VideoFDB - Perception: leaderboard

Full-duplex conversation from VideoFDB (Mazumdar et al., 2026): 105 held-out test clips of seven nonverbal conversational dynamics, such as pauses, backchannels, laughter and interruptions, are streamed in real time to a full-duplex speech agent that also sees the user, at 1 FPS for most agents. A gpt-4o judge scores the transcribed, time-stamped response from 0 to 5 on fluency, conversational flow and semantic grounding, and this board averages the three; higher is better.

Metric: gpt-4o judge score (0-5; the 105 held-out test clips of the seven nonverbal conversational dynamics scored for perception (237 clips of 11 dynamics in the full benchmark), streamed in real time; the judge reads the transcribed, time-stamped agent response with the clip annotations; mean of the fluency, conversational-flow and semantic-grounding rubrics; user audio and video streamed, video at 1 FPS (Mini-Omni2: one frame per user speech segment)). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Rough model projection: around 2026. 7 models tracked.
