IndicQE-APE - Segment-Level Quality Estimation: leaderboard

IndicQE-APE (2026) consolidates WMT Indic quality-estimation and post-editing data over nine translation directions. This board scores an LLM prompted zero-shot to rate each machine translation from 0 to 100 (GEMBA-DA) by the Spearman correlation with human direct assessment, averaged over the nine directions of the challenge test, from -1 to 1; higher is better.

Metric: Macro Spearman correlation with human direct assessment (-1 to 1; segment-level quality estimation of machine translation by zero-shot GEMBA-DA prompting, the model returning a 0-100 score per segment; within-language correlation averaged over nine directions (six English to Indic, three into English) of the 12,730-segment challenge test; each model over the segments it answers in the required format). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around February 2027. 6 models tracked.
