Overview

The Rhesis SDK provides a comprehensive metrics system for evaluating LLM-based systems. The metrics module supports multiple evaluation frameworks and allows you to create custom metrics tailored to your specific use cases. The metrics module is integrated with the backend, allowing you to work with metrics directly from the platform.

Metric Types

Rhesis SDK supports two types of metrics:

Single-Turn Metrics

Single-turn metrics evaluate individual exchanges between user input and system output. These metrics are ideal for assessing:

• RAG Systems: Context relevance, faithfulness, and answer accuracy
• Response Quality: Clarity, relevance, and accuracy of individual responses
• Safety & Compliance: Bias, toxicity, PII leakage, and other safety concerns
• Custom Evaluations: Domain-specific quality assessments

Conversational Metrics

Conversational metrics (multi-turn metrics) evaluate the quality of interactions across multiple conversation turns. These metrics are ideal for assessing:

• Conversation Flow: Turn relevancy and coherence across dialogue
• Goal Achievement: Whether objectives are met throughout the conversation
• Role Adherence: Consistency in maintaining assigned roles
• Knowledge Retention: Ability to recall and reference earlier conversation context
• Tool Usage: Appropriate selection and utilization of available tools
• Conversation Completeness: Whether conversations reach satisfactory conclusions

Framework Integration

Quick Example

import os
os.environ["RHESIS_API_KEY"] = "your-api-key"

Single-Turn Evaluation

from rhesis.sdk.metrics import DeepEvalAnswerRelevancy

# Initialize metric
metric = DeepEvalAnswerRelevancy(threshold=0.7)

# Evaluate a single response
result = metric.evaluate(
    input="What is the capital of France?",
    output="The capital of France is Paris."
)

print(f"Score: {result.score}")
print(f"Passed: {result.details['is_successful']}")

Conversational Evaluation

from rhesis.sdk.metrics import DeepEvalTurnRelevancy, ConversationHistory

# Initialize metric
metric = DeepEvalTurnRelevancy(threshold=0.7)

# Create conversation
conversation = ConversationHistory.from_messages([
    {"role": "user", "content": "What insurance do you offer?"},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "We offer auto, home, and life insurance."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Tell me about auto coverage."},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "Auto includes liability and collision coverage."},
])

# Evaluate the conversation
result = metric.evaluate(conversation_history=conversation)

print(f"Score: {result.score}")
print(f"Passed: {result.details['is_successful']}")

Custom Metrics

In addition to framework-provided metrics, Rhesis offers custom metric builders:

For Single-Turn Evaluation

• NumericJudge: Create custom numeric scoring metrics (e.g., 0-10 scale)
• CategoricalJudge: Create custom categorical classification metrics

from rhesis.sdk.metrics import NumericJudge

metric = NumericJudge(
    name="response_clarity",
    evaluation_prompt="Rate how clear and understandable the response is.",
    min_score=0.0,
    max_score=10.0,
    threshold=7.0
)

For Conversational Evaluation

• ConversationalJudge: Create custom conversational quality metrics
• GoalAchievementJudge: Evaluate goal achievement with custom criteria

from rhesis.sdk.metrics import ConversationalJudge

metric = ConversationalJudge(
    name="conversation_coherence",
    evaluation_prompt="Evaluate the coherence and flow of the conversation.",
    min_score=0.0,
    max_score=10.0,
    threshold=7.0
)

Platform Integration

Metrics can be managed both in the platform and in the SDK. The SDK provides push and pull methods to synchronize metrics with the platform.

# Push a metric to the platform
metric.push()

# Pull a metric from the platform
metric = NumericJudge.pull(name="response_clarity")
