    Epoch Capabilities Index update adopts Bayesian model methodology

    Epoch Capabilities Index (ECI) update adopts Bayesian model methodology, providing more reliable estimates of model capability uncertainty and the probability of comparing capabilities between models. The new method is based on four-parameter logistic (4PL) item response theory (IRT), using Claude 3.5 Sonnet (ECI 130) and GPT-5 (ECI 150) as anchor models, and achieves cross-temporal consistency through linear transformations to fix parameter location and scale.
