Evaluation of fMRI Brain Encoding performance on the test split of the Natural Scenes Dataset (NSD) 7T configuration, reporting subject-specific scores (S1, S2, S5, S7) and an average.

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 | fMRI Brain Encoding |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Natural Scenes Dataset (NSD) 7T (test) |
| Metric | Subject 1 Score |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 5 of 5 |
| 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.
