+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-dialog** is the pre-trained evaluator for the dialogue response generation task. It can evaluate the model output from five dimensions:
+
+- *naturalness*
+- *coherence*
+- *engagingness*
+- *groundedness*
+- *understandability*
+
+
+## Usage
