What they are

  • Require ground truth; described as "less useful but still worth a mention" 1:36
  • Metrics like BLEU and ROUGE, originally designed for translation and summarization 1:36
  • Work by comparing generated text to an ideal reference text (ideal summary/translation) and measuring word/symbol overlap, in a few more complicated ways 1:36

Limitation

  • Useful in some scenarios, but overlap in symbols is often not very meaningful as a quality signal 1:58
