SEAR: Segment-Evidence-Aware Routing for Weak-to-Strong Multilingual Speech MCQ

The paper presents SEAR, a system for Task 2 of the second Multilingual Conversational Speech Language Model Challenge. It adapts Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B-Instruct with a segment‑evidence‑aware pipeline that converts timestamped ASR into event spans, expands and crops them, and then generates both semantic and acoustic multiple‑choice questions using Qwen3.6-27B and Gemini 3.1 Flash‑Lite. After rigorous checks, 359,825 verified MCQs across 21 languages and accents are produced, and the system achieves 90.92% accuracy on the official evaluation set.
