Evaluation of Medical Image Classification performance on a specific configuration of the DermaMNIST dataset derived from 5 synthetic annotators (K=7 agreement structure), reporting calibration and uncertainty metrics.

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 | Medical Image Classification |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | DermaMNIST m=5 synthetic annotators, K=7, mean agreement 64.7% (test) |
| Metric | ECE |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Lower is better |
| Results loaded | 26 of 26 |
| 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

- [ECE](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/medical-image-classification-on-dermamnist-m-5-synthetic-annotators-k-7-test.md?metric=ECE>): Lower is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [T Metric](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/medical-image-classification-on-dermamnist-m-5-synthetic-annotators-k-7-test.md?metric=T%20Metric>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [aECE](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/medical-image-classification-on-dermamnist-m-5-synthetic-annotators-k-7-test.md?metric=aECE>): Lower is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [cwECE](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/medical-image-classification-on-dermamnist-m-5-synthetic-annotators-k-7-test.md?metric=cwECE>): Lower is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Reliability Score (Br)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/medical-image-classification-on-dermamnist-m-5-synthetic-annotators-k-7-test.md?metric=Reliability%20Score%20(Br)>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [NLL](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/medical-image-classification-on-dermamnist-m-5-synthetic-annotators-k-7-test.md?metric=NLL>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.
