DeltaML-Bench (ARG, 4 x 6h): leaderboard
DeltaML-Bench (2026) gives ML agents 48 tasks drawn from research papers: improve the published baseline inside the original, imperfect open-source repository, with audits that invalidate specification gaming. This board is the per-run success rate in percent with the search-based ARG scaffold and four 6-hour runs per task; higher is better.
Metric: Per-run success rate (%; four independent runs of 6 hours per task; ARG scaffold; 48 tasks from research papers in five ML domains, each requiring the agent to beat the published baseline inside the original imperfect repository; a run succeeds when the audited solution improves on the baseline, and runs flagged as specification gaming are invalidated). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Rough model projection: around 2026. 2 models tracked.
