Evaluation of Image Classification performance using a zero-shot protocol across 10 specific datasets included in the CLIP evaluation suite, reporting individual scores for Food101, CIFAR10, CIFAR100, SUN397, Cars, Aircraft, DTD, Pets, Cal101, and Flowers, along with the 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 | Image Classification |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | CLIP Zero-shot Evaluation Suite (10 datasets) |
| Metric | Cars Accuracy |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 16 of 16 |
| 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.
