arXiv:2601. 18253v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Accurate evaluation of user satisfaction is critical for iterative development of conversational AI.
arXiv:2607. 27816v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Role-playing agents (RPAs) have become one of the most important consumer applications of large language models.
The paper introduces UPHELD, a large benchmark of human-to-human dialogues written by professional script writers, featuring realistic turn densities and over 36,000 per-turn human annotations. It evaluates existing automatic metrics and LLM-as-a-judge methods, finding them unreliable against expert human judgment. Using UPHELD, the authors develop a Mixture-of-Judges framework that improves correlation with human assessments by about 30%.
arXiv:2607. 12085v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Evaluating retail conversational agents requires methods beyond lexical-overlap metrics to assess intent alignment, factuality, helpfulness, clarity, tone, and overall response quality.
arXiv:2608. 11493v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Traditional offline recommendation evaluation relies heavily on complex, manually maintained feature pipelines that are difficult to scale.
arXiv:2606. 03116v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The rapid advancement of instruction-guided audio generation has highlighted the critical need for robust alignment evaluation.
User interface (UI) and user experience (UX) evaluation is central to product development, yet reliable feedback still relies on recruiting human participants or running online A/B tests, making early-stage iteration slow and costly. In light of this, recent work has explored Multimodal Large Language Models as proxy evaluators.
arXiv:2607. 05046v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Evaluating generative AI models is a routine, but resource-intensive, process that is conducted over and over again during the course of model development.

arXiv:2607. 19219v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have been widely applied to automated essay scoring (AES) and automated feedback generation (AFG).
The paper introduces Evaluation-as-Search (EaS), a feedback‑driven method that adaptively probes LLM‑powered meeting assistants by focusing on natural questions likely to reveal grounding failures. Using EaS, the authors build MeetingProbe, a benchmark of over 3,000 annotated question‑answer pairs from 20 transcripts across three meeting genres and three assistants. Ablation studies show that adaptive search uncovers 2.5× more failures than random probing, revealing a capability gradient and eight recurring failure categories dominated by discourse‑pragmatic challenges.
Large language models (LLMs) have been widely applied to automated essay scoring (AES) and automated feedback generation (AFG). However, existing studies rely primarily on prompt engineering or supervised fine-tuning, while systematic research on reinforcement learning (RL) post-training and automated evaluation of feedback quality remains limited.
arXiv:2606. 11070v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in reasoning and tool-calling capabilities of large language models (LLMs) have enabled increasingly capable agentic systems.
