AI总结:

针对多项选择题存在的选项ID偏好与随机猜测问题,本文构建全开放式问题基准Open-LLM-Leaderboard,以更真实评估GPT-4o、Claude 3等LLM能力。

摘要:

多项选择题(MCQ)常被用于评估大型语言模型(LLM)。通常,LLM会收到一个问题,并在针对长度等因素进行调整后,选择被认为最可能的答案。遗憾的是,由于先验不平衡概率的固有偏差,LLM可能天生偏好某些答案选项ID,例如A/B/C/D,从而影响基于这些ID的答案预测。此前的研究提出了通过在少量测试样本上简单地排列选项并应用于新样本来减少这种“选择偏差”的方法。MCQ的另一个问题是通过“随机猜测”获得彩票式选择。LLM并未学习特定知识,却猜对了选项。这种情况对于小规模LLM尤其严重。为解决这些问题,一种更彻底的方法是从MCQ转向开放式问题,这可以从根本上消除选择偏差和随机猜测问题。然而,这种转变也带来了一系列挑战:(1)识别合适的开放式问题;(2)对照人工标注的真值验证LLM开放式回答的正确性。本工作旨在应对这些重大困难,并通过完全开放式的问题建立新的LLM评估基准。因此,我们推出Open-LLM-Leaderboard,以追踪各种LLM的表现并反映其真实能力,例如GPT-4o/4/3.5、Claude 3、Gemini等。我们的代码和数据集可在https://github.com/VILA-Lab/Open-LLM-Leaderboard获取。

英文摘要:

Multiple-choice questions (MCQ) are frequently used to assess large language models (LLMs). Typically, an LLM is given a question and selects the answer deemed most probable after adjustments for factors like length. Unfortunately, LLMs may inherently favor certain answer choice IDs, such as A/B/C/D, due to inherent biases of priori unbalanced probabilities, influencing the prediction of answers based on these IDs. Previous research has introduced methods to reduce this ''selection bias'' by simply permutating options on a few test samples and applying to new ones. Another problem of MCQ is the lottery ticket choice by ''random guessing''. The LLM does not learn particular knowledge, but the option is guessed correctly. This situation is especially serious for those small-scale LLMs. To address them, a more thorough approach involves shifting from MCQ to open-style questions, which can fundamentally eliminate selection bias and random guessing issues. However, transitioning causes its own set of challenges in (1) identifying suitable open-style questions and (2) validating the correctness of LLM open-style responses against human-annotated ground-truths. This work aims to tackle these significant difficulties, and establish a new LLM evaluation benchmark through entirely open-style questions. Consequently, we introduce the Open-LLM-Leaderboard to track various LLMs' performance and reflect true capability of them, such as GPT-4o/4/3.5, Claude 3, Gemini, etc. Our code and dataset are available at https://github.com/VILA-Lab/Open-LLM-Leaderboard.
