$ how the score was worked out · Epoch AI — internal evaluatio… 50%, deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 model… 27%, CodeReviewQA: The Code Review… 8% and 5 more

Each result implies a score on its own, after adjusting for how hard its test is and who ran it. The score is their weighted average, with a small pull toward the middle for thinly tested models. Each test's weight is its counts column above; here it's added up by who ran the tests. How it works

$ quantization evidence · 27 measurements

How much of the full-precision result a quantized version kept, measured within one study. Rows from the same study share a table and aren't independent.
