Evaluation of Object Detection performance on the test-dev split of the MS COCO 2018 dataset, measured using standard COCO Average Precision metrics (AP, AP50, AP75, and size-specific APs).

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 | Object Detection |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | MS COCO 2018 (test-dev) |
| Metric | AP |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 4 of 4 |
| 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

- [AP](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/object-detection-on-ms-coco-2018-test-dev.md?metric=AP>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [AP50](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/object-detection-on-ms-coco-2018-test-dev.md?metric=AP50>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [AP75](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/object-detection-on-ms-coco-2018-test-dev.md?metric=AP75>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [AP Small](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/object-detection-on-ms-coco-2018-test-dev.md?metric=AP%20Small>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [AP Medium](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/object-detection-on-ms-coco-2018-test-dev.md?metric=AP%20Medium>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [AP Large](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/object-detection-on-ms-coco-2018-test-dev.md?metric=AP%20Large>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
