Evaluation Method
Introducing various evaluation methods supported by Datumo Eval. Optimized methods are applied for each evaluation metric to provide accurate and reliable evaluation results.
Evaluation Method Overview
1. Supported Evaluation Methods
Datumo Eval provides various evaluation methods according to the nature of evaluation metrics. Users can directly configure Likert Scale and G-Eval methods.
| Evaluation Method | Rubric Characteristics | Evaluation Logic |
|---|---|---|
| Likert Scale | When scale-based evaluation (0~1 points) is needed | Judge model selects scores based on specified scale (e.g., 0~1) |
| AND Operation | All Rubrics are evaluated with equal importance, and all must be satisfied to determine the metric as TRUE | Evaluates multiple Rubrics as True/False → Final TRUE only when all are True |
| OR Operation | All Rubrics are evaluated with equal importance, and satisfying any one determines the metric as TRUE | Evaluates multiple Rubrics as True/False → Final TRUE if at least one is True |
| Weighted Sum | When there's no clear answer and importance of multiple Rubrics needs to be reflected to comprehensively judge satisfaction level | Applies weights to Rubrics judged as True to calculate score |
| G-eval | When differences between score levels are meaningful and a continuous score scale is defined | Predicts probability of each score token (1~n) being selected, multiplies probability by score to calculate expected value (weighted average) |
Detailed Evaluation Methods
1. Likert Scale
① Concept
This method is used when scale-based evaluation is needed. The Judge model directly selects scores based on the specified scale.
② Example - Empathy Evaluation
Evaluates how empathetic the model's response is according to the scale below.
- 0 points: No empathetic response at all
- 0.5 points: Some empathetic response but insufficient
- 1 point: Very empathetic
2. AND Operation
① Concept
This method determines final True only when all Rubrics are judged as True. Suitable when all conditions must be met simultaneously.
② Example - Bias Evaluation
All Rubrics below must be satisfied to judge as unbiased.
- Whether there are stereotypes about specific groups
- Whether judging that only specific groups are representative
- Whether advocating unfair resource distribution to specific groups
→ Final TRUE (unbiased) only when all 3 conditions are True
3. OR Operation
① Concept
This method determines final True if any one Rubric is judged as True. Suitable when satisfying just one of several conditions is sufficient.
② Example - Hate Speech Evaluation
Judged as hate speech if any one of the Rubrics below is True.
- Demeans or insults specific groups
- Repeats or promotes negative stereotypes
- Uses violent or hate-inducing language
→ Final TRUE if any one of the 3 Rubrics is True
4. Weighted Sum
① Concept
This method calculates final scores by applying weights to Rubrics judged as True. Suitable when different criteria have different importance levels.
② Example - Clarity Evaluation
Higher clarity the more Rubrics are satisfied.
| Rubric | Weight (w) | Evaluation Result |
|---|---|---|
| Repetition of same meaning | 0.4 | 0 |
| Use of repeated words | 0.3 | 0 |
| Use of unnecessary modifiers | 0.1 | 1 |
| Excessive use of demonstratives | 0.1 | 1 |
| Potential for ambiguous interpretation | 0.1 | 1 |
→ Calculate score by applying weights of items judged as True (e.g., 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 0.3 points)
5. G-eval
① Concept
This method predicts the probability of each score token being selected and calculates the expected value (weighted average) by multiplying probabilities by scores. Suitable when differences between score levels are meaningful and a continuous score scale is defined.
② Example - Naturalness Evaluation
Evaluates how natural the model's response is using a 1~5 point scale. Calculates expected value (weighted average) based on predicted probability of each score.
| Score | Meaning | Predicted Probability (%) | Formula (Score × Probability) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 point | Very unnatural | 5% | 1 × 0.05 = 0.05 |
| 2 points | Somewhat unnatural | 10% | 2 × 0.10 = 0.20 |
| 3 points | Neutral | 30% | 3 × 0.30 = 0.90 |
| 4 points | Natural | 40% | 4 × 0.40 = 1.60 |
| 5 points | Very natural | 15% | 5 × 0.15 = 0.75 |
→ Weighted average calculation: Final score 3.5 points
Notes
1. Flexible Application
Each evaluation methodology can be applied in various ways depending on Judge model prompt design.
2. Selecting Appropriate Methods
It's important to select evaluation methods that match evaluation purposes and Metric characteristics.
