PitchBench - Hidden Tone in Silence: leaderboard

Pitch hearing in audio-language models (PitchBench, Liessens Dujardin et al., 2026): naming the pitch of one five-second tone placed somewhere in a 60-second silent clip (160 stimuli), with synthetic stimuli. A pitch answer counts when any of MIDI number, scientific pitch notation or frequency is right; accuracy in percent, higher is better.

Metric: Accuracy (%; name the pitch of one tone hidden in 60 s of silence). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around April 2028. 6 models tracked.
