Evaluation of models performing Volatility Forecasting specifically on the test split of the S&P 500 Realized Volatility dataset, assessed using R-squared metrics comparing against significance (Sig), variance (VSig), and the HAR benchmark.

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 | Volatility Forecasting |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | S&P 500 Realized Volatility (test) |
| Metric | R2 (Sig) |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 54 of 54 |
| 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

- [R2 (Sig)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/volatility-forecasting-on-s-and-p-500-realized-volatility-test.md?metric=R2%20(Sig)>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [R2 (VSig)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/volatility-forecasting-on-s-and-p-500-realized-volatility-test.md?metric=R2%20(VSig)>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [R2 (HAR)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/volatility-forecasting-on-s-and-p-500-realized-volatility-test.md?metric=R2%20(HAR)>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.
