Case Study

RAG Evaluation System

A benchmark framework for comparing LLMs on scripture-based question answering with retrieval and quantitative evaluation.

Architecture

Queries are embedded, matched against a FAISS index, and passed to the LLM with retrieved context.

Evaluation pipelines compare baseline and retrieval-augmented outputs across several models.

Metrics are collected automatically so model behavior can be compared consistently.

Challenges

  • Measuring quality across models that produce different response styles.
  • Keeping retrieval relevant without overfitting to the evaluation dataset.
  • Making benchmark output easy to compare across runs.

Benchmarks

Automated benchmarking
Grounded retrieval
Quantitative reports

Lessons Learned

  • Evaluation quality improves when retrieval and scoring are treated as first-class pipeline stages.
  • Comparability is as important as raw score output in research tooling.
