LEAP: Trajectory-Level Evaluation of LLMs in Iterative Scientific Design
LEAPBench shows trajectory scoring changes best-model rankings on 53% of tasks, LLMs do not beat Bayesian optimization, and domain-aware prompting underperforms domain-agnostic on biology tasks aligned with published literature.
