  abstract  = {There is no agreed upon standard for the evaluation of conversational dialog
	systems, which are well-known to be hard to evaluate due to the difficulty in
	pinning down metrics that will correspond to human judgements and the
	subjective nature of human judgment itself. We explored the possibility of
	using Grice's Maxims to evaluate effective communication in conversation. We
	collected some system generated dialogs from popular conversational chatbots
	across the spectrum and conducted a survey to see how the human judgements
	based on Gricean maxims correlate, and if such human judgments can be used as
	an effective evaluation metric for conversational dialog.},
