Debate Evaluation

Debate evaluation research explores how to objectively assess the quality of arguments generated by large language models (LLMs), focusing on metrics that capture argument strength, persuasiveness, and alignment with diverse perspectives. Current research leverages LLMs themselves as judges, often within multi-agent frameworks that simulate debates, and investigates the impact of different debate structures and prompt designs on evaluation accuracy. This work is significant for improving LLM capabilities and fostering trust in AI systems by providing robust methods for evaluating their reasoning and knowledge representation, ultimately impacting various fields from political discourse analysis to knowledge graph question answering.
