SurveyReview

A Reviewer-Aligned Benchmark for Survey Evaluators

SurveyReview is a reviewer-aligned benchmark for evaluating survey papers. It converts real peer-review reports into multidimensional evaluation labels and rationales, allowing models to be tested against how human reviewers judge survey quality.

Version

• v1.0/: the original SurveyReview release for paper reproduction.
• v1.1/: the updated release using cleaned article texts.

The benchmark focuses on four survey-review dimensions: Readability, Criticalness, Comprehensiveness, and Structure. It provides standardized train/test splits, article metadata, prompt files, and an API-based evaluation pipeline.

Quick Start

Create an environment and install dependencies:

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Configure the API client:

cp .env.example .env

Then edit .env:

API_KEY=your-api-key-here
BASE_URL=https://api.openai.com/v1
MODEL_NAME=gpt-5.2
JUDGE_MODEL=gpt-5.2
EVALUATE_REASONS=True

Run the default test-set evaluation:

python src/api_base_evaluate.py

Run on the train split:

EVAL_SPLIT=train python src/api_base_evaluate.py

Outputs are written to result/<timestamp>/:

File	Description
results.csv	MSE, MAE, accuracy, and sample counts for each dimension.
predictions_<dimension>.jsonl	Per-sample prediction records.
run_config.json	Runtime configuration and split statistics.
rqs_<dimension>.json	Rationale quality results when EVALUATE_REASONS=True.

Leaderboard(v1.0)

Lower MSE/MAE is better. Higher HAS/RQS is better.

Notes

• v1.0/ contains the original SurveyReview release and v1.0-paper data for paper reproduction.
• v1.1/ contains the updated release using cleaned article texts.
• Article files are split into JSON shards to stay within GitHub file-size limits.
• Both releases keep the SurveyReview evaluation style: MSE/MAE plus optional RQS. If you only want to verify the pipeline, set EVALUATE_REASONS=False to skip the judge-model stage.
