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.
