Why This Matters For Eval Research

  • 26.2% of papers report explicit human-feedback signals, led by pairwise preferences.
  • simulation environments appears in 100% of papers in this hub.
  • ALFWorld 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 adjudication (2.4% 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 9.5% of hub papers (4/42); use this cohort for benchmark-matched comparisons.
  • WebArena appears in 9.5% of hub papers (4/42); use this cohort for benchmark-matched comparisons.

Metric Interpretation

  • cost is reported in 11.9% of hub papers (5/42); compare with a secondary metric before ranking methods.
  • pass@1 is reported in 9.5% of hub papers (4/42); compare with a secondary metric before ranking methods.
Researcher Checklist (Expanded)

Researcher Checklist

  • Gap: Papers with explicit human feedback

    Coverage is a replication risk (26.2% vs 45% target).

  • Gap: Papers reporting quality controls

    Coverage is a replication risk (2.4% vs 30% target).

  • Strong: Papers naming benchmarks/datasets

    Coverage is strong (40.5% vs 35% target).

  • Strong: Papers naming evaluation metrics

    Coverage is strong (42.9% vs 35% target).

  • Gap: Papers with known rater population

    Coverage is a replication risk (2.4% vs 35% target).

  • Strong: Papers with known annotation unit

    Coverage is strong (57.1% vs 35% target).

Strengths

  • Most papers provide measurable evaluation context (40.5% benchmarks, 42.9% metrics).
  • Contains both human-eval and LLM-as-judge protocols for head-to-head methodology comparison.
  • Agentic evaluation appears in 100% of papers.

Known Gaps

  • Only 2.4% of papers report quality controls; prioritize calibration/adjudication evidence.
  • Rater population is under-specified (2.4% coverage).
  • LLM-as-judge appears without enough inter-annotator agreement reporting.

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 cost and pass@1.
  • Add inter-annotator agreement checks when reproducing these protocols.
