Object Aligner: A Configurable JSON Schema Similarity Score for Graphs, Applied to LLM Prompt Optimization
Large language models (LLMs) are often asked to produce JSON conforming to a fixed schema, powering information extraction, tool calling, agentic planning, and knowledge-graph construction. Measuring how closely an output matches a gold reference is essential yet surprisingly hard: exact match is brittle, text similarity ignores structure, and an LLM judge is expensive, opaque, and non-deterministic. We address this with Object Aligner (OA), an open-source Python library that scores two JSON objects deterministically by recursively aligning their trees (the Hungarian algorithm for unordered collections, sequence alignment for ordered ones) and awarding partial credit at the granularity th...
