Supports multiple comparison strategies (exact match, fuzzy matching, embedding-based similarity) configurable per metric.
Unique: Implements multiple comparison strategies (exact, fuzzy, semantic, LLM-based) in a unified interface, allowing users to choose trade-offs between speed and accuracy; supports multiple valid answers per query for flexible ground truth specification
vs alternatives: More flexible than single-strategy evaluation; enables cost-conscious teams to use fast string matching for obvious cases while reserving LLM-based comparison for ambiguous answers
Evaluates retrieval quality using unsupervised metrics (context precision, context recall, context relevance) that measure whether retrieved documents are relevant to the query without requiring ground truth labels. Uses LLM-as-judge to score context relevance and implements statistical measures for precision/recall based on query-context similarity. Enables evaluation of retrieval pipelines independently from answer generation.
Unique: Implements unsupervised retrieval metrics that work without ground truth labels, using LLM-as-judge for relevance scoring and statistical measures for precision/recall; enables independent evaluation of retrieval quality separate from answer generation
vs alternatives: Unique advantage over supervised-only frameworks in enabling retrieval evaluation without expensive ground truth labeling; allows teams to optimize retrieval independently from generation quality
Detects hallucinations in generated answers by scoring faithfulness — whether the answer is grounded in retrieved context using LLM-as-judge evaluation. Implements a two-stage scoring process: first extracting factual claims from the answer, then verifying each claim against context. Returns per-claim faithfulness scores enabling identification of specific hallucinated statements rather than binary hallucination detection.
Unique: Implements fine-grained per-claim faithfulness scoring rather than binary hallucination detection, enabling identification of specific hallucinated statements and their severity; uses two-stage LLM-as-judge approach (claim extraction then verification) for interpretable scoring
vs alternatives: More granular than simple hallucination classifiers; per-claim scoring enables debugging and targeted improvement of generation quality, while two-stage approach provides interpretability unavailable in end-to-end hallucination detectors
