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.; Some legacy profile Entity type facts use the generic phrase computational evaluation protocol. That boilerplate is not sufficient to establish a single fixed protocol identity or to merge this task with another protocol record.
