CharacterEval: A Chinese Benchmark for Role-Playing Conversational Agent Evaluation
<div align="center"> <img src="assets/example.png"> </div>CharacterEval is a Chinese benchmark designed for evaluating Role-Playing Conversational Agents (RPCAs). It consists of 1,785 multi-turn role-playing dialogues and 23,020 examples featuring 77 characters derived from Chinese novels and scripts. Additionally, it provides in-depth character profiles sourced from Baidu Baike. Furthermore, CharacterEval employs a multifaceted evaluation approach, encompassing thirteen targeted metrics across four dimensions. To facilitate evaluation, we have also developed a character-based reward model (CharacterRM) based on manual annotations. Experimental results demonstrate that the pearson correlation coefficient of CharacterRM with human significantly surpasses that of GPT-4. Please refer to our paper for more details (https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.01275).
News
[2024-11-20] We upload the training data for reward model.
[2024-5-31] We publish the document for manual annotation (Predefined Annotated Examples of CharacterEval.pdf), which primarily includes descriptions of each dimension and two examples (one with the highest score and one with the lowest score). We recruited a total of 12 annotators, divided into two groups, to score all the cases. For cases with disagreement, discussions are held to reach a consistent score. Additionally, these examples will be used as demonstrations for in-context learning with GPT-4.

Generate response
Here we provide a script to call ChatGLM3 to get the response based on the context and character profiles. You could adjust it to adapt the input format of your model.
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python get_response.py
# data/test_data.jsonl + data/character_profiles.json -> results/generation.jsonl
Transform format
As mentioned in our paper, we introduce annotators to sparsely evaluate the performance matrix. This approach entails that each example in CharacterEval is assessed using a subset of all subjective metrics, leading to more differentiated evaluation results. So we need transform the format of genereted result for reward model evaluation.
python transform_format.py
# results/generation.jsonl + data/id2metric.json -> results/generation_trans.jsonl
Run CharacterRM
Now, we should download the BaichuanCharRM and use it to evaluate the generated responses.
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python run_char_rm.py
# results/generation_trans.jsonl + data/character_profiles.json -> results/evaluation
Compute evaluation scores
The last step is just to compute the average evaluation score on each metric.
python compute_score.py
For reproduction of our results, we provide the intermediate running results of five open-source models (under results/), including ChatGLM-6B, Baichuan-7B-Chat, XVERSE-7B-Chat, InternLM-7B-Chat and Qwen-7B-Chat. All of the model checkpoints are downloaded from Hugginface.
