Evaluation of recommendation performance on the MovieLens dataset, specifically measured using Recall and Normalized Discounted Cumulative Gain (NDCG) at K=20.

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 | Recommendation |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | MovieLens |
| Metric | Recall@20 |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 16 of 16 |
| 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

- [Recall@20](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/recommendation-on-movielens-recall-at-20-and-ndcg-at-20.md?metric=Recall%4020>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [NDCG@20](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/recommendation-on-movielens-recall-at-20-and-ndcg-at-20.md?metric=NDCG%4020>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
