🚀Text Embedding Benchmark Pipelines with CLI (LangTest + LlamaIndex)

Text embedding benchmarks play a pivotal role in assessing the performance of text embedding models across various tasks, crucial for evaluating the quality of text embeddings used in Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications.

The LangTest CLI for Text Embedding Benchmark Pipelines facilitates evaluation of HuggingFace's embedding models on a retrieval task on the Paul Graham dataset. It starts by initializing each embedding model and creating a context for vector operations. Then, it sets up a vector store index for efficient similarity searches. Next, it configures a query engine and a retriever, retrieving the top similar items based on a predefined parameter. Evaluation is then conducted using Mean Reciprocal Rank (MRR) and Hit Rate metrics, measuring the retriever's performance. Perturbations such as typos and word swaps are applied to test the retriever's robustness.

Key Features:

• Simplified Benchmarking: Run text embedding benchmark pipelines effortlessly through our CLI, eliminating the need for complex setup or manual intervention.

• Versatile Model Evaluation: Evaluate the performance of text embedding models across diverse tasks, empowering users to assess the quality and effectiveness of different models for their specific use cases.

How it Works:

1. Set API Keys as enviroment variable.
2. Example Usage (Single Model): python -m langtest benchmark embeddings --model TaylorAI/bge-micro --hub huggingface
3. Example Usage (Multiple Models): python -m langtest benchmark embeddings --model "TaylorAI/bge-micro,TaylorAI/gte-tiny,intfloat/e5-small" --hub huggingface

📊 Compare Models Across Multiple Benchmark Datasets

Previously, when testing your model, you were limited to evaluating its performance on one dataset at a time. With this update, we've introduced the flexibility to assess your model's efficacy across diverse benchmark datasets simultaneously, empowering you to gain deeper insights into its performance under various conditions and data distributions.

Key Benefits:

• Comprehensive Model Evaluation: Evaluate your model's performance across multiple benchmark datasets in a single run, allowing for a more comprehensive assessment of its capabilities and generalization across different data domains.

• Time Efficiency: Streamline your testing process by eliminating the need to conduct separate evaluations for each dataset, saving valuable time and resources.

• Enhanced Flexibility: Choose from a range of benchmark datasets to test your model against, catering to specific use cases and ensuring robust performance evaluation across diverse scenarios.

How it Works:

To leverage this new feature and compare models across different benchmark datasets, simply pass multiple datasets as input in data_source as a dict:

harness = Harness(
    task="question-answering",
    model={"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct", "hub": "openai"},
    data=[
        {"data_source": "BoolQ", "split": "test-tiny"}, #Add your datsets here
        {"data_source": "NQ-open", "split": "test-tiny"},
        {"data_source": "MedQA", "split": "test-tiny"},
        {"data_source": "LogiQA", "split": "test-tiny"},
        ],
    config={
        "model_parameters": {
            "max_tokens": 32,
            "temperature": 0.2,
        },
        "evaluation": {
            "metric": "llm_eval",
            "model": "gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct",
            "hub": "openai",
        },
        "tests": {
            "defaults": {"min_pass_rate": 0.65},
            "robustness": {
                "uppercase": {"min_pass_rate": 0.75},
                "add_typo": {"min_pass_rate": 0.75},
            },
        },
    },
)

🤬 Enhanced Toxicity Testing

In this latest release, we've enhanced our toxicity testing framework by introducing a series of comprehensive assessments. Evaluations can be tailored to focus on specific types of toxicity, allowing for detailed analysis in targeted areas of concern. These enhancements are designed to evaluate various facets of toxicity, including obscenity, insult, threat, identity attack, and targeting based on sexual orientation. By expanding the scope of our assessments, we aim to better identify and address instances of negative or hateful comments, harmful stereotypes, and expressions of intent to cause harm or danger.

Supported Tests:

• general_toxicity: This metric focuses on detecting general toxicity, covering a wide range of categories such as obscenity, insult, threat, identity attack, sexual orientation, psychiatric or mental illness related content, and more.
• homosexual_gay_or_lesbian: Assesses negative or hateful comments targeting individuals based on gender identity or sexual orientation.
• insult: Evaluates the insult score of completions, particularly instances where vulgar language is used with the primary intent to demean or belittle the recipient.
• identity_attack: Assesses whether completions perpetuate harmful stereotypes or attack individuals or groups based on intrinsic characteristics such as race, ethnicity, religion, etc.
• obscene: Evaluates the presence of obscene content within completions, including vulgar language, explicit sexual references, or any form of communication deemed offensive or inappropriate.
• threat: Identifies expressions of intent to cause harm or danger within completions.

How to Execute:

harness = Harness(task={"task": "text-generation", "category": "toxicity"},
                  model={"model": "gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct", "hub": "openai"},

                          "max_tokens": 200
                      },
                      "tests": {
