Comparative model evaluation

Evaluate candidate models with the same immutable dataset and policy.

Inputs

  • Candidate models
  • Evaluation set
  • Acceptance policy

Outputs

  • Metric reports
  • Decision record
  • Approved candidate

Provenance to preserve

  • Model versions
  • Evaluation runtime
  • Approval rationale

Runnable example

This is the complete checked-in bundle for this pattern. Download the environment, scope, topology, workflow, input, container recipe, runner, and validation contract from this page before executing it.

Verified local execution

These captures and the output manifest were produced by the fixture's local Docker run and validator. They are published with the same bundle as the runnable files.

Execution considerations

Use comparable resources when latency is part of the decision. Keep quality and execution performance as separate measurements.

AkôFlow boundary: the engine schedules, deploys, executes, transfers data, and records evidence. The ML or agent framework remains an implementation choice inside each activity.
