| # DEVİM Eval |
|
|
| This repository documents DEVİM's evaluation methodology and evaluator failures. It does **not** release hidden holdout items. |
|
|
| A central research lesson in DEVİM is that evaluator quality is part of the scientific problem: a model can improve language modeling while a capability instrument stays flat, and a seemingly useful QA task can turn out to be solvable by copying. |
|
|
| ## Frozen V1.8 evaluator |
|
|
| Public-safe facts: |
|
|
| - Evaluator: **DEVIM_TR_CAPABILITY_V1_8** |
| - Forced-choice items: **2,000** |
| - Validator: **32 / 32 PASS** |
| - Hard contamination detected: **0** |
| - Blind audit: **75 CLEAN / 5 AWKWARD / 0 HARD** |
|
|
| The hidden item bank itself remains private to preserve evaluation integrity. |
|
|
| ## Why evaluator failures are published |
|
|
| DEVİM's QA diagnostic exposed a copy confound: the interface could not cleanly distinguish target capability from mechanical extraction. That experiment was treated as evaluator evidence, not as a model victory. |
|
|
| The current public principle is: |
|
|
| **research metrics are not automatically leaderboard benchmarks.** |
|
|
| A trustworthy public benchmark requires frozen definitions, contamination controls, validated scoring, and a release boundary that does not leak the hidden holdout. |
|
|
| ## What may be published here |
|
|
| - evaluator methodology |
| - schemas and validators |
| - scoring code when safe |
| - contamination-check methodology |
| - public example items |
| - evaluator version history |
| - negative results and known confounds |
|
|
| ## What remains private |
|
|
| - hidden V1.8 holdout items |
| - sequestered evaluation material |
| - private prompts/contracts |
| - any artifact whose release would invalidate future measurement |
