Evaluation of Classification performance on the adults dataset, focusing on fairness metrics across income, race, and gender subgroups.

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 | Classification |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | adults |
| Metric | Performance (Income) |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 4 of 4 |
| 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

- [Performance (Income)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/classification-on-adults-fairness-metrics.md?metric=Performance%20(Income)>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Performance (Race)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/classification-on-adults-fairness-metrics.md?metric=Performance%20(Race)>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Performance (Gender)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/classification-on-adults-fairness-metrics.md?metric=Performance%20(Gender)>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
