SetGo: Metadata Readiness for Scientific AI Datasets

Scientific datasets intended for AI use require both computational readiness for model training and metadata readiness for discovery, sharing, and reuse. The Readiness Engine for Data Integration (REDI) addresses computational readiness, but no corresponding tool evaluates whether a dataset’s metadata are sufficiently complete, governed, and standards-compliant for publication and agent-based consumption. Existing FAIR assessors operate only on published repository records, and no single system covers FAIR compliance, licensing, provenance, governance, reproducibility, and catalog readiness together. We present SetGo, an open-source Python toolkit that assesses and repairs metadata readiness across these six dimensions before a dataset is published or archived. Applied to four scientific corpora, SetGo surfaces deficiencies that general-purpose tools do not detect: ERA5 climate metadata scores 4% on ACDD 1.3 compliance; materials datasets fail OPTIMADE species-definition requirements; and PDB-derived proteomics data carries licensing terms incompatible with standard SPDX identifiers. Guided enrichment raises overall FAIR scores from 52–57% to 81–91%, and a single setgo publish command pushes to Hugging Face Hub, CKAN, or OpenMetadata with ML Commons Croissant 1.0 metadata sidecars. To support interactive and automated workflows, SetGo integrates with coding agents powered by large language models (LLMs) through a /setgo skill that enables natural-language execution of the full assess–enrich–publish loop, with user involvement limited to supplying missing metadata values.

Curating AI-Ready Datasets for Equity and Environmental Justice: A Data-Centric AI Case Study

An equitable and environmentally just community is essentialin order to avoid disproportionate burden borne by vulnerablecommunities. This need becomes pressing in the aftermathof an extreme event such as disaster or hazard when it is diffi-cult for the governing bodies to implement resource allocationas per the need. Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms canhelp surface Equity and Environmental Justice (EEJ) issueswhen trained on EEJ datasets. However, curating AI-readyEEJ training datasets is challenging due to differences in fac-tors such as heterogeneity, resolution, modality, and level ofexpertise in labeling. Additionally, EEJ issues involve sensi-tive information where uncertainties and errors could degradethe performance of AI algorithms. For eg. Error in seasonalcrop yield information can highly affect the prediction of an-nual crop yield. To address these challenges, Data-centricAI (DCAI) methods are employed, which enhance AI algo-rithm performance even with limited training samples. DCAIprioritizes data quality, thereby reducing the adverse effectsof uncertainties and errors during the model training process.This research proposes a novel dataset and benchmark for an-alyzing the effect of the Maui Wildfire of 2023 for Equityand Environmental Justice (EEJ) issues. The proposed datasetaligns with the concepts of DCAI such as annotation quality,data preprocessing, privacy, feature engineering, governanceand provenance. We firmly believe that the proposed datasetwould lay a foundation to implement robust and reliable mod-ern AI algorithms for addressing EEJ issues.

Dataset of Generative AI Workload Power Profiles

This dataset provides a collection of high-resolution (5/10 Hz or every 0.2/0.1 seconds) power consumption profiles for generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) workloads executed on NLR's High Performance Computing (HPC) platform Kestrel. The dataset also includes examples of representative whole-facility power profiles generated using a bottom-up, event-driven, data center energy model . This dataset is designed to support research in energy modeling, infrastructure planning, energy system integration, and sustainability analysis for AI-driven computing systems. The dataset captures time-resolved electrical power measurements across a diverse set of configurations, including variations in job type (inference vs. training), workload (LLM vs. image generation), datasets, and number of compute nodes. Power traces are provided in a standardized format and include both raw/instantaneous and aggregated files. Each profile is accompanied by metadata describing workload parameters, enabling reproducibility and cross-study comparison. The dataset is intended for use in applications such as data center infrastructure planning, energy modeling, demand response and grid impact studies, and development and validation of system-level simulation tools. By making these workload-specific power profiles publicly available, this dataset aims to address the current lack of open, empirical energy data for generative AI systems and to facilitate transparent, reproducible research on the energy and environmental impacts of large-scale AI deployment. If you use this dataset, please cite the associated publication: Vercellino et al., “Measurement of Generative AI Workload Power Profiles for Whole-Facility Data Center Infrastructure Planning,” arXiv:2604.07345 (2026).

