MusTBENCH - Temporal Source Grounding: leaderboard

Metric: Temporal Source Grounding (TSG, 400 questions): the model gives the time at which a named instrument or the vocals first start or last stop; score is the mean of onset and offset Hit@3s, the share of predicted timestamps within 3 seconds of the ground truth (%, 0-100), on the MusTBench test set (full-length MTG-Jamendo and Slakh2100 tracks, music-expert-validated questions), zero-shot with the full track and a task instruction, temperature 0, unparseable timestamps and intervals counted wrong; higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around January 2027. 12 models tracked.
