New workflow uses expert critique and LLMs to build AI evaluation datasets

Researchers have developed a new workflow called SME-C (Subject Matter Expert Critique) to efficiently create high-quality evaluation datasets for domain-specific LLMs. This approach combines lightweight critiques from human experts with LLM-driven analysis and refinement, significantly improving response quality compared to baseline methods. The system was validated in the financial business brief domain, demonstrating that critique-based refinement yields more domain-grounded improvements, while vote-based refinement is better at removing irrelevant content. This iterative process allows for the creation of robust evaluation resources more quickly and cost-effectively. AI

IMPACT This iterative approach to dataset curation could accelerate the development and benchmarking of domain-specific LLMs.

    Pairing Expert Critique with LLM-Driven Refinement: An Iterative Approach for Curating Quality AI Evaluation Datasets

    arXiv:2611.05749v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Evaluating and improving domain-specific LLM responses requires high-quality reference data and rubrics, yet expert authoring is slow and expensive, and synthetic datasets may fail to capture practitioner preferences unless they a…
