In this paper, we present the MetricX-24 submissions to the WMT24 Metrics Shared Task and provide details on the improvements we made over the previous version of MetricX. Our primary submission is a hybrid reference-based/-free metric, which can score a translation irrespective of whether it is given the source segment, the reference, or both. The metric is trained on previous WMT data in a two-stage fashion, first on the DA ratings only, then on a mixture of MQM and DA ratings. The training set in both stages is augmented with synthetic examples that we created to make the metric more robust to several common failure modes, such as fluent but unrelated translation, or undertranslation. We demonstrate the benefits of the individual modifications via an ablation study, and show a significant performance increase over MetricX-23 on the WMT23 MQM ratings, as well as our new synthetic challenge set.

ConsistencyChecker: Tree-based Evaluation of LLM Generalization Capabilities
ConsistencyChecker ranks LLMs by how well they survive chains of reversible transformations, and those scores track WMT 2024 translation quality rankings (r > 0.7) without using WMT paired data.

Quality-Aware Decoding: Unifying Quality Estimation and Decoding
A uni-directional token-level QE model that scores partial translations is merged into beam search, improving NMT quality over N-best re-ranking on WMT23 English-German and Chinese-English.

How to Select Datapoints for Efficient Human Evaluation of NLG Models?
Selecting human-evaluation items by metric variance, metric consistency, output diversity, or IRT-based informativeness matches random-sampling ranking accuracy with roughly 70% of the annotation budget in WMT23 and SummEval.
