General-FunctionCalling#
Overview#
General-FunctionCalling is a customizable benchmark for evaluating function calling (tool use) capabilities of language models. It tests both the decision to call tools and the accuracy of generated function calls.
Task Description#
Task Type: Function Calling / Tool Use Evaluation
Input: Messages with available tool definitions
Output: Function calls with valid arguments
Flexibility: Supports custom datasets via local files
Key Features#
Evaluates function calling decision accuracy
Schema validation for function arguments
Comprehensive metrics (F1, precision, recall)
Custom dataset support via local file loading
JSON schema-based argument validation
Evaluation Notes#
Default configuration uses 0-shot evaluation
Metrics: tool_call_f1, schema_accuracy, count metrics
Aggregation: F1 score
Validates function calls against JSON schema
See User Guide for dataset format
