Evaluation of model efficiency characteristics (Depth, GFLOPs, Throughput) for Image Classification models tested on the CIFAR-100 dataset.

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 | Image Classification |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | CIFAR-100 |
| Metric | GFLOPs |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Lower is better |
| Results loaded | 8 of 8 |
| 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

- [GFLOPs](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/model-efficiency-on-cifar-100-image-classification.md?metric=GFLOPs>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Depth](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/model-efficiency-on-cifar-100-image-classification.md?metric=Depth>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Throughput (img/s)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/model-efficiency-on-cifar-100-image-classification.md?metric=Throughput%20(img%2Fs)>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.
