OpenAudioBench
Models answer spoken questions in five sets: Reasoning QA, Llama Questions, Web Questions, TriviaQA and AlpacaEval. Knowledge sets use accuracy and the open sets use a model score.
Released with Baichuan-Omni-1.5. Labs report the five subsets separately.
- Level
- Everyday Most adults, without training
- Scored
- Graded by a model A language model scores each response, usually against a rubric.
- Answers
- Open-ended Free-form text, documents, designs or media judged as a whole.
LongCat-Flash-Omni leads with 80.1%
