LiveBench
Open-knowledge reference entry
LiveBench is a continuously running benchmark project for assessing the quality of protein structure prediction and secondary structure prediction methods. LiveBench focuses mainly on homology modeling and protein threading but also includes secondary structure prediction, comparing publicly available webserver output to newly deposited protein structures in the Protein Data Bank. Like the EVA project and unlike the related CASP and CAFASP experiments, LiveBench is intended to study the accuracy of predictions that would be obtained by non-expert users of publicly available prediction methods. A major advantage of LiveBench and EVA over CASP projects, which run once every two years, is their comparatively large data set.

“LiveBench” enters the record as open-knowledge reference entry. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what LiveBench, Open-knowledge and entry can confirm, complicate or overturn.
Why this record matters
“LiveBench” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, LiveBench, Open-knowledge and entry provides the most credible route into that argument.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Oct 5, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q6654550. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2001 and 1110.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
How to read it
Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
