Evaluation of model performance on the WebQA dataset specifically for text-to-text retrieval tasks, measured using Recall@5.

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 | Text-to-Text Retrieval (qt -\> Ct) |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | WebQA |
| Metric | Recall@5 |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 4 of 4 |
| 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@5](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/text-to-text-retrieval-on-webqa.md?metric=Recall%405>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
