Abstract
Scientific processes are often described in heterogeneous article discourse, with details needed for comparison, reproducibility, reuse, and automation dispersed across prose, tables, figures, protocols, and supplementary files. We present the first release of this http URL, a multidisciplinary collection of 16 expert-annotated schemas spanning Biology & Biotechnology, Materials & Chemistry, Imaging & Measurement, Physics, and Psychology. Each schema defines reusable fields for describing process instances, including inputs, outputs, materials, instruments or software, parameters, conditions, procedural steps, measurements, and provenance-related information. The schemas were created through a human-in-the-loop schema-mining workflow in which large language models generated candidate structures from process specifications, scientific articles, and expert feedback, followed by domain-expert construction of final master schemas. The dataset contains final schemas in JSON Schema and SHACL formats, intermediate model-generated schemas, expert-feedback records, source-paper metadata, community-development materials, and analysis scripts. Technical validation assessed schema structure, development provenance, expert review, and syntactic conformance. The collection supports structured annotation, metadata enrichment, scientific knowledge graphs, information extraction, semantic publishing, and cross-study comparison.
