Evaluation of Symbolic Regression performance on the Material Science subset of the LLM-SRBench dataset, reporting metrics such as Best reward and LLM calls.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Symbolic Regression |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | LLM-SRBench matsci |
| Metric | Best Reward |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 16 of 16 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [Best Reward](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/symbolic-regression-on-llm-srbench-matsci.md?metric=Best%20Reward>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [LLM Calls](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/symbolic-regression-on-llm-srbench-matsci.md?metric=LLM%20Calls>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.
