TaskEvolving Deep Research (Agent, Assigned Topic): leaderboard
TaskEvolving (Wang, Chen et al., 2026) evolves 500 NQ-Open questions into verifiable deep research tasks, each a graph of atomic steps with fact-grounded rubric checkpoints scored by a Qwen3.7-Max judge. In this setting the model searches the web with Google search and page scraping tools and receives only a declarative research title. Score is the percentage of rubric points met; higher is better.
Metric: Rubric score (%; fact-grounded pointwise checkpoints of 500 evolved deep research tasks, evidential plus analytical, judged by Qwen3.7-Max; agent mode with Google search and web scraping tools; assigned-topic query: a declarative research title). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around February 2027. 10 models tracked.
