    Classes

    class
    Chain

    Abstract base class for creating structured sequences of calls to components.

    Chains should be used to encode a sequence of calls to components like models, document retrievers, other chains, etc., and provide a simple interface to this sequence.

    class
    PairwiseStringEvaluator

    Compare the output of two models (or two outputs of the same model).

    class
    StringEvaluator

    String evaluator interface.

    Grade, tag, or otherwise evaluate predictions relative to their inputs and/or reference labels.

    class
    StringDistance

    Distance metric to use.

    class
    StringDistanceEvalChain

    Compute string distances between the prediction and the reference.

    Examples:

    from langchain_classic.evaluation import StringDistanceEvalChain evaluator = StringDistanceEvalChain() evaluator.evaluate_strings( prediction="Mindy is the CTO", reference="Mindy is the CEO", )

    Using the load_evaluator function:

    from langchain_classic.evaluation import load_evaluator evaluator = load_evaluator("string_distance") evaluator.evaluate_strings( prediction="The answer is three", reference="three", )

    class
    PairwiseStringDistanceEvalChain

    Compute string edit distances between two predictions.
