# SupraBench

**SupraBench** is the first benchmark for evaluating large language models on **supramolecular host-guest chemistry** reasoning. It comprises four fundamental tasks plus an auxiliary vision task, and ships a domain text corpus for domain-adaptive pretraining (DAPT).

Supramolecular chemistry studies non-covalent host-guest assemblies that underpin drug delivery, chemical sensing, and in-vivo toxin sequestration. Designing host-guest systems is slow (days of dry-lab verification per pair); SupraBench probes whether LLMs can reason about these systems directly.

- 💻 **Code:** [https://github.com/Tianyi-Billy-Ma/SupraBench](https://github.com/Tianyi-Billy-Ma/SupraBench)
- 🤗 **All datasets:** [https://huggingface.co/SupraBench](https://huggingface.co/SupraBench)

## The dataset family

| Dataset | Task | Description |
|---|---|---|
| [`SupraBench/bap`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/SupraBench/bap) | Binding Affinity Prediction | regress log K_a for a host-guest pair |
| [`SupraBench/tbs`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/SupraBench/tbs) | Top-Binder Selection | pick the strongest binder among 4 candidate guests |
| [`SupraBench/sid`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/SupraBench/sid) | Solvent Identification | 6-way solvent classification from structure |
| [`SupraBench/hgd`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/SupraBench/hgd) | Host-Guest Description | open-ended QA on host/guest property profiles |
| [`SupraBench/EU-PMC`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/SupraBench/EU-PMC) | Text corpus | 16M-token supramolecular corpus for DAPT |
| [`SupraBench/Binding-Affinity`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/SupraBench/Binding-Affinity) | Comprehensive anchor | per-record binding data + host/guest SMILES, 2D, 3D, environment |

Each task dataset has a `test` split (merged records) and a `cb7` split (the CB[7] supplement, for add-on evaluation). Each `base`/`fewshot`/`cot` rendering is tagged by the `prompt_strategy` field.

## Sample Usage

As documented in the official repository, you can run a task against a model using the `main.py` entry point:

```bash
uv run python src/main.py \
    --task-config  configs/tasks/bap_base.yaml \
    --model-config configs/models/openrouter_qwen35_27b.yaml \
    --output-dir   outputs/
```

## Dataset statistics

| Task | # Samples |
|---|---|
| BAP | 2,609 |
| TBS | 2,264 |
| SID | 2,172 |
| HGD | 135 |

Top-4 hosts (BAP / TBS / SID counts): CB[8] 261/200/571, CB[7] 217/200/217, beta-CD 201/200/264, p-SC4 144/144/225.

`SupraCorpus` (EU-PMC): 420,950 raw filtered articles -> 133,867 high-precision articles -> ~16M tokens.

## Performance report

Main results from the SupraBench paper across the four fundamental tasks (8 LLMs x 3 prompting strategies). **Bold** = best, *italic* = second-best per column.
