OLMo 2 32B. It wins 1 of the 2 coding tests both models report; Apertus 70B Instruct wins none, and 1 is a tie.

How do you compare the two?

We use the 8 benchmark tests both models have published scores on. The verdict counts the 6 tests in the eight capability areas, and a gap under one point (ten on rating-style scales) counts as a tie. The other 2 are listed but not counted, because several are summary scores or repeat a test. Each score is the one shown on the model's own page.
