Evaluation of model performance on instruction following using the AlpacaEval 2 dataset, measured by Win Rate (WR) and Length Consistency (LC).

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 | Instruction Following Evaluation |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | AlpacaEval 2 |
| Metric | Win Rate |
| 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.

## Metrics

- [Win Rate](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/instruction-following-evaluation-on-alpacaeval-2.md?metric=Win%20Rate>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Length Consistency](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/instruction-following-evaluation-on-alpacaeval-2.md?metric=Length%20Consistency>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
