ScholScan (Text Input) - Data Handling and Preprocessing: leaderboard

Metric: Flaw-detection score (0-1, scaled to 0-100): per question, zero unless the model finds the annotated scientific error, otherwise the geometric mean of evidence-location Dice and reasoning-chain prefix match, times a penalty for unrelated errors listed, as extracted by a GPT-4.1 evaluator, averaged over the data handling and preprocessing questions of ScholScan's 1,800 expert-reviewed questions that ask a model to scan a whole academic paper (ICLR 2024-2025 and Nature Communications, 715 papers) for a planted or reviewer-reported scientific flaw without being told where to look, with the paper given as Tesseract OCR text; higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Estimated already saturated. 15 models tracked.
