Bootstrap Confidence Intervals for LLM Evaluation

Introduction As Large Language Models (LLMs) move from research prototypes to production systems, the developers of these systems need rigorous performance evaluation. In particular, we need confidence intervals around estimates of system accuracy. However, LLMs introduce a challenge that is unusual for ML systems: they are (operationally) non-deterministic. Even with the temperature set to zero, […]
