Results and statuses

A run joins the leaderboard when it is complete and matched: 46,875 updates and 49.152B input tokens, all 189 validation events, all six full CORE-22 events, and a cumulative compute audit within 2% of the anchor. Every segment must have been trained in formal mode with the admitted configuration.

The record (results/runs/<method>.json) publishes:

  • the periodic validation BPB at every scheduled step and the independent final BPB, separately;
  • CORE at the six events, with all 22 task scores;
  • the input tokens and the average and cumulative theoretical training compute, with its deviation from the anchor;
  • the protocol, model, tokenizer, data and source fingerprints;
  • notes on provenance whenever the run was trained from a frozen source revision.

Its audit (evidence/audits/<method>.json) records the checks and the data layout (number of ranks, microbatch and accumulation). Records describe the protocol, not the machines: they contain no host names, paths or device names. Missing measurements are null, never zero.

Status Meaning
planned Registered for future work
implementation_pending Being implemented
calibration_pending Implemented; the grid has not met the budget yet
preflight_passed Admitted within 1%; ready for a formal run
running A formal run is in progress
matched Complete, with every event and an accepted cumulative audit
budget_mismatch Cumulative compute outside 2%
protocol_mismatch A controlled input or event differs from the protocol
incomplete_eval Training finished but evaluation events are missing
failed The attempt ended unsuccessfully; it stays on record

Only a complete, accepted run is matched. Historical SSSL results, failed runs and earlier accounting formulas are preserved without rewriting their scores or fingerprints.

All runs are single-seed and were trained on different machines and rank counts; orderings are observations, not statistical results. Compute values are comparable only under the same accounting: the leaderboard marks the historical matrix-FLOPs estimate and the frozen replay accounting separately.
