# Prompt Evaluation
|
||
|
||
In this tutorial, we will write a simple evaluation pipeline to evaluate a prompt that is part of an AI system, here a movie review sentiment classifier. At the end of this tutorial you’ll learn how to evaluate and iterate on a single prompt using evaluation driven development.
|
||
|
||
```mermaid
|
||
flowchart LR
|
||
A["'This movie was amazing!<br/>Great acting and plot.'"] --> B["Classifier Prompt"]
|
||
B --> C["Positive"]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
We will start by testing a simple prompt that classifies movie reviews as positive or negative.
|
||
|
||
First, make sure you have installed ragas examples and setup your OpenAI API key:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
pip install ragas[examples]
|
||
export OPENAI_API_KEY = "your_openai_api_key"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Now test the prompt:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
python -m ragas_examples.prompt_evals.prompt
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This will test the input `"The movie was fantastic and I loved every moment of it!"` and should output `"positive"`.
|
||
|
||
> **💡 Quick Start**: If you want to see the complete evaluation in action, you can jump straight to the [end-to-end command](#running-the-example-end-to-end) that runs everything and generates the CSV results automatically.
|
||
|
||
Next, we will write down few sample inputs and expected outputs for our prompt. Then convert them to a CSV file.
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
import pandas as pd
|
||
|
||
samples = [{"text": "I loved the movie! It was fantastic.", "label": "positive"},
|
||
{"text": "The movie was terrible and boring.", "label": "negative"},
|
||
{"text": "It was an average film, nothing special.", "label": "positive"},
|
||
{"text": "Absolutely amazing! Best movie of the year.", "label": "positive"}]
|
||
pd.DataFrame(samples).to_csv("datasets/test_dataset.csv", index=False)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Now we need to have a way to measure the performance of our prompt in this task. We will define a metric that will compare the output of our prompt with the expected output and outputs pass/fail based on it.
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
from ragas.metrics import discrete_metric
|
||
from ragas.metrics.result import MetricResult
|
||
|
||
@discrete_metric(name="accuracy", allowed_values=["pass", "fail"])
|
||
def my_metric(prediction: str, actual: str):
|
||
"""Calculate accuracy of the prediction."""
|
||
return MetricResult(value="pass", reason="") if prediction == actual else MetricResult(value="fail", reason="")
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Next, we will write the experiment loop that will run our prompt on the test dataset and evaluate it using the metric, and store the results in a csv file.
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
from ragas import experiment
|
||
|
||
@experiment()
|
||
async def run_experiment(row):
|
||
|
||
response = run_prompt(row["text"])
|
||
score = my_metric.score(
|
||
prediction=response,
|
||
actual=row["label"]
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
experiment_view = {
|
||
**row,
|
||
"response":response,
|
||
"score":score.value,
|
||
}
|
||
return experiment_view
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Now whenever you make a change to your prompt, you can run the experiment and see how it affects the performance of your prompt.
|
||
|
||
### Passing Additional Parameters
|
||
|
||
You can pass additional parameters like models or configurations to your experiment function:
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
@experiment()
|
||
async def run_experiment(row, model):
|
||
response = run_prompt(row["text"], model=model)
|
||
score = my_metric.score(
|
||
prediction=response,
|
||
actual=row["label"]
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
experiment_view = {
|
||
**row,
|
||
"response": response,
|
||
"score": score.value,
|
||
}
|
||
return experiment_view
|
||
|
||
# Run with specific parameters
|
||
run_experiment.arun(dataset, "gpt-4")
|
||
|
||
# Or use keyword arguments
|
||
run_experiment.arun(dataset, model="gpt-4o")
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Running the example end to end
|
||
|
||
1. Setup your OpenAI API key
|
||
```bash
|
||
export OPENAI_API_KEY = "your_openai_api_key"
|
||
```
|
||
2. Run the evaluation
|
||
```bash
|
||
python -m ragas_examples.prompt_evals.evals
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This will:
|
||
|
||
- Create the test dataset with sample movie reviews
|
||
- Run the sentiment classification prompt on each sample
|
||
- Evaluate the results using the accuracy metric
|
||
- Export everything to a CSV file with the results
|
||
|
||
Voila! You have successfully run your first evaluation using Ragas. You can now inspect the results by opening the `experiments/experiment_name.csv` file. |
