# Transfer Stability Score (TSS)

The Transfer Stability Score measures how well a model generalizes stability reasoning across different regimes.

---

# Definition

TSS = mean(F1_transfer)

Where F1_transfer represents F1 scores from cross-regime tests.

---

# Interpretation

High TSS indicates that a model has learned general instability reasoning.

Low TSS suggests the model relies on dataset-specific correlations.

---

# Relationship to CSS

CSS measures average performance across datasets.

TSS measures generalization between regimes.

Both metrics should be reported when evaluating models on the Clarus Clinical Stability Benchmark.
