Stop Guessing When to Stop Testing: Efficient Model Evaluation with Just Enough Data
Ofir Arviv, Kristjan Greenewald, Yotam Perlitz +3
The inherent rigidity of fixed-size benchmarks makes them an inefficient tool for model evaluation. Diverse evaluation objectives, including model ranking, model selection and test…
A Matter of TASTE: Improving Coverage and Difficulty of Agent Benchmarks
Tomer Keren, Nitay Calderon, Asaf Yehudai +3
As agent capabilities advance, existing benchmarks, such as -Bench, are becoming increasingly saturated. Yet constructing new benchmark tasks remains complex, costly, and lab…
Instructions Shape Production of Language, not Processing
Andreas Waldis, Leshem Choshen, Yufang Hou +1
Instructions trigger a production-centered mechanism in language models. Through a cognitively inspired lens that separates language processing and production, we reveal this mecha…
General Agent Evaluation
Elron Bandel, Asaf Yehudai, Lilach Eden +12
General-purpose agents perform tasks in unfamiliar environments without domain-specific manual customization. Yet no study has systematically measured how agent architecture shapes…
Holmes: A Benchmark to Assess the Linguistic Competence of Language Models
Andreas Waldis, Yotam Perlitz, Leshem Choshen +2
We introduce Holmes, a new benchmark designed to assess language models (LMs) linguistic competence - their unconscious understanding of linguistic phenomena. Specifically, we use…
PolySQL: Scaling Text-to-SQL Evaluation Across SQL Dialects via Automated Backend Isomorphism
Yotam Perlitz, Elad Venezian, Corentin Royer +2
SQL dialects vary in syntax, types, and functions across database engines. Text-to-SQL benchmarks, however, predominantly support only SQLite. This creates a critical evaluation ga…
