What makes allocation tasks worth including in a training or evaluation mix?

Use this list to decide whether allocation tasks belong in your training or evaluation mix.

- The result can be checked by rule, such as balances that must reconcile to the cent after every action. - Inputs include free-text payer references, not only clean identifiers, so reading skill is tested as well as arithmetic. - A written policy ranks competing options, so a defensible answer exists even when the data is ambiguous. - Some cases should end in escalation or suspense, which tests whether a model can decline to force a match. - Decisions have downstream effects, such as reminders, account holds or service changes, that can be inspected afterwards. - Earlier decisions can be reversed, which tests whether the model tracks changing state and not only the latest message. - Several record types must be read together: receipts, open items, customer terms, credit notes and prior case notes. - The domain can change between utilities, insurance, logistics or healthcare billing without changing the core skill being tested.
