PepBenchmark: A Standardized Benchmark for Peptide Machine Learning

arXiv:2604.10531v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Peptide therapeutics are widely regarded as the "third generation" of drugs, yet progress in peptide Machine Learning (ML) are hindered by the absence of standardized benchmarks. Here we present PepBenchmark, which unifies datasets, preprocessing, and evaluation protocols for peptide drug discovery. PepBenchmark comprises three components: (1) PepBenchData, a well-curated collection comprising 29 canonical-peptide and 6 non-canonical-peptide data