Machine Learning meets Algebraic Combinatorics: A Suite of Benchmark Datasets to Accelerate AI for Mathematics Research

The use of benchmark datasets has become an important engine of progress in machine learning (ML) over the past 15 years. Recently there has been growing interest in utilizing machine learning to drive advances in research-level mathematics. However, off-the-shelf solutions often fail to deliver the types of insights required by mathematicians. This suggests the need for new ML methods specifically designed with mathematics in mind. The question then is: what benchmarks should the community use to evaluate these? On the one hand, toy problems such as learning the multiplicative structure of small finite groups have become popular in the mechanistic interpretability community whose perspective on explainability aligns well with the needs of mathematicians. While toy datasets are a useful benchmark for initial work, they lack the scale, complexity, and sophistication of many of the principal objects of study in modern mathematics. To address this, we introduce a new collection of benchmark datasets, Algebraic Combinatorics Benchmarks (ACBench), representing either classic or open problems in algebraic combinatorics, a subfield of mathematics that studies discrete structures arising from abstract algebra. After describing the datasets, we discuss the challenges involved in constructing “good” mathematics benchmarks, describe baseline model performance, and discuss some of the insights these datasets can provide that may be of interest even to those who are not interested in mathematics research itself.

Cryo2StructData: A Large Labeled Cryo-EM Density Map Dataset for AI-based Modeling of Protein Structures

The advent of single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has brought forth a new era of structural biology, enabling the routine determination of large biological molecules and their complexes at atomic resolution. The high-resolution structures of biological macromolecules and their complexes significantly expedite biomedical research and drug discovery. However, automatically and accurately building atomic models from high-resolution cryo-EM density maps is still time-consuming and challenging when template-based models are unavailable. Artificial intelligence (AI) methods such as deep learning trained on limited amount of labeled cryo-EM density maps generate inaccurate atomic models. To address this issue, we created a dataset called Cryo2StructData consisting of 7,600 preprocessed cryo-EM density maps whose voxels are labelled according to their corresponding known atomic structures for training and testing AI methods to build atomic models from cryo-EM density maps. Cryo2StructData is larger than existing, publicly available datasets for training AI methods to build atomic protein structures from cryo-EM density maps. We trained and tested deep learning models on Cryo2StructData to validate its quality showing that it is ready for being used to train and test AI methods for building atomic models.

A FAIR and AI-ready Higgs boson decay dataset

Abstract To enable the reusability of massive scientific datasets by humans and machines, researchers aim to adhere to the principles of findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability (FAIR) for data and artificial intelligence (AI) models. This article provides a domain-agnostic, step-by-step assessment guide to evaluate whether or not a given dataset meets these principles. We demonstrate how to use this guide to evaluate the FAIRness of an open simulated dataset produced by the CMS Collaboration at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. This dataset consists of Higgs boson decays and quark and gluon background, and is available through the CERN Open Data Portal. We use additional available tools to assess the FAIRness of this dataset, and incorporate feedback from members of the FAIR community to validate our results. This article is accompanied by a Jupyter notebook to visualize and explore this dataset. This study marks the first in a planned series of articles that will guide scientists in the creation of FAIR AI models and datasets in high energy particle physics.

