Dataset Summary

CARDBiomedBench is a biomedical question-answering benchmark designed to evaluate Large Language Models (LLMs) on complex biomedical tasks. It consists of a curated set of question-answer pairs covering various biomedical domains and reasoning types, challenging models to demonstrate deep understanding and reasoning capabilities in the biomedical field.

Data Fields

question: string - The biomedical question posed in the dataset.
answer: string - The corresponding answer to the question.
bio_category: string - The biological category or categories associated with the question. Multiple categories are separated by a semicolon (;).
reasoning_category: string - The reasoning category or categories associated with the question. Multiple categories are separated by a semicolon (;).
uuid: string - Unique identifier for the question-answer pair.
template_uuid: string - Unique identifier of the original template question from which this instance was derived.
