OpenVLA-OFT paper
Where this comes from
Every score names who ran it: vendor-reported, maintainer-run or independent. A rank is shown with the population it was ranked in (gap rule 3).
Lineage
finetune
Llama 2 is the parent (finetune)high confidencepress claimOpenVLA-OFT is a child (finetune)high confidencepress claimWhere this comes from
Parent and child relations from model cards, Hugging Face base_model fields and the genealogy tables of the research notes. The tree shows two generations each way, 4 models. Confidence and evidence are the notes' own.
