Evaluation of language modeling performance aggregated across the WikiText-2, Penn Treebank (PTB3), and WikiText-103 datasets, typically measured by perplexity.

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 | Language Modeling |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | WikiText2, PTB3, WikiText103 |
| Metric | Perplexity (WikiText-2) |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Lower is better |
| Results loaded | 30 of 30 |
| 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

- [Perplexity (WikiText-2)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/language-modeling-on-wikitext-2-ptb3-and-wikitext-103.md?metric=Perplexity%20(WikiText-2)>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Perplexity (PTB3)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/language-modeling-on-wikitext-2-ptb3-and-wikitext-103.md?metric=Perplexity%20(PTB3)>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Perplexity (WikiText-103)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/language-modeling-on-wikitext-2-ptb3-and-wikitext-103.md?metric=Perplexity%20(WikiText-103)>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Average Perplexity](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/language-modeling-on-wikitext-2-ptb3-and-wikitext-103.md?metric=Average%20Perplexity>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.
