Trade-off Analysis
Domain: Evaluation
🎯 Motivation
Evaluating trade-offs: accuracy vs speed, safety vs helpfulness, cost vs quality. No model is perfect on all dimensions.
📋 Concrete Example
Trade-off: Model A (95% accuracy, 0.10/query). For a medical app, choose A. For a chatbot, choose B. Context determines the best trade-off.
🔗 Analogy
Choosing a laptop - fast + light + cheap: pick two. You cannot have all three. Trade-off analysis evaluates which combination best fits the need.
