Groundedness

An evaluation measure of whether a response's claims are supported by the provided context.

Definition

Groundedness (also faithfulness) checks catch hallucinations in RAG systems. Amazon Bedrock Guardrails contextual grounding checks and Azure AI Content Safety groundedness detection score responses against source documents.

Exam tip

Faithfulness/groundedness measures support by context; answer relevance measures whether it addresses the question.
