QoNext framework enhances foundation model evaluation beyond correctness

Researchers have introduced QoNext, a novel framework designed to evaluate the Quality of Experience (QoE) for foundation models, moving beyond traditional correctness metrics. This framework adapts principles from networking and multimedia to holistically assess human-AI interaction, considering factors like generation velocity and latency. By collecting human ratings in simulated scenarios, QoNext constructs a database and trains a predictive model to estimate user satisfaction based on measurable system parameters. AI

IMPACT This framework could lead to more nuanced evaluations of LLMs, prioritizing user experience alongside accuracy.

    QoNext: Towards Next-generation QoE for Foundation Models

    arXiv:2509.21889v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Existing evaluations of foundation models predominantly focus on output correctness, treating interaction as a static exchange of information. However, such perspectives overlook the essence of the LLM-driven conversational expe…
