为大模型对话系统设计情感社交策略评估协议,提升生成响应的可信度。

Socio-Emotional Response Generation: A Human Evaluation Protocol for LLM-Based Conversational Systems

  • 先规划情感社交策略再生成回复,提升响应质量
  • 人工评估显示现有自动指标存在局限性
  • 提供可公开使用的标注平台与数据集

对话系统已能生成流畅且相关性强的回复,但对当前大型语言模型(LLMs)背后的社会情感策略缺乏可见性与控制力,影响其在关键应用中的透明度与可信度。此外,现有自动化评估指标无法超越数据集真实答案来有效衡量生成内容的质量。本文提出一种神经架构,在生成回复前引入社会情感策略规划的中间步骤。对比开源基线LLM与加入该规划模块后的模型输出,同时分析自动化指标与人工标注结果的差异。我们设计了一种新型评估协议,包含粗粒度一致性评估及细粒度的社会情感维度标注。研究发现,预测策略序列并据此生成回复,相比端到端直接生成效果更优。结果也揭示了当前评估指标在生成内容评价上的局限性。代码与标注数据已公开,供未来模型评估使用。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Conversational systems are now capable of producing impressive and generally relevant responses. However, we have no visibility nor control of the socio-emotional strategies behind state-of-the-art Large Language Models (LLMs), which poses a problem in terms of their transparency and thus their trustworthiness for critical applications. Another issue is that current automated metrics are not able to properly evaluate the quality of generated responses beyond the dataset's ground truth. In this paper, we propose a neural architecture that includes an intermediate step in planning socio-emotional strategies before response generation. We compare the performance of open-source baseline LLMs to the outputs of these same models augmented with our planning module. We also contrast the outputs obtained from automated metrics and evaluation results provided by human annotators. We describe a novel evaluation protocol that includes a coarse-grained consistency evaluation, as well as a finer-grained annotation of the responses on various social and emotional criteria. Our study shows that predicting a sequence of expected strategy labels and using this sequence to generate a response yields better results than a direct end-to-end generation scheme. It also highlights the divergences and the limits of current evaluation metrics for generated content. The code for the annotation platform and the annotated data are made publicly available for the evaluation of future models.
