Discrepancy review of ESM3 open (1.4B) AMFR Spearman
explained
Review of discrepancy-fed245c475fd08dc: explained.
Evidence
Source checking verifies the cited claim or transcription. It does not establish independent reproduction.
Evidence table
Inspect claims, sources and review details
Trace each statement to its source and review. A context-only reference supports the record generally; it does not verify an individual field. Source checking does not reproduce an experiment.
One row per statement and cited source. Multiple citations are not independent evaluations. Shared locators are labelled explicitly.

- rationale
- The mirror of discrepancy-f82ed80f71c6f0bd: ProteinGym zero-shot variant effect prediction ranks ESM3 above ProteinMPNN, and the only consensus study is ProteinBench's de novo backbone sequence design. Different endpoints; both kept as reported. A two-study disagreement should not fire twice (issue 205).

- method: automated-source-review; ai-assisted-source-review; reviewer: claude; reviewer note: Recorded by a Claude agent; no human review claimed.; date: 2026-10-23; method note: Read every outlier and consensus result of the finding, with its protocol, metric, configuration and source, from the published contested-result page, and compared the tasks, settings and configurations on each side. The original papers were not re-opened.; note: Records where the discrepancy stands, not a correction to any result. No result value or status was changed.
