Notice: This website is continuously updated as new conference proceedings and journal volumes are published. Consequently, the figures presented here may differ from those reported in our publications.


A brief overview of our methodology is provided on the Methods page, along with references to publications documenting our approach and links to the code and data used in each study.


The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates.

Research Type Experimental Evaluation results show a MAP value of 86.54, which is 21 points absolute above the baseline. and Evaluation and Results Settings We train an SVM classifier (Joachims 1999) on the 249 examples as described above, where each example is one question answer pair. For the evaluation, we use leave-one-thread-out cross validation, where each time we exclude and use for testing one of the 71 questions together with all its answers. We report Accuracy, Precision, Recall, and F1 for the classification setting. We also calculate Mean Average Precision (MAP).
