Evaluation of Question Answering performance on the Pop-QA Cities 20 dataset, measured using custom quality metrics including Factual Accuracy, Completeness, Relevance, Clarity, and Binary Accuracy.

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 | Question Answering Evaluation |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Pop-QA Cities 20 |
| Metric | Factual Accuracy |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 10 of 10 |
| 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

- [Factual Accuracy](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/question-answering-on-pop-qa-cities-20-custom-metrics.md?metric=Factual%20Accuracy>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Completeness](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/question-answering-on-pop-qa-cities-20-custom-metrics.md?metric=Completeness>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Relevance](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/question-answering-on-pop-qa-cities-20-custom-metrics.md?metric=Relevance>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Clarity](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/question-answering-on-pop-qa-cities-20-custom-metrics.md?metric=Clarity>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Binary Accuracy](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/question-answering-on-pop-qa-cities-20-custom-metrics.md?metric=Binary%20Accuracy>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