Creating Benchmark Data for Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Space Biology Research

To identify an appropriate AI/ML approach for a specific problem, the best practice is to measure algorithm performance through the benchmarking process. A scientific benchmark consists of an AI-ready dataset and a reference implementation on a specific scientific question. The NASA Science Mission Directorate (SMD) has started the “Benchmark Initiative for AI/ML to create scientific benchmark datasets in three applications: 1) scientific benchmarking, which finds the best algorithm for a specific problem; 2) application benchmarking, which measures algorithm performance against a set of parameters; and 3) system benchmarking, which evaluates performance of hardware and software architecture. Currently, there are no standardized datasets available to benchmark AI/ML algorithms in the domain of space biology. In this work, we constructed two AI/ML-ready biological datasets from experiments in space-flown mice: cellular imaging and RNA-seq. First, radiation-exposed immune cells harbor DNA damage foci that can be fluorescently marked to visualize the amount of damage following exposure to ionizing radiation. However, such large datasets are difficult to analyze visually, due to imaging inconsistencies and human bias, and classical image processing approaches can fail on imaging artifacts. AI/ML are therefore exciting alternative, providing the speed of machines and the accuracy of humans. We have made this dataset available at https://registry.opendata.aws/bps_microscopy/. Second, high-throughput nucleic acid sequencing (DNA-seq, RNA-seq) has become widespread in biomedical research due to the growing availability and affordability of these assays. However, most sequencing datasets suffer from high dimensionality and low sample count. In this work, we used a generative adversarial network to synthesize a standardized, AI-ready, publicly available benchmark dataset for space biology RNA-seq data with sufficient space-flown and ground control mouse liver samples from NASA GeneLab. This dataset is available at https://registry.opendata.aws/bps_rnaseq/. These datasets are now fully open the Space Biology community to test their favorite AI/ML approaches.

The high explosives & affected targets (HEAT) dataset

Artificial Intelligence (AI) surrogate models offer a computationally efficient alternative to full-physics simulations, yet no existing datasets are publicly available for training, testing, and validation of machine learning models of the dynamics of high-explosive driven shocks through multiple materials. Shock propagation through materials is a computationally challenging problem because simulations must include material-specific equations of state (EOS) along with descriptions of other physical processes such as plastic deformation, phase change, damage processes, fluid instabilities, and multi-material interactions. Shocks are typically initiated by high-velocity impacts or explosive loading. The latter case necessitates the addition of models of reactive materials to represent high-explosive (HE) detonation. Here, to address the lack of an expansive dataset for multi-material shock propagation in the AI/ML community, we present the High-Explosives and Affected Targets (HEAT) Dataset. HEAT is a physics-rich collection of two-dimensional, cylindrically symmetric, simulations generated using an Eulerian, multi-material, shock-propagation code developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory. The dataset includes two partitions: (1) the expanding shock-cylinder (CYL) simulations, Figs. 1, and (2) the Perturbed Layered Interface (PLI) simulations, Fig. 2. Entries in both partitions consist of time series of arrays of thermodynamic fields (pressure, density, and temperature), kinematic fields (position and velocity), and additional fields that depend on thermodynamic and/or kinematic fields (e.g., material stress). Materials in the CYL partition include solids (aluminium, copper, depleted uranium, stainless steel, tantalum, and a generic polymer), a liquid (water), gases (air, nitrogen), and a generic detonating material (high explosive, HE). The PLI partition spans a highly varying geometry but consists of fixed materials across entries: Copper, aluminium, stainless steel, generic polymer, and generic HE. HEAT captures critical phenomena such as momentum transfer, shock propagation, plastic deformation, and thermal effects, making HEAT a valuable benchmark for development of AI/ML emulation of multi-material shock propagation.

Bridging the Gap Between Astronomical Datasets: From Proof-of-Concept to AI Model Deployment with Domain Adaptation

Artificial Intelligence is transforming astrophysics, from studying stars and galaxies to analyzing cosmic large-scale structures. However, a critical challenge arises when AI models trained on simulations or past observational data are applied to new observation— leading to domain shifts, reduced robustness, and increased uncertainty of model predictions. This talk will explore these issues, highlighting examples such as galaxy morphology classification and cosmological parameter inference, where AI struggles to adapt across different datasets. We will discuss domain adaptation as a strategy to improve model generalization and mitigate biases—essential for making AI-driven discoveries reliable. Notably, these challenges extend beyond astrophysics, affecting AI applications across physics and other scientific domains. Addressing them is essential for maximizing AI’s impact in advancing scientific research.
