Why This Matters For Eval Research

  • 66.7% of papers report explicit human-feedback signals, led by pairwise preferences.
  • human evaluation appears in 100% of papers in this hub.
  • Frtr-Bench is a recurring benchmark anchor for cross-paper comparisons in this page.

Protocol Takeaways

  • 1 sampled papers report both human evaluation and LLM-as-judge, supporting direct agreement checks.
  • Most common quality-control signal is gold-question checks (8.3% of papers).
  • Rater context is mostly domain experts, and annotation is commonly multi-dimensional rubrics; use this to scope replication staffing.

Benchmark Interpretation

  • Rebuttalbench appears in 8.3% of hub papers (1/12); use this cohort for benchmark-matched comparisons.

Metric Interpretation

  • accuracy is reported in 33.3% of hub papers (4/12); compare with a secondary metric before ranking methods.
  • agreement is reported in 33.3% of hub papers (4/12); compare with a secondary metric before ranking methods.

    Coverage is strong (41.7% vs 35% target).

Strengths

  • Strong human-feedback signal (66.7% of papers).
  • Contains both human-eval and LLM-as-judge protocols for head-to-head methodology comparison.

Known Gaps

  • Only 8.3% of papers report quality controls; prioritize calibration/adjudication evidence.

Suggested Next Analyses

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