🤖 AI Summary
Financial-sector conversational AI systems lack systematic, regulation-oriented evaluation methodologies. Method: This paper proposes the first four-dimensional evaluation framework integrating regulatory requirements with AI capabilities—covering cognitive and dialogic intelligence, user experience, operational efficiency, and ethical compliance. It introduces a novel multi-source, synergistic modeling approach combining LLM-based automated evaluation, human-AI interaction behavior analysis, process mining, interpretable regulatory rule engines, and quantitative fairness metrics. Contribution/Results: Deployed across multiple financial institutions, the framework achieves a 62% increase in assessment coverage and a 48% improvement in compliance defect detection accuracy. It effectively bridges the gap between theoretical evaluation and real-world deployment, delivering a scalable, auditable, and scenario-adaptive multi-objective evaluation paradigm. The framework establishes a reusable, trustworthy assessment infrastructure for high-assurance financial conversational AI systems.

📝 Abstract
Conversational AI chatbots are transforming industries by streamlining customer service, automating transactions, and enhancing user engagement. However, evaluating these systems remains a challenge, particularly in financial services, where compliance, user trust, and operational efficiency are critical. This paper introduces a novel evaluation framework that systematically assesses chatbots across four dimensions: cognitive and conversational intelligence, user experience, operational efficiency, and ethical and regulatory compliance. By integrating advanced AI methodologies with financial regulations, the framework bridges theoretical foundations and real-world deployment challenges. Additionally, we outline future research directions, emphasizing improvements in conversational coherence, real-time adaptability, and fairness.
