Evaluation of model performance on the L-Eval QA dataset for Long-context Question Answering, reporting NQ, NarQA, Crse, and Average scores.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Long-context Question Answering |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | L-Eval QA |
| Metric | NQ |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 13 of 13 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [NQ](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/long-context-question-answering-on-l-eval-qa.md?metric=NQ>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [NarQA](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/long-context-question-answering-on-l-eval-qa.md?metric=NarQA>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Crse](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/long-context-question-answering-on-l-eval-qa.md?metric=Crse>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Avg Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/long-context-question-answering-on-l-eval-qa.md?metric=Avg%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
