How the values are distributed

Across the 102 numeric entries in this window the median is 992 and the mean is 975, so the typical entry sits 251 below the leader. The window spans 526 to 1243.

105152142126
8 equal buckets between the smallest (526) and largest (1243) value; numbers under bars are entry counts.

51 of 102 entries are at or above the median, and the top three hold 4% of the combined value — read it against the metric below, since a higher number is not "better" for every dataset.

Who publishes these entries

The source dataset for this family does not publish a provider or creator label per entry, so AI Battle cannot group them: the table above is the complete published list. Where the dataset does carry a label (model, gateway and tool families do), this section names the creators and how many entries each holds.

Metric reference

This ranking carries the metrics appearances, ciDelta, ciLower, ciUpper, elo, pricePer1kImages, rank, rankLower, rankUpper, storedRank from the Arena Elo dataset in the tab::text-to-image family. Units and the direction of "better" are not declared by the source dataset, so AI Battle does not invent them: values are shown exactly as published, and the ordering is the source dataset's own.

How this ranking is built

Rebuilt on from the public dataset Arena Elo (family tab::text-to-image). The source lists 102 entries and all 102 are shown here. AI Battle requests the dataset's rows, keeps the ordering the source publishes, and computes only the statistics on this page: median, mean, spread, the #1–#2 gap, the creator breakdown and the raw-data file. Nothing on this page is generated text about the entries — the numbers come from the source.

Refresh cadence: every deploy re-pulls the dataset, so this page tracks the source's own update cycle. Corrections: see the methodology page.
