Evaluation of Machine Unlearning effectiveness on the test split of the DermaMNIST dataset, specifically using a subset where 20% of the data was removed prior to training/unlearning, measured using metrics like Specificity, Recall, BAC, and MIA.

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 | Machine Unlearning |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | DermaMNIST 20% removal binary (test) |
| Metric | Specificity |
| 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.

## Metrics

- [Specificity](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/machine-unlearning-on-dermamnist-20-percent-removal-binary-test.md?metric=Specificity>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Recall](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/machine-unlearning-on-dermamnist-20-percent-removal-binary-test.md?metric=Recall>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Balanced Accuracy (BAC)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/machine-unlearning-on-dermamnist-20-percent-removal-binary-test.md?metric=Balanced%20Accuracy%20(BAC)>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [AUC](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/machine-unlearning-on-dermamnist-20-percent-removal-binary-test.md?metric=AUC>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [UBAC](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/machine-unlearning-on-dermamnist-20-percent-removal-binary-test.md?metric=UBAC>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [RBAC](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/machine-unlearning-on-dermamnist-20-percent-removal-binary-test.md?metric=RBAC>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [TBAC](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/machine-unlearning-on-dermamnist-20-percent-removal-binary-test.md?metric=TBAC>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [MIA](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/machine-unlearning-on-dermamnist-20-percent-removal-binary-test.md?metric=MIA>): Lower is better; unit: PERCENT.
