AI总结:

本文提出用自然语言“成绩单”定性评估大语言模型,并设计了基于特异性、忠实性和可解释性的评估框架及无监督迭代生成算法,实验表明其能提供超越传统基准的见解。

摘要:

大语言模型(LLMs)的快速发展和动态特性使得传统的定量基准难以准确评估其能力。我们提出成绩单(report cards),即针对特定技能或主题的模型行为的人类可解释自然语言摘要。我们开发了一个框架,基于三个标准来评估成绩单:特异性(区分模型的能力)、忠实性(准确表示模型能力)和可解释性(对人类的清晰度和相关性)。我们还提出了一种无需人工监督即可生成成绩单的迭代算法,并通过消融各种设计选择来探索其有效性。通过对流行的大语言模型进行实验,我们证明成绩单提供了超越传统基准的见解,并有助于满足对LLMs进行更具可解释性和整体性评估的需求。

英文摘要:

The rapid development and dynamic nature of large language models (LLMs) make it difficult for conventional quantitative benchmarks to accurately assess their capabilities. We propose report cards, which are human-interpretable, natural language summaries of model behavior for specific skills or topics. We develop a framework to evaluate report cards based on three criteria: specificity (ability to distinguish between models), faithfulness (accurate representation of model capabilities), and interpretability (clarity and relevance to humans). We also propose an iterative algorithm for generating report cards without human supervision and explore its efficacy by ablating various design choices. Through experimentation with popular LLMs, we demonstrate that report cards provide insights beyond traditional benchmarks and can help address the need for a more interpretable and holistic evaluation of LLMs.
