Evaluation of model performance focusing on selecting the appropriate scaling configuration during test time, using the Quality-Priority variant of the RouterBench dataset. Metrics include Reward, Accuracy, and Cost.

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 | Test-Time Scaling Selection |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | RouterBench Quality-Priority |
| Metric | Reward |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| 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

- [Reward](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/test-time-scaling-selection-on-routerbench-quality-priority.md?metric=Reward>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [Accuracy](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/test-time-scaling-selection-on-routerbench-quality-priority.md?metric=Accuracy>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Cost](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/test-time-scaling-selection-on-routerbench-quality-priority.md?metric=Cost>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.
