Where this comes from
Each bar is one model, with its most independent recorded score. Hatched bars are vendor-reported; the word beside each bar says who ran it. Settings and dates differ between rows; the Scores table below has every result.

Where this comes from
Scores from different settings, harnesses or dates are not directly comparable; the row says which. Sorted by score, highest first, as a reading aid, not a ranking.
