Logbook: Extremely Long-form Audio Event Understanding

Excerpt

arXiv:2610.07338v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Audio benchmarks are built around short, pre-segmented clips, limiting model design to brief inputs or fixed vocabularies. To close this gap, we introduce Logbook, a benchmark for hour-scale audio understanding, with recordings ranging from ten minutes to six days. Given a continuous audio recording and an event label vocabulary, a system must predict a gap-free segmentation with an event label and a description per segment. We compare 52 systems
