Why This Matters For Eval Research

  • 100% of papers report explicit human-feedback signals, led by rubric ratings.
  • automatic metrics appears in 36.4% of papers in this hub.
  • Onemillion-Bench is a recurring benchmark anchor for cross-paper comparisons in this page.

Protocol Takeaways

  • Most common quality-control signal is inter-annotator agreement reporting (9.1% of papers).
  • Rater context is mostly domain experts, and annotation is commonly multi-dimensional rubrics; use this to scope replication staffing.
  • Compare papers that report both human_eval and llm_as_judge to quantify judge-human agreement drift.

Benchmark Interpretation

  • Onemillion-Bench appears in 9.1% of hub papers (1/11); use this cohort for benchmark-matched comparisons.
  • Scholareval appears in 9.1% of hub papers (1/11); use this cohort for benchmark-matched comparisons.

Metric Interpretation

  • accuracy is reported in 9.1% of hub papers (1/11); compare with a secondary metric before ranking methods.
  • agreement is reported in 9.1% of hub papers (1/11); compare with a secondary metric before ranking methods.

Suggested Next Analyses

  • Compare papers that report both human_eval and llm_as_judge to quantify judge-human agreement drift.
  • Stratify by benchmark (Onemillion-Bench vs Scholareval) before comparing methods.
  • Track metric sensitivity by reporting both accuracy and agreement.
