Described is a computing apparatus (500) for evaluating a scoring model (302), the computing apparatus (500) being configured to: obtain, for each of a plurality of items (204a, 204b, 204c, 204d) in an item set (204), an
item score (205a, 205b, 205c, 205d); obtain, for each of the plurality of items (204a, 204b, 204c, 204d) in the item set (204), a scoring model-generated
score (303a, 303b, 303c, 303d), the scoring model-generated
score (303a, 303b, 303c, 303d) having been determined by a scoring model (302); and correlate the
item score (205a, 205b, 205c, 205d) and the scoring model-generated
score (303a, 303b, 303c, 303d); and evaluate the scoring model (302) in dependence on the correlation (301). In this way, the accuracy of the scoring model (302) may be evaluated based on a comparison to the
item score (205a, 205b, 205c, 205d).
