DRNoise - Conditional Deference: leaderboard

Conditional deference on DRNoise (2026): among the deep-research tasks an agent answers correctly in the clean corpus, the percent whose answer after a misleading document is seeded equals the planted false value. Lower is better.

Metric: Conditional deference (%; share of the tasks a model answered correctly in the clean condition whose noisy-condition answer equals the designated false value from the seeded document; 100 deep-research tasks whose unique gold answer must be recovered from two corroborating indirect record chains, run in a fixed BrowseComp-Plus search-only ReAct agent (top-5 dense retrieval, 512-token snippets, up to 100 iterations); mean of three runs; lower is better). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around 2035. 5 models tracked.
