UniDial-EvalKit: A Unified Toolkit for Evaluating Multi-Faceted Conversational Abilities

Benchmarking AI systems in multi-turn interactive scenarios is essential for understanding their practical capabilities in real-world applications. However, existing evaluation protocols are highly heterogeneous, differing significantly in dataset formats, model interfaces, and evaluation pipelines, which severely impedes systematic comparison. In this work, we present UniDial-EvalKit (UDE), a unified evaluation toolkit for assessing interactive AI systems. The core contribution of UDE lies in its holistic unification: it standardizes heterogeneous data formats into a universal schema, streamlines complex evaluation pipelines through a modular architecture, and aligns metric calculations under a consistent scoring interface. It also supports efficient large-scale evaluation through parallel generation and scoring, as well as checkpoint-based caching to eliminate redundant computation. Validated across diverse multi-turn benchmarks, UDE not only guarantees high reproducibility through standardized workflows and transparent logging, but also significantly improves evaluation efficiency and extensibility. We make the complete toolkit and evaluation scripts publicly available to foster a standardized benchmarking ecosystem and accelerate future breakthroughs in interactive AI.

EvolMem: A Cognitive-Driven Benchmark for Multi-Session Dialogue Memory

Despite recent advances in understanding and leveraging long-range conversational memory, existing benchmarks still lack systematic evaluation of large language models(LLMs) across diverse memory dimensions, particularly in multi-session settings. In this work, we propose EvolMem, a new benchmark for assessing multi-session memory capabilities of LLMs and agent systems. EvolMem is grounded in cognitive psychology and encompasses both declarative and non-declarative memory, further decomposed into multiple fine-grained abilities. To construct the benchmark, we introduce a hybrid data synthesis framework that consists of topic-initiated generation and narrative-inspired transformations. This framework enables scalable generation of multi-session conversations with controllable complexity, accompanied by sample-specific evaluation guidelines. Extensive evaluation reveals that no LLM consistently outperforms others across all memory dimensions. Moreover, agent memory mechanisms do not necessarily enhance LLMs' capabilities and often exhibit notable efficiency limitations.
