Langchain Scoring Evaluator

The Scoring Evaluator instructs a language model to assess your model's predictions on a specified scale (default is 1-10) based on your custom criteria or rubric. This feature provides a nuanced evaluation instead of a simplistic binary score, aiding in evaluating models against tailored rubrics and comparing model performance on specific tasks.

Before we dive in, please note that any specific grade from an LLM should be taken with a grain of salt. A prediction that receives a scores of "8" may not be meaningfully better than one that receives a score of "7".

we can also use a scoring evaluator without reference labels. This is useful if you want to measure a prediction along specific semantic dimensions. Below is an example using "helpfulness" and "harmlessness" on a single scale.

Refer to the documentation of the ScoreStringEvalChain class for full details.
