Not to be confused with [Language model benchmark](/source/Language_model_benchmark).

**LiveBench** is a continuously running [benchmark](/source/Benchmark_(computing)) project for assessing the quality of [protein structure prediction](/source/Protein_structure_prediction) and [secondary structure prediction](/source/Protein_structure_prediction#Secondary_structure) methods. LiveBench focuses mainly on [homology modeling](/source/Homology_modeling) and [protein threading](/source/Protein_threading) but also includes [secondary structure prediction](/source/Protein_structure_prediction#Secondary_structure), comparing publicly available [webserver](/source/Webserver) output to newly deposited [protein structures](/source/Protein_structure) in the [Protein Data Bank](/source/Protein_Data_Bank). Like the [EVA](/source/EVA_(benchmark)) project and unlike the related [CASP](/source/CASP) and [CAFASP](/source/CAFASP) experiments, LiveBench is intended to study the accuracy of predictions that would be obtained by non-expert users of publicly available prediction methods. A major advantage of LiveBench and EVA over CASP projects, which run once every two years, is their comparatively large data set.
