Evaluation of model performance on solving Sudoku puzzles drawn from the 'Out Of Distribution' set, measured using Avg@128 and Pass@128 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 | Puzzle Solving |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Sudoku Out Of Distribution |
| Metric | Average @128 |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 12 of 12 |
| 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

- [Average @128](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/puzzle-solving-on-sudoku-out-of-distribution.md?metric=Average%20%40128>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Pass Rate @128](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/puzzle-solving-on-sudoku-out-of-distribution.md?metric=Pass%20Rate%20%40128>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
