TL;DR: The brain may have evolved a modular architecture for daily tasks, with circuits featuring functionally specialized modules that match the task structure. We hypothesize that this architecture enables better learning and generalization than architectures with less specialized modules. To test this, we trained reinforcement learning agents with various neural architectures on a naturalistic navigation task.

Evaluating the performance of Large Language Models (LLMs) is an important and necessary step in refining it. LLMs are used in solving many different problems ranging from text classification and information extraction. Choosing the correct metrics to measure the performance of an LLM can greatly increase the effectiveness of the model. In this blog, we will explore one such crucial metric the F1 score.
