Evaluation of Structural Erasure performance on the WMDP bio dataset, reporting metrics including CAD, AS-C, and AS-NC.

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 | Structural Erasure |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | WMDP bio |
| Metric | CAD |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Lower 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

- [CAD](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/structural-erasure-on-wmdp-bio.md?metric=CAD>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [AS-C](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/structural-erasure-on-wmdp-bio.md?metric=AS-C>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [AS-NC](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/structural-erasure-on-wmdp-bio.md?metric=AS-NC>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.
