G-Eval: NLG Evaluation using Gpt-4 with Better Human Alignment
Open accessAbstract
The quality of texts generated by natural language generation (NLG) systems is hard to measure automatically.Conventional referencebased metrics, such as BLEU and ROUGE, have been shown to have relatively low correlation with human judgments, especially for tasks that require creativity and diversity.Recent studies suggest using large language models (LLMs) as reference-free metrics for NLG evaluation, which have the benefit of being applicable to new tasks that lack human references.However, these LLM-based evaluators still have lower human correspondence than medium-size neural evaluators.In this work, we present G-EVAL, a framework of using large language models with chain-of-thoughts (CoT) and a form-filling paradigm, to assess the quality of NLG outputs.We experiment with two generation tasks, text summarization and dialogue generation.We show that G-EVAL with GPT-4 as the backbone model achieves a Spearman correlation of 0.514 with human on summarization task, outperforming all previous methods by a large margin.We also propose analysis on the behavior of LLM-based evaluators, and highlight the potential concern of LLM-based evaluators having a bias towards the LLM-generated texts. 1

Section 3.2 describes using G-EVAL to assess generated-text quality, but Section 4 Analysis contradicts the claim that it ensured an objective comparison: G-EVAL-4 favored GPT-3.5 summaries even when human judges preferred human-written ones. The Limitations section also warns of bias toward LLM-generated text. (LLM, conf=0.86)

The Introduction and Conclusion report that G-EVAL’s scores correlate well with human judgments on summarization and dialogue-generation benchmarks, supporting the claim that it can approximate some human evaluations. They do not establish that LLM-as-a-Judge models match the depth of manual evaluation or provide better consistency and stability than human evaluators. Section 4 also cautions that G-EVAL may favor LLM-generated text. (LLM, conf=0.85)

Jinji, M., Atarashi, K., Takeuchi, K., & Kashima, H. (2026) · Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: ACL 2026 · doi:10.18653/v1/2026.findings-acl.1351
“Given this limitation, recent work has explored the use of LLMs as scalable evaluators to score open-ended outputs or generate preference labels (Ding et al., 2023; Zheng et al., 2023; Chen et al., 2024; Liu et al., 2023).”

“…with n-gram overlap [Papineni et al., 2002, Lin, 2004], LLM-as-a-judge protocols that grade win rate or per-facet quality [Zheng et al., 2023, Liu et al., 2023, Gu et al., 2025], or task-tailored rubrics [Es et al., 2024, Laban et al., 2024, Akarajaradwong et al., 2025, Magesh et al., 2025].”
JudgeMoE: Distributional Aggregation for LLM-as-a-Judge
Liu, Y., James, J., Wang, Y., Zhao, K., Xiao, C., & Lin, C. (2026) · arXiv · doi:10.48550/arxiv.2610.07109
“LLMs are now widely used as automatic evaluators for summarization, dialogue, reasoning, and translation (Liu et al., 2023; Zheng et al., 2023).”
Self-citationYESciEval: Robust LLM-as-a-Judge for Scientific Question Answering
D'Souza, J., Giglou, H. B., & Münch, Q. (2025) · arXiv · doi:10.48550/arxiv.2505.14279
“Most prior evaluation work relies on proprietary GPT models (Wang et al., 2023a; Dubois et al., 2023; Liu et al., 2023; Fu et al., 2024), raising issues of transparency and high costs at scale (Kim et al., 2023, 2024).”
Role-Augmented Intent-Driven Generative Search Engine Optimization
Chen, X., Bao, J., Wu, H., Chen, Z., Pan, L., & Liao, Y. (2025) · arXiv · doi:10.48550/arxiv.2508.11158
“Although GEO originally used G-EVAL [15] to simulate human subjective judgment, its evaluation prompts demonstrate inconsistent scoring granularity and ambiguous criteria across dimensions, which may affect the stability of cross-method comparisons.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
