This paper proposes a novel evaluation framework for chatbots and dialogue systems that can create consistent and human-like conversations. The existing evaluation metrics focus on query-oriented factualness and language quality assessment, but lack practical value. To address this gap, the authors construct a Memory-Augmented Dialogue Benchmark (MADail-Bench) that covers various memory-recalling paradigms based on cognitive science and psychology theories. The benchmark assesses two tasks separately: memory retrieval and memory recognition with the incorporation of both passive and proactive memory recall data. New scoring criteria are introduced to evaluate generated responses, including memory injection, emotion support proficiency, and intimacy. Results from cutting-edge embedding models and large language models on this benchmark indicate potential for further advancement.

This paper helps chatbots have better conversations by creating a new way to test them. Right now, we use simple tests like how well they can answer questions or how good their grammar is. But these tests don’t show if the chatbot is really understanding and responding in a human-like way. To fix this, the authors created a special benchmark that tests chatbots’ ability to recall memories and respond emotionally. The results from some of the best AI models so far show that there’s still room for improvement.
