GroundednessEvaluator Class

Definition

An IEvaluator that evaluates the 'Groundedness' of a response produced by an AI model.

Remarks

GroundednessEvaluator measures the degree to which the response being evaluated is grounded in the information present in the supplied GroundingContext. It returns a NumericMetric that contains a score for the 'Groundedness'. The score is a number between 1 and 5, with 1 indicating a poor score, and 5 indicating an excellent score.

Note: GroundednessEvaluator is an AI-based evaluator that uses an AI model to perform its evaluation. While the prompt that this evaluator uses to perform its evaluation is designed to be model-agnostic, the performance of this prompt (and the resulting evaluation) can vary depending on the model used, and can be especially poor when a smaller / local model is used.

The prompt that GroundednessEvaluator uses has been tested against (and tuned to work well with) the following models. So, using this evaluator with a model from the following list is likely to produce the best results. (The model to be used can be configured via ChatClient.)
