+Pre-trained evaluator in EMNLP 2022 paper
+
+*[Towards a Unified Multi-Dimensional Evaluator for Text Generation](https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.07197)*
+
+## Introduction
+
+**Multi-dimensional evaluation** is the dominant paradigm for human evaluation in Natural Language Generation (NLG), i.e., evaluating the generated text from multiple explainable dimensions, such as coherence and fluency.
+
+However, automatic evaluation in NLG is still dominated by similarity-based metrics (e.g., ROUGE, BLEU), but they are not sufficient to portray the difference between the advanced generation models.
+
+Therefore, we propose **UniEval** to bridge this gap so that a more comprehensive and fine-grained evaluation of NLG systems can be achieved.
+
+## Pre-trained Evaluator
+
+**unieval-intermediate** is a pre-trained Boolean Answer Generator after performing intermediate multi-task learning. On top of this checkpoint, you can also train a custom evaluator for a specific NLG task.
+
+## Usage 
+
+Please refer to [our GitHub repository](https://github.com/maszhongming/UniEval).
