ES-MemEval QA (Long Context) - User Modeling: leaderboard

Questions that need the user's traits, preferences and changing state inferred (251 questions). ES-MemEval (Chen et al., Tongji University, 2026) asks questions about the long emotional-support chat histories of 18 virtual users (about 22 sessions and 13K tokens each), scored by token-level F1 in percent against human-checked reference answers; higher is better. The model answers from the dialogue history within the context window the paper gave it: 128K tokens for the open models, 4K for gpt-3.5-turbo and 16K for gpt-4o.
