RubriX: A Fast, Fine-Tunable Non-Autoregressive Rubric Judge

arXiv paper introducing RubriX, a rubric judge built from a LoRA-adapted encoder and a softmax over scaled cosine similarities rather than text generation. Reports 75.4% exact accuracy on held-out rubrics and roughly 28 ms cached judgments.

Highlights

  • A LoRA-adapted encoder embeds the input and each level description; a softmax over scaled cosine similarities gives a probability per level.
  • RubriX reaches 75.4% exact accuracy on held-out rubrics, against 57.1% for TypeSafe's Jev and 49.8% for a Qwen3-8B judge.
  • Within 6 percentage points of Jev on most of eight human-labelled benchmark sets, with Jev holding a larger lead on two.
  • With level embeddings cached, latency stays near 28 ms per judgment as level descriptions grow from 10 to 3,000 tokens.
  • At 3,000 tokens per level RubriX is 7.7x faster than Jev and 18.8x faster than the Qwen3-8B judge.
