PitchBench - Pitch under Loudness Variation: leaderboard

Pitch hearing in audio-language models (PitchBench, Liessens Dujardin et al., 2026): naming the pitch of a single tone played at five loudness levels from -30 to +6 dBFS (200 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 at five loudness levels). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around July 2028. 6 models tracked.
