Benchmarks archive 2025-07-28
All 1 leaderboard whose dataset resolves to this page shown (sort by any header). "First row" is the archive's own first row at snapshot, in the archive's row order; nothing here re-ranks and metric direction is not asserted.
| First row (archive order) | Paper | Code | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Language Modelling | The Pile | Test-Time Fine-Tuning with SIFT + Llama-3.2 (3B) Bits per byte 0.557 | Efficiently Learning at Test-Time: Active Fine-Tuning of LLMs | jonhue/activeft | 39 | Compare |
Papers archive 2025-07-28
7 shown of 7 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 467. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
