Module answer_exact_match
AnswerExactMatchEvaluator
An answer exact match evaluator class.
The evaluator that checks if the predicted answers matches any of the ground truth answers exactly. The result is a number from 0.0 to 1.0, it represents the proportion of predicted answers that matched one of the ground truth answers. There can be multiple ground truth answers and multiple predicted answers as input.
Usage example:
from haystack.components.evaluators import AnswerExactMatchEvaluator
evaluator = AnswerExactMatchEvaluator()
result = evaluator.run(
ground_truth_answers=["Berlin", "Paris"],
predicted_answers=["Berlin", "Lyon"],
)
print(result["individual_scores"])
# [1, 0]
print(result["score"])
# 0.5
AnswerExactMatchEvaluator.run
@component.output_types(individual_scores=List[int], score=float)
def run(ground_truth_answers: List[str],
predicted_answers: List[str]) -> Dict[str, Any]
Run the AnswerExactMatchEvaluator on the given inputs.
The ground_truth_answers and retrieved_answers must have the same length.
Arguments:
ground_truth_answers: A list of expected answers.predicted_answers: A list of predicted answers.
Returns:
A dictionary with the following outputs:
individual_scores- A list of 0s and 1s, where 1 means that the predicted answer matched one of the ground truth.score- A number from 0.0 to 1.0 that represents the proportion of questions where any predicted answer matched one of the ground truth answers.
Module context_relevance
ContextRelevanceEvaluator
Evaluator that checks if a provided context is relevant to the question.
An LLM breaks up a context into multiple statements and checks whether each statement is relevant for answering a question. The score for each context is either binary score of 1 or 0, where 1 indicates that the context is relevant to the question and 0 indicates that the context is not relevant. The evaluator also provides the relevant statements from the context and an average score over all the provided input questions contexts pairs.
Usage example:
from haystack.components.evaluators import ContextRelevanceEvaluator
questions = ["Who created the Python language?", "Why does Java needs a JVM?", "Is C++ better than Python?"]
contexts = [
[(
"Python, created by Guido van Rossum in the late 1980s, is a high-level general-purpose programming "
"language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its language constructs aim to help "
"programmers write clear, logical code for both small and large-scale software projects."
)],
[(
"Java is a high-level, class-based, object-oriented programming language that is designed to have as few "
"implementation dependencies as possible. The JVM has two primary functions: to allow Java programs to run"
"on any device or operating system (known as the 'write once, run anywhere' principle), and to manage and"
"optimize program memory."
)],
[(
"C++ is a general-purpose programming language created by Bjarne Stroustrup as an extension of the C "
"programming language."
)],

Module sas_evaluator
SASEvaluator
SASEvaluator computes the Semantic Answer Similarity (SAS) between a list of predictions and a one of ground truths.
It's usually used in Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines to evaluate the quality of the generated
