Evaluation of Out-of-Distribution (OOD) Detection performance on the test split of the Penn Treebank (PTB) Words corpus, typically measured using AUROC, AUPR, and FPR90.

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 | OOD Detection |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Penn Treebank (PTB) Words (test) |
| Metric | FPR@90 |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Lower is better |
| Results loaded | 2 of 2 |
| 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

- [FPR@90](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/ood-detection-on-penn-treebank-ptb-words-test.md?metric=FPR%4090>): Lower is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [AUROC](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/ood-detection-on-penn-treebank-ptb-words-test.md?metric=AUROC>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [AUPR](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/ood-detection-on-penn-treebank-ptb-words-test.md?metric=AUPR>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
