Evaluation of Massive Multimodal Audio Reasoning capabilities on the MMAR dataset, reporting the Normalized Judge Score.

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 | Massive Multimodal Audio Reasoning |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | MMAR |
| Metric | Normalized Judge Score |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 9 of 9 |
| 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

- [Normalized Judge Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/massive-multimodal-audio-reasoning-on-mmar.md?metric=Normalized%20Judge%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.
