Confidence in LLM Rankings
A statistical framework to assess uncertainty when evaluating AI models
This research introduces a nonparametric contextual ranking framework that provides statistical confidence measures when comparing large language models.
- Addresses the critical challenge of quantifying uncertainty in LLM evaluations
- Enables hypothesis testing between different model rankings
- Provides domain-specific insights particularly valuable for medical applications
- Supports better-informed decisions when selecting models based on the best-of-N policy
For medical applications, this framework helps identify which models can be trusted in high-stakes healthcare scenarios, potentially reducing harmful hallucinations and improving clinical decision support.
