Evaluation of model utility preservation performance using the R-Retain metric on the specific retain set subset of the MUSE-Books Harry Potter dataset.

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 | Utility Preservation |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | MUSE-Books Harry Potter (retain set) |
| Metric | R-Retain |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 13 of 13 |
| 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

- [R-Retain](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/utility-preservation-on-muse-books-harry-potter-retain-set.md?metric=R-Retain>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
