Evaluation of watermark detectability performance using AUC and True Positive Rate (TPR) on the specific test split of the C4 RealNewsLike dataset subjected to a Sub-0.5 perturbation.

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 | Watermark Detectability |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | C4 RealNewsLike (Sub-0.5) (test) |
| Metric | AUC |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 14 of 14 |
| 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

- [AUC](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/watermark-detectability-on-c4-realnewslike-sub-0-5-test.md?metric=AUC>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [TPR](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/watermark-detectability-on-c4-realnewslike-sub-0-5-test.md?metric=TPR>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
