Can We Afford The Perfect Prompt? Balancing Cost and Accuracy with the Economical Prompting Index (2025.coling-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Prompt engineering is a growing subdiscipline of natural language processing . a lack of appropriate consideration for the financial constraints of computationally burdensome methods can limit their adoption and impact. |
| Approach: | They propose a new metric that combines accuracy scores with token consumption to reflect different resource constraints. |
| Outcome: | The economic prompting index (EPI) measures the performance of 6 prompting techniques across 10 widely-used language models and 4 diverse datasets. |
