How do you prove an open model actually improved?
A new open-source tool called Research Proof has been developed to help researchers and developers more rigorously test and verify claims about improvements in open-source AI models. The tool aims to standardize the process by defining key metrics such as the baseline model, evaluation methods, potential regressions, and hidden costs. By providing a framework to categorize evidence as PROVEN, SUPPORTED, REJECTED, or OPEN, Research Proof seeks to ensure that demonstrated model improvements are robust and reproducible outside of initial demonstrations.
