Evaluation of algorithms solving the Maximum Cut (MaxCut) problem on Barabási–Albert random graphs configured with attachment parameter m=2, using the test split. Performance is measured by metrics such as Energy, Cut value, and Best solution found.

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 | MaxCut |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Barabási–Albert m = 2 (test) |
| Metric | Energy |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Lower 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

- [Energy](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/maxcut-on-barab-si-albert-m-2-test.md?metric=Energy>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Cut Value](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/maxcut-on-barab-si-albert-m-2-test.md?metric=Cut%20Value>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Best Solution Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/maxcut-on-barab-si-albert-m-2-test.md?metric=Best%20Solution%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
