BESS-Bench v1.0 — inspection sample
This is a stratified sample of the full BESS-Bench v1.0 dataset
matthieulel/bess-bench,
provided so that the data can be inspected without downloading the
10 GB full release. It is the sample that was made available during the
peer review of the NeurIPS 2026 paper (file unchanged).
from datasets import load_dataset
sample = load_dataset("matthieulel/bess-bench-sample", split="train")
How the sample was built
- Source. The full release (339,115 spectra, 35 columns).
- Star-level splits. The star-level partition of the full release
(
splits.csv, 1,024 train / 219 validation / 225 test stars) is used to stratify the draw. - Sampling rule (seed 42). For each of the three splits, draw 50 stars uniformly at random; for every selected star, retain at most 20 spectra. Union over the three splits.
- Result. 1,976 spectra (0.6 % of the corpus) from 150 stars
(692 train / 685 validation / 599 test rows), with the split
membership stored in an additional
splitcolumn.
The schema, dtypes, column semantics and metadata conventions are
identical to the full release; only the rows are subsampled. No
spectrum is altered. The known issues of v1.0 documented in the card of
the full release apply to the sample as well: 4 of its rows have a
wavelength array in nm instead of Å.
Reproducing the sample
The build script is scripts/build_review_sample.py in the
code repository.
