The authors report tests across 14 models, four agentic benchmarks, and 19 non-agentic benchmark pools, with PACE-Bench predicting agentic scores at under 4% leave-one-out mean absolute error, above 0.80 Spearman correlation, and around 85% pairwise ranking accuracy. The reported cost is <strong class=\"font-semibold text-neutral-900\">less than 1%<\/strong> of a full agentic evaluation. For practitioners, the useful signal is triage: proxy evals can help narrow model, routing, or tool-policy candidates, but the paper does not prove that compact subsets can replace production-grade agent tests on reliability, tool failures, or long-horizon behavior.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The PACE paper submitted to arXiv on July 2, 2026 proposes using compact proxy benchmarks to estimate expensive&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":569536,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[74],"tags":[9668,8135,16950,1820,18,107397,19,17,3589,82],"class_list":["post-569535","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-agentic-ai","tag-ai-agents","tag-ai-research","tag-benchmarks","tag-eire","tag-evaluation","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-llms","tag-technology"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/116865529437772805","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/569535","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=569535"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/569535\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/569536"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=569535"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=569535"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=569535"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
