Rubric Judgments Lack Uncertainty: Conformal Weighting for LLM Evaluation

Licheng Pan, Haocheng Yang, Haoxuan Li +7

Rubric-based evaluation is widely used to assess large language model (LLM) outputs by decomposing quality into multiple criteria and assigning each a binary judgment from an LLM v…

Not All Criteria Matter: Importance-Aware Criteria Weighting for Rubric-Based LLM Evaluation

Haocheng Yang, Licheng Pan, Yiming Dong +7

Rubric-based evaluation assesses the responses of large language models (LLMs) by aggregating the verification results of explicit criteria, yet not all criteria matter equally. Ho…
