Systems and methods for automatic evaluation of the quality of NLG outputs. In some aspects of the technology, a learned evaluation model may be pretrained first using NLG model pretraining tasks, and then with further pretraining tasks using automatically generated synthetic sentence pairs. In some cases, following pretraining, the evaluation model may be further fine-tuned using a set of human-graded sentence pairs, so that it learns to approximate the grades allocated by the human evaluators.

In some cases, following fine-tuning, the learned evaluation model may be distilled into a student model.
