analyze-leaderboard-dynamics

Purpose

Analyze leaderboard score distributions, compression or saturation, anomalies, selective reporting, and regime shifts.

Input contract

required: [leaderboard_records, metric_schema, time_or_version_field]
optional: [evaluation_protocols, source_quality, method_metadata]
constraints: [scores require task, metric, condition, source, and observation provenance]

Procedure

1. Normalize scores and evaluation conditions into comparable groups. 2. Inspect distributions, rank movement, compression, and missingness. 3. Identify anomalies, selective reporting, and regime changes. 4. State whether additional evidence is continuing, near-saturated, or saturated.

Output contract

produces: [leaderboard_distribution, regime_segments, anomaly_report, saturation_assessment]
delta_fields: [findings, evidence_updates, uncertainties, decisions]

Quality gates

• Every reported regime or anomaly must cite the records and comparison basis.
• Do not compare scores across incompatible protocols without an explicit limitation.

Failure and counterexamples

Do not treat rank order as progress when metric definitions or evaluation conditions changed; preserve ties and missing observations.
