Description

SciEntsBank is a benchmark dataset of human-annotated student science short answers and semantic-correctness labels used to develop and evaluate automated short-answer assessment systems.

Components

  • SciEntsBank Test_UD evaluation split for confidence estimation in ASAG: SciEntsBank is described as "a widely used benchmark dataset for ASAG containing nearly 11,000 student responses to 197 science questions across 15 domains". The study uses the Test_UD split with 4,562 responses (1,917 correct, 2,645 incorrect), treating correct responses as positive and grouping all remaining labels as incorrect. The split was further divided into a 10% calibration subset and a 90% held-out test subset via stratified sampling. Its diverse error types make it suitable for studying confidence estimation.
