Dataset Summary
Our SRSD (Feynman) datasets are designed to discuss the performance of Symbolic Regression for Scientific Discovery. We carefully reviewed the properties of each formula and its variables in the Feynman Symbolic Regression Database to design reasonably realistic sampling range of values so that our SRSD datasets can be used for evaluating the potential of SRSD such as whether or not an SR method con (re)discover physical laws from such datasets.
This is the Easy set of our SRSD-Feynman datasets, which consists of the following 30 different physics formulas:

Dataset Structure
Data Instances
Tabular data + Ground-truth equation per equation
Tabular data: (num_samples, num_variables+1), where the last (rightmost) column indicate output of the target function for given variables.
Note that the number of variables (num_variables
) varies from equation to equation.
Ground-truth equation: pickled symbolic representation (equation with symbols in sympy) of the target function.
Data Fields
For each dataset, we have
- train split (txt file, whitespace as a delimiter)
- val split (txt file, whitespace as a delimiter)
- test split (txt file, whitespace as a delimiter)
- true equation (pickle file for sympy object)
Data Splits
- train: 8,000 samples per equation
- val: 1,000 samples per equation
- test: 1,000 samples per equation
Dataset Creation
Curation Rationale
We chose target equations based on the Feynman Symbolic Regression Database.
Annotations
Annotation process
We significantly revised the sampling range for each variable from the annotations in the Feynman Symbolic Regression Database. First, we checked the properties of each variable and treat physical constants (e.g., light speed, gravitational constant) as constants. Next, variable ranges were defined to correspond to each typical physics experiment to confirm the physical phenomenon for each equation. In cases where a specific experiment is difficult to be assumed, ranges were set within which the corresponding physical phenomenon can be seen. Generally, the ranges are set to be sampled on log scales within their orders as 10^2 in order to take both large and small changes in value as the order changes. Variables such as angles, for which a linear distribution is expected are set to be sampled uniformly. In addition, variables that take a specific sign were set to be sampled within that range.

Considerations for Using the Data
Social Impact of Dataset
We annotated this dataset, assuming typical physical experiments. The dataset will engage research on symbolic regression for scientific discovery (SRSD) and help researchers discuss the potential of symbolic regression methods towards data-driven scientific discovery.
Discussion of Biases
Our choices of target equations are based on the Feynman Symbolic Regression Database, which are focused on a field of Physics.
Other Known Limitations
Some variables used in our datasets indicate some numbers (counts), which should be treated as integer. Due to the capacity of 32-bit integer, however, we treated some of such variables as float e.g., number of molecules (10^{23} - 10^{25})
