Hy‑MultiTurn is a Chinese benchmark designed to evaluate deep multi‑turn dialogue understanding over long interactions. It introduces six controlled evaluation modes—constraint memory, precise execution, constraint synthesis, object localization, action suppression, and reference resolution—across 209 tasks ranging from 12 to 76 turns, incorporating dialogue length, irrelevant distractions, and colloquial phrasing. Testing 22 state‑of‑the‑art models shows the benchmark is highly challenging, with even the best model meeting all criteria only 41.1% of the time and no model excelling in every mode.

The paper introduces ECHO, a paired diagnostic benchmark for evaluating Chinese real‑time spoken dialogue systems on turn‑taking. ECHO pairs examples that share the same overlap transcript but differ in preceding multi‑turn context, requiring either Yield or Keep actions, and also includes off‑talk cases to test unnecessary yielding. Experiments on four speech systems reveal that three systems over‑yield, correctly keeping the floor on fewer than 13% of backchannels, while the fourth system shows a more balanced performance, illustrating that interruption‑only evaluation can overestimate turn‑taking reliability.
CallScreenBench is a benchmark for evaluating small, on-device language models that act as phone secretaries, focusing on their ability to handle unknown inbound calls without a cooperative task. The benchmark measures owner endorsement through five call-and-note metrics, each paired with counter-metrics and uncertainty estimates, and includes guardedness diagnostics to identify safe, tool‑free proxies. Results across 4‑bit checkpoints of 0.6‑4 B parameter models show varying performance on service, recall, plausibility, and triage discrimination, highlighting trade‑offs between quality and guardedness.
