MEE4 and XLsim : IIIT HYD’s Submissions’ for WMT23 Metrics Shared Task

Ananya Mukherjee, Manish Shrivastava


Abstract
This paper presents our contributions to the WMT2023 shared metrics task, consisting of two distinct evaluation approaches: a) Unsupervised Metric (MEE4) and b) Supervised Metric (XLSim). MEE4 represents an unsupervised, reference-based assessment metric that quantifies linguistic features, encompassing lexical, syntactic, semantic, morphological, and contextual similarities, leveraging embeddings. In contrast, XLsim is a supervised reference-based evaluation metric, employing a Siamese Architecture, which regresses on Direct Assessments (DA) from previous WMT News Translation shared tasks from 2017-2022. XLsim is trained using XLM-RoBERTa (base) on English-German reference and mt pairs with human scores.
