Twenty Years of Confusion in Human Evaluation: NLG Needs Evaluation Sheets and Standardised Definitions
Human assessment remains the most trusted form of evaluation in NLG, but highly diverse approaches and a proliferation of different quality criteria used by researchers make it difficult to compare results and draw conclusions across papers, with adverse implications for meta-evaluation and reproducibility.
Reproducing a Comparison of Hedged and Non-hedged NLG Texts
This paper describes an attempt to reproduce an earlier experiment, previously conducted by the author, that compares hedged and non-hedged NLG texts as part of the ReproGen shared challenge.
It’s Commonsense, isn’t it? Demystifying Human Evaluations in Commonsense-Enhanced NLG Systems
Common sense is an integral part of human cognition which allows us to make sound decisions, communicate effectively with others and interpret situations and utterances.
Automatic Metrics in Natural Language Generation: A Survey of Current Evaluation Practices
Automatic metrics are extensively used to evaluate natural language processing systems.
On the Role of Summary Content Units in Text Summarization Evaluation
At the heart of the Pyramid evaluation method for text summarization lie human written summary content units (SCUs).
Missing Information, Unresponsive Authors, Experimental Flaws: The Impossibility of Assessing the Reproducibility of Previous Human Evaluations in NLP
We report our efforts in identifying a set of previous human evaluations in NLP that would be suitable for a coordinated study examining what makes human evaluations in NLP more/less reproducible.
Needle in a Haystack: An Analysis of High-Agreement Workers on MTurk for Summarization
To prevent the costly and inefficient use of resources on low-quality annotations, we want a method for creating a pool of dependable annotators who can effectively complete difficult tasks, such as evaluating automatic summarization.
GEMv2: Multilingual NLG Benchmarking in a Single Line of Code
This problem is especially pertinent in natural language generation which requires ever-improving suites of datasets, metrics, and human evaluation to make definitive claims.
NL-Augmenter: A Framework for Task-Sensitive Natural Language Augmentation
Data augmentation is an important component in the robustness evaluation of models in natural language processing (NLP) and in enhancing the diversity of the data they are trained on.
Underreporting of errors in NLG output, and what to do about it
We observe a severe under-reporting of the different kinds of errors that Natural Language Generation systems make.
Automatic Construction of Evaluation Suites for Natural Language Generation Datasets
By applying this framework to the GEM generation benchmark, we propose an evaluation suite made of 80 challenge sets, demonstrate the kinds of analyses that it enables and shed light onto the limits of current generation models.
The GEM Benchmark: Natural Language Generation, its Evaluation and Metrics
We introduce GEM, a living benchmark for natural language Generation (NLG), its Evaluation, and Metrics.
