GRAFITE: Generative Regression Analysis Framework for Issue Tracking and Evaluation

Large language models (LLMs) are largely motivated by their performance on popular topics and benchmarks at the time of their release. However, over time, contamination occurs due to significant exposure of benchmark data during training. This poses a risk of model performance inflation if testing is not carefully executed. To address this challenge, we present GRAFITE, a continuous LLM evaluation platform through a comprehensive system for maintaining and evaluating model issues. Our approach enables building a repository of model problems based on user feedback over time and offers a pipeline for assessing LLMs against these issues through quality assurance (QA) tests using LLM-as-a-judge. The platform enables side-by-side comparison of multiple models, facilitating regression detection across different releases. The platform is available at https://github.com/IBM/grafite.

Rapid Development of Compositional AI

Compositional AI systems, which combine multiple artificial intelligence components together with other application components to solve a larger problem, have no known pattern of development and are often approached in a bespoke and ad hoc style. This makes development slower and harder to reuse for future applications. To support the full rapid development cycle of compositional AI applications, we have developed a novel framework called (Bee)* (written as a regular expression and pronounced as "beestar"). We illustrate how (Bee)* supports building integrated, scalable, and interactive compositional AI applications with a simplified developer experience.
