Chinese Competitive Debating Dataset and Benchmark

The paper introduces a Chinese competitive debating dataset and benchmark, comprising 148 fully adjudicated matches with 2,698 stages and 20,542 exchange units, all annotated by 120 professional judges using a shared rubric. It offers manually verified transcripts, segmentation, and preserved scores, votes, and rationales, enabling evaluation of large language models on winner-tendency prediction, stage-score prediction, and best-debater prediction. Zero‑shot experiments show the best models achieve 66.2% winner‑prediction accuracy, a 0.250 Pearson correlation for stage scores, and 56.8% best‑debater accuracy.

EviSI: An Evidence-Based Evaluation Agent for Simultaneous Interpreting

EviSI is an evidence‑based evaluation agent for low‑latency simultaneous speech‑to‑speech translation. It combines Multidimensional Quality Metrics with interpreter‑developed criteria, using shared source evidence to assess four dimensions—Anchor, Event, Logic, and Fluency—while deduplicating verified errors before scoring. On English‑to‑Chinese and Chinese‑to‑English data, EviSI’s rankings correlate strongly with human judgments, outperforming BLEU and COMET, and its multilingual extension maintains these correlations across five language directions.

Inverse Turing Bench: Evaluating Language Models as Judges of Human vs. AI Dialogue

The paper introduces Inverse Turing Bench, a benchmark designed to assess how well language models can distinguish between human-only and human-AI dialogues in multi-turn text. It provides paired dialogue transcripts and evaluates models on correctly identifying the type of conversation. Preliminary results show GPTZero, Claude Opus-4.6, and GPT-5.5 achieving the highest accuracies of 89.41%, 77.92%, and 75.94% respectively, highlighting both the strengths and limitations of statistical versus semantic detection approaches.

VākQA: A Benchmark and Evaluation Study for Telugu Spoken Factoid Question Answering

VākQA is a newly introduced benchmark for Telugu spoken factoid question answering, comprising 2,001 question‑answer pairs across six domains, 2.53 hours of speech audio, bilingual transcriptions, and human‑verified reference answers. The study validates automatic evaluation methods against human judgments, finding that Gemini‑as‑a‑judge best approximates human ratings but is inconsistently strict, while open‑weight judges tend to penalize correct Telugu answers that differ in surface form. Using this validated setup, the authors benchmark proprietary and open‑weight models, highlighting challenges such as cultural specificity loss in translation, phonetic confusions from speech input, and compounded errors from cascaded ASR‑MT pipelines.
