The Hidden-RAD2 evaluation framework draws on methods from structured prediction, named entity recognition, text correction, semantic similarity, and radiology-report evaluation.
The NTCIR-18 framework evaluated free-text causal explanations using semantic similarity, diagnostic consistency, causal appropriateness, and expert review.
NTCIR-18 Hidden-RAD Evaluation Scheme
This framework provides background for evaluating clinical reasoning but is not directly reused for the structured A1–A5 outputs of Hidden-RAD2 Task 1.
Exact span and typed-span precision, recall, and F1 are standard methods in named entity recognition.
Nested Named Entity Recognition: A Survey
ERRANT extracts and classifies edits between original and corrected text and supports error-detection and correction evaluation.
Automatic Annotation and Evaluation of Error Types for Grammatical Error Correction
PT-M2 applies pretrained semantic metrics to edited portions rather than allowing unchanged text to dominate the score.
Revisiting Grammatical Error Correction Evaluation and Beyond
BERTScore compares candidate and reference texts using contextual token embeddings.
BERTScore: Evaluating Text Generation with BERT
Semantic similarity is used as a supporting measure and does not by itself establish clinical factuality or fluency.
RadGraph F1 compares clinical entities and relations, while RadCliQ combines automatic metrics to better approximate radiologist-assessed error severity.
Evaluating Progress in Automatic Chest X-ray Radiology Report Generation
GREEN uses a radiology-specific language model to identify and explain clinically significant errors in generated reports.
