Problems and Countermeasures in Natural Language Processing Evaluation
This addresses evaluation limitations that hinder NLP progress, proposing a novel framework for more reliable assessments.
The paper identifies and classifies problems in existing NLP evaluation methods, then proposes a new human-like machine language ability evaluation framework based on reliability, difficulty, and validity principles.
Evaluation in natural language processing guides and promotes research on models and methods. In recent years, new evalua-tion data sets and evaluation tasks have been continuously proposed. At the same time, a series of problems exposed by ex-isting evaluation have also restricted the progress of natural language processing technology. Starting from the concept, com-position, development and meaning of natural language evaluation, this article classifies and summarizes the tasks and char-acteristics of mainstream natural language evaluation, and then summarizes the problems and causes of natural language pro-cessing evaluation. Finally, this article refers to the human language ability evaluation standard, puts forward the concept of human-like machine language ability evaluation, and proposes a series of basic principles and implementation ideas for hu-man-like machine language ability evaluation from the three aspects of reliability, difficulty and validity.
