随着大型语言模型(LLM)越来越多地被考虑用于自动评估和反馈,理解LLM评分何时有效至关重要。我们评估了LLM作为评判者在三种物理评估格式——结构化问题、书面论文和科学图表——中的评分表现,比较了GPT-5.2、Grok 4.1、Claude Opus 4.5、DeepSeek-V3.2、Gemini Pro 3以及委员会聚合在盲评、提供解决方案、错误解决方案和锚定条件下的结果。我们区分了绝对准确性和排序一致性,因为评分系统可以匹配人类评分的分布,但未能按质量对回答进行排序。在不同任务类型中,性能表现出强烈的任务依赖性。对于盲评大学考试问题(n=771)以及中学和大学结构化问题(n=1151),模型与人类评分者显示出稳健的排序一致性(Spearman ρ > 0.6),官方解决方案减少了误差并加强了一致性。错误解决方案降低了绝对准确性,表明模型依赖于提供的参考,但排序一致性保持不变。论文评分的行为根本不同。在n=55份答卷(n=275篇论文)中,盲评AI评分比人类评分更严厉且变异性更大,添加评分方案并未改善排序一致性。锚定范例将AI均值移近人类均值,并将方差压缩到低于人类标准差,但排序一致性仍接近零。对于基于代码的图表元素(n=1400),模型实现了高排序一致性(ρ > 0.84)和近乎线性的校准。在所有任务类型中,有效性取决于评估任务的结构——即评分可以映射到明确、可观察的评分特征的程度——以及人类基准的可靠性,而非原始模型能力。
英文摘要:
As large language models (LLMs) are increasingly considered for automated assessment and feedback, understanding when LLM marking is valid is essential. We evaluate LLM-as-a-judge marking across four settings spanning three assessment formats - structured questions, written essays, and scientific plots - comparing GPT-5.2, Grok 4.1, Claude Opus 4.5, DeepSeek-V3.2, Gemini 3 Pro, and committee aggregations against human markers under blind, solution-provided, false-solution, and anchored conditions. We distinguish absolute accuracy from rank-order agreement, since a marking system can match the distribution of human marks while failing to order responses by quality. Across task types, performance is sharply task-dependent. For blind university exam questions ($n=771$) and secondary and university structured questions ($n=1151$), models show robust rank-order agreement with human markers (Spearman $ρ> 0.6$), with official solutions reducing error and strengthening agreement. False solutions degrade absolute accuracy, showing that models defer to provided references, but leave rank-ordering intact. Essay marking behaves fundamentally differently. Across $n=55$ scripts, each containing five essays ($n=275$ essays total), blind AI marking is harsher and more variable than human marking and adding marking guidance does not improve rank-order agreement. Anchored exemplars shift the AI mean close to the human mean and compress variance below the human standard deviation, but rank-order agreement remains near-zero. For code-based plot elements ($n=1400$), models achieve high rank-order agreement ($ρ> 0.83$) with near-linear calibration. LLM marking validity depended strongly on the assessment task, and this held for every contemporary model tested. The results also show that the reliability of the human benchmark constrains the claims that can be made about AI-human agreement.
