PACE: A Proxy for Agentic Capability Evaluation
The PACE framework cuts the cost of evaluating agentic LLMs by over 99% by using a small statistical subset of benchmarks to predict broader performance.
What: PACE uses a regression model to estimate how an agent will perform on complex tasks by analyzing its success on a subset of non-agentic benchmark instances.
Why it matters: Current agentic evaluations require thousands of costly, time-consuming execution trials; this method allows for faster iteration cycles during model development.

Original article
PACE framework predicts costly agentic LLM benchmark performance using a small subset of atomic evaluation instances, achieving high accuracy at a fraction of the cost. It uses a regression model with selected instances from non-agentic benchmarks to predict scores on agentic benchmarks. PACE reduces evaluation costs by over 99% while maintaining a mean absolute error under 4%, aiding model development and selection.
