Datasets:
SciRepEval
Use SciRepEval Instead
As of December 2022, the Semantic Scholar research team recommends that you use SciRepEval instead of SciDocs for your embedding testing needs. It includes most of the SciDocs tasks as a subset, but has many more diverse tasks (classification, regression, search, nearest neighbors), a number of which are much larger and designed for training instead of evaluation. -- https://github.com/allenai/scidocs?tab=readme-ov-file#use-scirepeval-instead
Are there any plans to update?
not sure what is the difference data-wise - especially regarding the retrieval task.
thank you

Hi David!
I added an issue on it here: https://github.com/embeddings-benchmark/mteb/issues/2722
While I think we do want to update retrieval evaluation I am note sure that this dataset specifically will be the direction we will take. I will, however, give it a look.
