SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires lm-eval, transformers, vllm, and includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a standardized framework for evaluating the quality and capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) across a wide range of academic benchmarks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Comprehensive Benchmarking: Evaluate LLMs on over 60 academic benchmarks including MMLU, HumanEval, GSM8K, TruthfulQA, and HellaSwag.
  • Model Comparison: Easily compare the performance of different LLMs or track the progress of a single model during training.
  • Industry Standard: Utilizes the widely adopted lm-evaluation-harness used by major AI labs.
  • Flexible Backend Support: Works with HuggingFace models, vLLM, and various APIs.

Quick Start

Evaluate the 'meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf' model on the MMLU, GSM8K, and HellaSwag tasks using the command lm_eval --model hf --model_args pretrained=meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-hf --tasks mmlu,gsm8k,hellaswag --device cuda:0 --batch_size 8.
