Summary: # Why LCBench constructs its numeric feature columns with a set difference. Process hash randomization can therefore change the feature order passed to the random forest, changing benchmark predictions even with the same random seed. # Changes - Preserve the declared parameter order when selecting non-logarithmic columns for both the metric and runtime surrogates. - Assert the exact numeric and logarithmic feature lists passed to both surrogate constructors. This establishes a deterministic order for new surrogate fits. Predictions can differ from historical fits that used another feature permutation; existing benchmark calibration constants and historical results are not recalculated. # Examples The numeric features are always `max_dropout`, `num_layers`, `weight_decay`, in that order, instead of a process-dependent permutation.

Summary:
Why
LCBench constructs its numeric feature columns with a set difference. Process hash randomization can therefore change the feature order passed to the random forest, changing benchmark predictions even with the same random seed.
Changes
This establishes a deterministic order for new surrogate fits. Predictions can differ from historical fits that used another feature permutation; existing benchmark calibration constants and historical results are not recalculated.
Examples
The numeric features are always
max_dropout,num_layers,weight_decay, in that order, instead of a process-dependent permutation.Differential Revision: D130805946
