    • Location: vector_store.py

  2. Top-K Retrieval ✅

    • Embedds queries using same model as documents
    • Vector similarity search via ChromaDB
    • Returns top-K results (configurable, default 5)
    • Location: vector_store.py:330-370

  3. LLM Response Generation ✅

    • RAG prompt generation with question + retrieved documents
    • Groq API integration (llama-3.1-8b-instant)
    • Rate limiting (30 RPM) implemented
    • Location: llm_client.py:219-241

  4. Extract 6 GPT Labeling Attributes ✅

    • relevance_explanation - Which documents relevant
    • all_relevant_sentence_keys - Document sentences relevant to question
    • overall_supported_explanation - Why response is/isn't supported
    • overall_supported - Boolean: fully supported
    • sentence_support_information - Per-sentence analysis
    • all_utilized_sentence_keys - Document sentences used in response
    • Location: advanced_rag_evaluator.py:50-360

  5. Compute 4 TRACE Metrics ✅

    • Context Relevance (fraction of context relevant)
    • Context Utilization (fraction of relevant context used)
    • Completeness (coverage of relevant information)
    • Adherence (response grounded in context, no hallucinations)
    • Location: advanced_rag_evaluator.py:370-430
    • Verification: All formulas match RAGBench paper

    • Location: docs/, project root markdown files

❌ NOT IMPLEMENTED (3/10 Critical Requirements)

Issue 1: Ground Truth Score Extraction ❌

Severity: 🔴 CRITICAL

Requirement: Extract pre-computed evaluation scores from RAGBench dataset

Current Status:

  • Dataset loader does not extract ground truth scores
  • Can load questions, answers, and documents
  • Missing: context_relevance, context_utilization, completeness, adherence scores from dataset

Impact: Cannot compute RMSE or AUCROC without ground truth

Location: dataset_loader.py:79-110 (needs modification)

Fix Time: 15-30 minutes

Issue 2: RMSE Metric Calculation ❌

Severity: 🔴 CRITICAL

Requirement: Compute RMSE by comparing computed metrics with original dataset scores

Current Status: ❌ No implementation

Missing Code:

# Not present anywhere:
from sklearn.metrics import mean_squared_error
rmse = sqrt(mean_squared_error(predicted_scores, ground_truth_scores))

Impact: Cannot validate evaluation quality or compare with RAGBench baseline

RAGBench Paper Reference: Section 4.3 - "Evaluation Metrics"

Fix Time: 1-1.5 hours (including integration)

Issue 3: AUCROC Metric Calculation ❌

Severity: 🔴 CRITICAL

Requirement: Compute AUCROC by comparing metrics against binary support labels

Current Status: ❌ No implementation

Missing Code:

# Not present anywhere:
from sklearn.metrics import roc_auc_score
auc = roc_auc_score(binary_labels, predictions)

Impact: Cannot assess classifier performance for grounding detection

RAGBench Paper Reference: Section 4.3 - "Evaluation Metrics"

Fix Time: 1-1.5 hours (including integration)

  2. Add statistical analysis (confidence intervals, p-values)
  3. Add per-domain metrics (analyze performance by dataset)

Long-term:

  1. Implement caching to avoid recomputation
  2. Add multi-LLM consensus labeling
  3. Add interactive dashboard for result exploration

Bottom Line

Current Status: 80% Complete, Missing Critical Evaluation Metrics

What Works:

  • ✅ Document retrieval system fully functional
  • ✅ LLM response generation working

  • ✅ TRACE metrics correctly computed
  • ✅ Streamlit UI shows all features

What's Missing:

  • ❌ Ground truth score extraction
  • ❌ RMSE metric calculation
  • ❌ AUCROC metric calculation
  • ❌ Results validation

Path to Completion:

  1. Extract ground truth scores (15-30 min)

  5. Test and validate (30-45 min)

Total Effort: 2.5-4 hours to achieve full RAGBench compliance

Recommendation: Prioritize implementation of missing metrics. Once these are in place, the system will be RAGBench-compliant and ready for comprehensive evaluation.
