EurekaBench: Measuring Agentic Ability to Discover New Scientific Insights

Excerpt

arXiv:2610.00492v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When Isaac Newton discovered the law of gravitation, he did so through an iterative process of analyzing observed data such as planetary patterns, finding the underlying mechanisms by describing patterns in mathematical equations, and refining his theory against the Moon's orbit, revealing the startling insight that the same force governs both falling apples and orbiting planets. Would it be possible for AI agents to make similar discoveries? To
