Understand how AI systems are tested, scored, and compared. Learn to distinguish a useful evaluation result from a number that does not transfer to your workload.
Terms beginning with E
15 termsEdge-case set
Edge-case set is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
Evaluations and benchmarksElo rating
Elo rating is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation case
Evaluation case is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation criterion
Evaluation criterion is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation dataset
An evaluation dataset is a collection of cases used to assess a system against defined criteria. For an AI application, it can include inputs, expected behavior, reference answers, grading information, and the context needed to reproduce each case.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation harness
An evaluation harness is the software and configuration that runs an evaluation consistently. It typically loads cases, invokes a system, applies grading rules, records metrics, and produces results that can be compared across versions.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation metric
An evaluation metric is a defined calculation used to summarize how a system performs against an evaluation criterion. The calculation can compare predictions with references, classify outcomes, measure latency or cost, or combine several signals.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation objective
Evaluation objective is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation plan
Evaluation plan is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation question
Evaluation question is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation reproducibility
Evaluation reproducibility is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation scenario
Evaluation scenario is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation scope
Evaluation scope is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
Evaluations and benchmarksEvaluation versioning
Evaluation versioning is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
Evaluations and benchmarksExpected calibration error
Expected calibration error is a defined lens for examining AI system behavior with a stated task, evidence, and interpretation rule.
