Reproducing the evaluation datasets

All datasets used in this project are generated using the scripts located in the src/scripts folder. To reproduce a dataset, run the corresponding script with the following command

uv run src/scripts/<name-of-script>.py

Replace with the specific script you wish to execute, e.g.,

uv run src/scripts/create_allocine.py
