IndicContextEval (2026) tests speech recognition by audio language models on 56 hours of natural read and extempore speech from 555 speakers in eight Indian languages and 23 professional domains, with transcripts in the native script. This board is word error rate in percent when the prompt adds a list of 20 to 30 domain entities written in the native script, measuring how well models use textual context; lower is better.
