# Batch Evaluation Guide

## Overview

The batch evaluation system allows processing multiple models and datasets efficiently for comprehensive sleeper agent detection analysis.

## Batch Processing CLI

### Basic Usage

```bash
# Evaluate multiple models on a dataset
python -m packages.sleeper_agents.cli batch-eval \
    --models pythia-70m pythia-160m gpt2 \
    --dataset path/to/dataset.json \
    --output results/batch_eval.json

# Use Docker for consistency
docker compose run --rm sleeper-eval-cpu \
    python -m packages.sleeper_agents.cli batch-eval \
    --models pythia-70m --dataset /data/test.json
```

### Advanced Options

```bash
# Full batch evaluation with all detection methods
python -m packages.sleeper_agents.cli batch-eval \
    --models pythia-70m pythia-160m \
    --dataset suspicious_prompts.json \
    --methods probes attention residual interventions \

## Batch Evaluation API

### Python API

```python
from packages.sleeper_agents.batch.evaluator import BatchEvaluator
from packages.sleeper_agents.app.config import BatchConfig

config = BatchConfig(
    models=["pythia-70m", "pythia-160m"],
    dataset_path="dataset.json",
    detection_methods=["probes", "attention"],
    parallel_workers=4,
    save_intermediate=True
)

evaluator = BatchEvaluator(config)
results = await evaluator.run()

# Access results
for model_name, model_results in results.items():
    print(f"Model: {model_name}")
    print(f"Accuracy: {model_results['accuracy']:.2%}")
    print(f"F1 Score: {model_results['f1_score']:.3f}")
```

### REST API

```python
# Start batch evaluation job
POST /api/batch/evaluate
{
  "models": ["pythia-70m"],
  "dataset_url": "https://example.com/dataset.json",
  "methods": ["all"],
  "callback_url": "https://webhook.site/callback"
}

# Check job status
GET /api/batch/status/{job_id}

# Get results
GET /api/batch/results/{job_id}
```

## Evaluation Metrics

### Performance Metrics

- **Accuracy**: Overall correct classifications
- **Precision**: True positives / (True positives + False positives)
- **Recall**: True positives / (True positives + False negatives)
- **F1 Score**: Harmonic mean of precision and recall
- **AUC-ROC**: Area under receiver operating characteristic curve
- **Confusion Matrix**: Detailed classification breakdown

### Efficiency Metrics

- **Throughput**: Samples processed per second
- **Latency**: Average time per sample
- **Memory Usage**: Peak memory consumption
- **GPU Utilization**: For GPU-enabled evaluations

## Parallel Processing

### Local Parallelization

```python
# Configure parallel processing
config = BatchConfig(
    parallel_workers=8,  # Number of parallel workers
    batch_size=32,       # Samples per batch
    use_multiprocessing=True,
    worker_memory_limit="4GB"
)
```

### Distributed Processing

```bash
# Launch distributed evaluation across multiple nodes
python -m packages.sleeper_agents.batch.distributed \
    --coordinator-url http://coordinator:8080 \
    --worker-id worker-01 \
    --models pythia-70m
```

## Result Analysis

### Generating Reports

```bash
# Generate comprehensive HTML report
python -m packages.sleeper_agents.batch.report \
    --results results/batch_eval.json \
    --output report.html \
    --include-plots \
    --include-samples
```

### Comparative Analysis

```python
from packages.sleeper_agents.batch.analysis import compare_models

# Compare model performance
comparison = compare_models(
    results_dir="results/",
    models=["pythia-70m", "pythia-160m", "gpt2"],
    metrics=["f1_score", "latency"]
)

# Statistical significance testing
significance = comparison.statistical_tests(
    test="wilcoxon",
    confidence=0.95
)
```

## Checkpointing & Recovery

### Enable Checkpointing

```python
config = BatchConfig(
    checkpoint_dir="checkpoints/",
    checkpoint_frequency=100,  # Save every 100 samples
    resume_from_checkpoint=True
)
```

### Recovery from Failures

```bash
# Resume interrupted evaluation
python -m packages.sleeper_agents.cli batch-eval \
    --resume checkpoints/batch_eval_20240315_120000.ckpt
```

## Best Practices

### Dataset Preparation

1. **Balance Classes**: Ensure balanced representation of clean/backdoor samples
2. **Diverse Triggers**: Include various trigger types and patterns
3. **Quality Control**: Validate labels and remove ambiguous cases
4. **Size Considerations**: Start with smaller datasets for testing

### Evaluation Strategy

1. **Cross-Validation**: Use k-fold cross-validation for robust results
2. **Baseline Comparison**: Always include baseline models
3. **Multiple Runs**: Average results across multiple runs
4. **Progressive Evaluation**: Start with fast models, then scale up

### Resource Management

```python
# CPU-optimized configuration
cpu_config = BatchConfig(
    device="cpu",
    use_minimal_model=True,
    batch_size=8,
    parallel_workers=4,
    memory_efficient=True
)

# GPU-optimized configuration
gpu_config = BatchConfig(
    device="cuda",
    batch_size=128,
    mixed_precision=True,
    compile_model=True
)
```

## Example Workflows

### Quick Evaluation

```bash
# Fast evaluation on small dataset
./scripts/quick_batch_eval.sh \
    --model pythia-70m \
    --samples 100
```

### Comprehensive Benchmark

```bash
# Full benchmark suite
./scripts/run_benchmark.sh \
    --suite comprehensive \
    --models all \
    --output benchmark_results/
```

### Custom Evaluation Pipeline

```python
# Custom evaluation with preprocessing
from packages.sleeper_agents.batch import Pipeline

pipeline = Pipeline()
    .add_preprocessor(normalize_text)
    .add_detector(SleeperDetector)
    .add_postprocessor(aggregate_scores)
    .add_reporter(HTMLReporter)

results = await pipeline.run(dataset)
```
