They are increasingly used against fake content and plagiarism, but nobody had tested them systematically against rewriting. 2. **[A Critical Evaluation of Evaluations for Long-form Question Answering](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/xu-2023-critical-evaluation-evaluations-long-form/)** *(2023 · 112 citations)* Evaluating long-form question answering (LFQA) is hard because answers are open-ended. Earlier work mostly relied on crowdworkers' A/B preferences and string-overlap metrics such as ROUGE. Xu et al. study both human and automatic evaluation of long answers. They recruited domain experts in seven fields through… 3. **[VeriScore: Evaluating the factuality of verifiable claims in long-form text generation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/song-2024-veriscore-evaluating-factuality-verifiable-claims/)** *(2024 · 69 citations)* Metrics for long-form factuality such as FactScore and SAFE split a text into atomic claims and check every one. They assume all content can be checked. In tasks like long-form QA (LFQA), responses mix facts with analogies, advice, opinions and hypotheticals, so these metrics unfairly penalise models. ## Co-authors here 6 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Mohit Iyyer](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mohit-iyyer/) ×3 - [Eunsol Choi](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/eunsol-choi/) - [Fangyuan Xu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/fangyuan-xu/) - [John Wieting](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/john-wieting/) - [Kalpesh Krishna](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/kalpesh-krishna/) - [Marzena Karpinska](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/marzena-karpinska/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/): [ACL 2023](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/2023/) - [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/): [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2024](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/2024/) - [Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/neural-information-processing-systems/): [NeurIPS 2023](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/neural-information-processing-systems/2023/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 307 times (of the 141,840 papers whose bibliographies we read); [22 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yixiao-song/cited-by/).
