QueryProcessingEvaluator
Evaluates query understanding and processing quality. Assesses clarity, intent detection, preprocessing effectiveness, specificity, complexity, and ambiguity of input queries with configurable weights.
Overview
Evaluates query understanding and processing quality. Assesses clarity, intent detection, preprocessing effectiveness, specificity, complexity, and ambiguity of input queries with configurable weights.
Use Cases
- RAG-based question answering systems
How It Works
This scorer uses deterministic rule-based evaluation to validate outputs against specific criteria. It applies predefined rules and patterns to assess the response, providing consistent and reproducible results without requiring LLM inference.
