RAGEval: Scenario Specific RAG Evaluation Dataset Generation Framework
[](https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3109/)
[](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2408.01262)
## Introduction
RAGEval is a novel framework designed for automatically generating evaluation datasets to assess the knowledge usage ability of different Large Language Models (LLMs) in various Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) scenarios. Unlike existing RAG benchmarks that focus on general knowledge, RAGEval enables the creation of domain-specific factual queries, allowing for a more nuanced evaluation of RAG systems across different vertical domains.
## News
- **[2024/8/31]** We have released our evaluation method at the ``rageval/evaluation`` folder.
- **[2024/8/25]** We have released our DragonBall dataset at the ``dragonball_dataset`` folder. The RAGEval pipeline is coming soon!
## Key Features
1. 🏗️ **Flexible Schema Generation**: Summarizes a schema from seed documents to capture domain-specific knowledge structures.
2. 🔄 **Diverse Document Generation**: Uses the schema to generate varied configurations and subsequently diverse documents across multiple domains.
3. ❓ **Comprehensive QA Pair Creation**: Constructs question-answering pairs based on generated documents and configurations.
4. 📊 **Novel Evaluation Metrics**: Introduces three new metrics - Completeness, Hallucination, and Irrelevance - for a more thorough assessment of RAG model responses.
5. 🌐 **Multi-Domain Support**: Covers various domains including finance, legal, and medical sectors in both Chinese and English languages.
## Components
1. **Schema Summary**: Extracts domain-specific knowledge structures from seed documents.
2. **Document Generation**: Creates diverse, factually rich documents based on the schema.
3. **QRA (Question-Reference-Answer) Generation**: Produces comprehensive evaluation triples.
4. **DRAGONBall Dataset**: A diverse RAG benchmark covering multiple domains and languages.
5. **Evaluation Metrics**: Novel metrics for assessing RAG system performance.
## Usage
The Usage and the remaining code is coming soon!
## Experiments
RAGEval has been used to benchmark various LLMs and RAG configurations:
- Compared performance of 9 popular open/closed-source generation models
- Evaluated different retrieval models (BM25, GTE-Large, BGE-Large, BGE-M3)
- Analyzed impact of hyperparameters like TopK retrieval and chunk size
## Results
- GPT-4o showed the best overall performance, but open-source models like Llama3-8B-Instruct demonstrated competitive results.
- Language-specific optimization in retrieval models proved crucial for performance.
- Hyperparameter tuning revealed important trade-offs between retrieval accuracy and generation quality.
## Conclusion
RAGEval provides a comprehensive framework for evaluating RAG systems in domain-specific scenarios, offering more nuanced insights than existing benchmarks. It highlights the potential for significant improvements in open-source models for RAG tasks.
