AILuminate
The MLCommons AILuminate benchmark assesses the safety of general chatbot gen AI systems to help guide development, inform purchasers and consumers, and support standards bodies and policymakers.
Benchmarks
Delivering open, useful measures of quality, performance and safety to help guide responsible AI development.
About MLCommons Benchmarks
The foundation for MLCommons benchmark work was derived from and builds upon MLPerf which aims to deliver a representative benchmark suite for AI/ML that fairly evaluates system performance to meet five high-level goals:
01
Enable fair comparison of competing systems while still encouraging AI innovation.
02
Accelerate AI progress through fair and useful measurement.
03
Enforce reproducibility to ensure reliable results.
04
Serve both the commercial and research communities.
05
Keep benchmarking effort affordable so all can participate.
Benchmark management
Each benchmark suite is defined by a working group community of experts, who establish the fair benchmarks for AI systems. The working group defines the AI model to run, the data set against which it gets run, sets rules on what changes to the model are allowed, and measures how fast a given hardware runs the model. By working within this AI model tripod, MLCommons AI systems benchmarks measure not only the speed of hardware, but also the quality of training data, and quality metrics of an AI model itself.
Benchmark Suites
-
AI Safety -
AlgoPerf AlgoPerf: Training Algorithms Benchmark Results
Measures how much faster we can train neural network models to a given target performance by changing the underlying training algorithm.
-
MLPerf MLPerf Client
Evaluates the performance of large language models (LLMs) and other AI workloads on personal computers–from laptops and desktops to workstations.
-
MLPerf MLPerf Inference: Datacenter
Measures how fast systems can process inputs and produce results using a trained model.
-
MLPerf MLPerf Inference: Edge
Measures how fast systems can process inputs and produce results using a trained model on edge systems.
-
MLPerf MLPerf Inference: Mobile
Measures how fast consumer mobile devices with different AI chips and software stacks can process inputs and produce results using a trained model.
-
MLPerf MLPerf Inference: Tiny
Measures how fast systems can process inputs and produce results using a trained model on ultra-low-power systems.
-
MLPerf MLPerf Storage
Measures how fast storage systems can supply training data when a model is being trained.
-
MLPerf MLPerf Training
Measures how fast systems can train models to a target quality metric.
-
MLPerf MLPerf Training: HPC
Measures how fast systems can train models to a target quality metric running on large-scale supercomputers.
How to submit MLPerf results
If you are interested in submitting MLPerf benchmark results, please join the appropriate working group. Registration deadlines are several weeks in advance of submission dates to ensure that all submitters are aware of benchmark requirements, and to ensure proper provision of all necessary resources.
- Enable fair comparison of competing systems while still encouraging AI/ML innovation.
- Accelerate AI/ML progress through fair and useful measurement.
- Enforce reproducibility to ensure reliable results.
- Serve both the commercial and research communities.
- Keep benchmarking effort affordable so all can participate.
Membership is required for most benchmark working groups (e.g., Training, Inference, Mobile). There are some public benchmark working groups that have no access requirements where non-members may submit to the benchmark by first signing a Non-member Test Agreement.
