MuLA-Bench - Acoustic Evidence: leaderboard

The acoustic-evidence track of MuLA-Bench (Yang et al., 2026), a benchmark of open-ended questions over long in-the-wild recordings, answered from the audio alone: 1,198 questions about naturally occurring non-speech or paralinguistic sounds such as laughter, applause and music. Each answer is judged correct or wrong by GPT-5.6 Sol against the reference with rubric and timing checks; accuracy in percent, higher is better.

Metric: Accuracy (%; the 1,198 acoustic-track questions about naturally occurring non-speech or paralinguistic events such as laughter, applause and music; open-ended questions over in-the-wild long-form recordings (median 36.8 minutes, capped at three hours) in the source language, answered from the full recording without transcripts, audio clipped only to a local model's native input limit; each answer judged correct or not by GPT-5.6 Sol on a route-specific binary rubric with programmatic structural and 3-second timing checks; missing or invalid answers scored wrong). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around February 2027. 10 models tracked.
