Researcher Quick Triage

This hub is best used for protocol triage and replication planning from abstract-level evidence. Quality band: High .

Analysis blocks below are computed from the currently loaded sample (60 of 273 total papers in this hub).

High-Signal Coverage

100.0%

60 / 60 sampled papers are not low-signal flagged.

Replication-Ready Set

16

Benchmark + metric + eval mode explicitly present.

Judge/Human Comparability

3

Papers containing both `human_eval` and `llm_as_judge`.

  • 16 papers are replication-ready (benchmark + metric + explicit evaluation mode).
  • 3 papers support judge-vs-human agreement analysis.
  • 6 papers report explicit quality controls (calibration/adjudication/IAA).

Primary action: Start with the top 2 papers in “Start Here”, then validate assumptions in the protocol matrix.

Why This Matters For Eval Research

  • 33.9% of papers report explicit human-feedback signals, led by pairwise preferences.
  • simulation environments appears in 44% of papers in this hub.
  • ALFWorld is a recurring benchmark anchor for cross-paper comparisons in this page.

Protocol Takeaways

  • 2 sampled papers report both human evaluation and LLM-as-judge, supporting direct agreement checks.
  • Most common quality-control signal is inter-annotator agreement reporting (1.8% of papers).
  • Rater context is mostly domain experts, and annotation is commonly trajectory-level annotation; use this to scope replication staffing.

Benchmark Interpretation

  • ALFWorld appears in 3.4% of hub papers (6/273); use this cohort for benchmark-matched comparisons.
  • WebArena appears in 2.9% of hub papers (5/273); use this cohort for benchmark-matched comparisons.

Metric Interpretation

  • accuracy is reported in 24.7% of hub papers (43/273); compare with a secondary metric before ranking methods.
  • cost is reported in 6.9% of hub papers (12/273); compare with a secondary metric before ranking methods.
Researcher Checklist (Expanded)

Researcher Checklist

  • Moderate: Papers with explicit human feedback

    Coverage is usable but incomplete (33.9% vs 45% target).

  • Gap: Papers reporting quality controls

    Coverage is a replication risk (5.2% vs 30% target).

  • Moderate: Papers naming benchmarks/datasets

    Coverage is usable but incomplete (25.9% vs 35% target).

  • Strong: Papers naming evaluation metrics

    Coverage is strong (55.7% vs 35% target).

  • Gap: Papers with known rater population

    Coverage is a replication risk (17.8% vs 35% target).

  • Moderate: Papers with known annotation unit

    Coverage is usable but incomplete (25.9% vs 35% target).

Strengths

  • Contains both human-eval and LLM-as-judge protocols for head-to-head methodology comparison.
  • Agentic evaluation appears in 50.6% of papers.

Known Gaps

  • Only 5.2% of papers report quality controls; prioritize calibration/adjudication evidence.
  • Rater population is under-specified (17.8% coverage).

Suggested Next Analyses

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