# ANSER-Bench: A Comprehensive Benchmark for Analytical Search

[中文说明](README_zh.md)

[Paper (arXiv, coming soon)](https://arxiv.org/abs/XXXX.XXXXX) · [Code (GitHub, coming soon)](https://github.com/your-org/your-repo)

ANSER-Bench is a multilingual, multi-domain benchmark for **analytical search**. Rather than evaluating whether a system can find a relevant document, it evaluates whether the system can retrieve, filter, compute over, or synthesize a given corpus, and produce answers traceable to the critical evidence.

The benchmark contains **2,235 tasks** in Chinese and English across law, finance, and scientific research. Tasks are organized by analytical objective:

- **Descriptive:** extract facts, calculate statistics, compare, rank, or synthesize evidence from observed records.
- **Predictive:** use only information available before a specified cutoff to predict subsequent outcomes or assess historical associations.
- **Prescriptive:** apply statutes, rules, or precedents to stated facts and explain the reasoning.

## Repository Layout and Quick Start

```text
benchmark/
  science/                         # English scientific-research tasks
  finance/zh/, finance/en/         # Chinese and English finance tasks
  legal/zh/, legal/en/             # Chinese and English legal tasks
corpora/
  science/                         # Scientific articles in JSONL
  finance/zh/, finance/en/         # Financial reports, audit rules, and regulations
  legal/zh/, legal/en/             # Decisions, statutes, English cases, and precedents
```

Each task file is a JSON array. A complete system should:

1. retrieve from the corpus paired with the task using its `query` and `instruction`;
2. filter evidence, issue structured queries, compute, or reason over the retrieved material;
3. return the requested answer and identifiers for the retrieved evidence; and
4. be evaluated by comparing its answer with `ground_truth` and its evidence with `evidence`.

### Preventing Answer Leakage

`ground_truth` and `evidence` in task JSON files are annotation and evaluation data. **They must not be provided wholesale to the system under evaluation.** This release removes the `extra` field from all task records; its former evaluation-only auxiliary information is not public system input. Evaluators should expose only fields such as:

```json
{
  "id": "legal_en_descriptive_1",
  "type": "sql",
  "query": "Within the APA-review caseload, how many cases met this condition: the matter was remanded to the agency?",
  "instruction": "Return the number of distinct cases satisfying all conditions as an integer."
}
```

and task metadata that has been verified not to reveal the answer. Keep `ground_truth` and `evidence` on the scorer side only. Likewise, finance records with `split = "ground_truth"` must never be indexed for system retrieval.

## Dataset Overview

| Domain | Language | Descriptive | Predictive | Prescriptive | Total |
|---|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| Law | Chinese | 200 | 100 | 100 | 400 |
| Law | English | 200 | 95 | 57 | 352 |
| Finance | Chinese | 300 | 200 | 100 | 600 |
| Finance | English | 300 | 200 | 300 | 800 |
| Scientific research | English | 20 | 63 | — | 83 |
| **Total** | Chinese and English | **1,020** | **658** | **557** | **2,235** |

## Common Task Schema

Every task contains at least the following fields:

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `id` | Unique task identifier. Preserve it in logs, submissions, and reproduced experiments. |
| `type` | Subtask type. Some tasks use `null`; in those cases, follow the constraints in `instruction`. |
| `query` | Natural-language analytical question presented to the system. |
| `instruction` | Required output format, information boundary, and evidence requirements. |
| `evidence` | Annotated critical evidence, used only by the scorer. Its element format varies by domain. |
| `ground_truth` | Reference answer. It may be numeric, textual, or a structured object. |

We recommend one independent output record per task, so that answers and evidence remain distinct:

```json
{
  "id": "task ID",
  "answer": "The requested answer; a JSON object for structured tasks",
  "retrieved_evidence": [
    {"type": "corpus-unit type", "id": "corpus primary key"}
  ]
}
```

For legal statistical tasks, `retrieved_evidence` must contain the set of case IDs ultimately included in the calculation, not merely a few apparently relevant text chunks. For answers that cite regulations, include the regulation or provision name as well as the evidence ID whenever possible.

## Evaluation Metrics

Each task group reports the metrics specified below. Metrics for different response forms must be reported separately; do not collapse them into a single raw score. Standardize only superficial formatting before scoring, without changing answer meaning.

### Scientific-Research Tasks

Both scientific descriptive and predictive tasks report the same metric suite.

|---|---|---|---|
| Descriptive | `Token-F1`, `BERTScore-F1`, `LLM Judge` | `Recall@5`, `Precision@5` | `Latency`, `Token Usage` |
| Predictive | `Token-F1`, `BERTScore-F1`, `LLM Judge` | `Recall@5`, `Precision@5` | `Latency`, `Token Usage` |

### LLM Judge

Where listed, `LLM Judge` is a result-only 0–100 score. The evaluator receives only `query`, `instruction`, `ground_truth`, and `answer`; it must not use evidence, external knowledge, or any other auxiliary information. Use **GPT-5.6 Sol** with `reasoning effort = high`, the Chinese prompt for Chinese answers and the English prompt for English answers, `temperature=0`, one evaluation per task, and retain the complete JSON output.

## Evidence Reporting

- For task groups using `Recall@5`, `Precision@5`, `R-Precision`, or `MRR`, return a ranked `retrieved_evidence` list using the task–corpus mapping above.
- For task groups using `Set Precision`, `Set Recall`, and `Set F1`, the complete `retrieved_evidence` list is treated as the final population, separately from the numeric answer. The population unit is a case for legal descriptive/predictive tasks and a company for financial descriptive statistical tasks.
- Use the evidence identifiers and corpus primary keys specified in the task–corpus mapping. Do not mix identifiers across corpora or tables.

## End-to-End Efficiency Evaluation

For every task group, report:

- **Latency:** end-to-end wall-clock latency from receipt of `{id, query, instruction}` to a parseable answer and evidence output.
- **Token Usage:** input, output, and total tokens used by the evaluated system, including evidence text passed to a model.
- **Reproducibility log:** task `id`, timestamps, model/version, retriever, per-call token usage, tool calls, final `answer`, `retrieved_evidence`, and error status.

Report LLM-judge latency, tokens, and model version separately as evaluation overhead; do not include them in the evaluated system's latency or token usage.
