Evaluation of algorithms for Area-oriented circuit optimization applied to the Average Improvement SMIC 12nm dataset, measured by Area, Delay, and Power.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Area-oriented circuit optimization |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Average Improvement SMIC 12nm |
| Metric | Area Improvement (%) |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Lower is better |
| Results loaded | 3 of 3 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [Area Improvement (%)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/area-oriented-circuit-optimization-on-average-improvement-smic-12nm.md?metric=Area%20Improvement%20(%25)>): Lower is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Delay Improvement (%)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/area-oriented-circuit-optimization-on-average-improvement-smic-12nm.md?metric=Delay%20Improvement%20(%25)>): Lower is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Power Improvement (%)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/area-oriented-circuit-optimization-on-average-improvement-smic-12nm.md?metric=Power%20Improvement%20(%25)>): Lower is better; unit: PERCENT.
