Evaluation of LLM confidence estimation capabilities using the test split of the AlpacaEval dataset, measured by Rank Correlation (RK) and AUROC.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | LLM Judgement Confidence Estimation |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | AlpacaEval (test) |
| Metric | Rank Correlation (RK) |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 16 of 16 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [Rank Correlation (RK)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/llm-judgement-confidence-estimation-on-alpacaeval-test.md?metric=Rank%20Correlation%20(RK)>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [AUROC](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/llm-judgement-confidence-estimation-on-alpacaeval-test.md?metric=AUROC>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
