Evaluation of model performance on the SQuAD Abstract dataset for Question Answering, specifically using the Mean per-step regret metric.

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 |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | SQuAD Abstract |
| Metric | Mean Per-Step Regret |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Lower is better |
| Results loaded | 15 of 15 |
| 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

- [Mean Per-Step Regret](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/question-answering-on-squad-abstract-mean-per-step-regret.md?metric=Mean%20Per-Step%20Regret>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.
