This page defines how to measure **precision and recall** in RAG pipelines under the WFGY framework. It sets acceptance thresholds, common pitfalls, and structural fixes to keep evaluations meaningful and reproducible.

## Open these first
|
||
|
||
* Visual map and recovery: [RAG Architecture & Recovery](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/rag-architecture-and-recovery.md)
|
||
* Retrieval contract: [Data Contracts](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/data-contracts.md)
|
||
* Traceability schema: [Retrieval Traceability](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/retrieval-traceability.md)
|
||
* Embedding drift: [Embedding ≠ Semantic](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/embedding-vs-semantic.md)
|
||
* Hallucination boundaries: [Hallucination](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/hallucination.md)
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Acceptance targets
|
||
|
||
* **Precision ≥ 0.75** at citation level
|
||
* **Recall ≥ 0.70** of gold anchor snippets
|
||
* **ΔS(question, retrieved) ≤ 0.45** for majority of pairs
|
||
* **λ remains convergent** across 3 paraphrases and 2 random seeds
|
||
* Evaluations must be **auditable & reproducible** with JSON logs
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Why precision/recall break in RAG
|
||
|
||
1. **Goldset drift**
|
||
Anchors no longer align with the corpus after updates.
|
||
→ Fix: refresh goldsets with [goldset\_curation.md](./goldset_curation.md).
|
||
|
||
2. **Retrieval contract missing**
|
||
Snippet payloads do not include section IDs or offsets.
|
||
→ Fix: enforce [Data Contracts](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/data-contracts.md).
|
||
|
||
3. **Precision false positives**
|
||
Semantically near matches but wrong factual anchor.
|
||
→ Fix: rerank with [Rerankers](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/rerankers.md).
|
||
|
||
4. **Recall false negatives**
|
||
Correct snippet exists but chunking or index prevents surfacing.
|
||
→ Fix: re-chunk corpus with [chunking-checklist.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/chunking-checklist.md).
|
||
|
||
5. **Evaluation noise**
|
||
Different seeds or paraphrases give unstable results.
|
||
→ Fix: clamp λ variance with [variance\_and\_drift.md](../Eval_Observability/variance_and_drift.md).
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Quick workflow
|
||
|
||
1. **Load goldset**
|
||
Each gold QA item must cite `snippet_id`, `section_id`, `source_url`.
|
||
|
||
2. **Run retrieval**
|
||
Collect top-k results (k = 5, 10, 20).
|
||
|
||
3. **Log ΔS & λ**
|
||
For each query and paraphrase, record ΔS values and λ states.
|
||
|
||
4. **Compute metrics**
|
||
|
||
* Precision = correct citations / total citations
|
||
* Recall = correct citations / gold references
|
||
|
||
5. **Regression gate**
|
||
Block deploy if precision < 0.75 or recall < 0.70.

## Example JSON log
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
{
|
||
"question": "What causes hallucination re-entry?",
|
||
"gold": ["hallucination-reentry"],
|
||
"retrieved": ["hallucination-reentry", "entropy-drift"],
|
||
"precision": 0.50,
|
||
"recall": 1.00,
|
||
"ΔS": 0.38,
|
||
"λ_state": "→"
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Common pitfalls
|
||
|
||
* **Evaluating only precision** → recall collapses unnoticed.
|
||
* **Counting fuzzy hits** as correct → ΔS may be high, but factually wrong.
|
||
* **No paraphrases tested** → λ instability hidden.
|
||
* **Relying on one seed** → fragile numbers that don’t generalize.
