# Omni-DuplexEval
[**📖 arXiv**](https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.17360) | [**GitHub**](https://github.com/OpenBMB/Omni-DuplexEval)
Omni-DuplexEval is a benchmark for evaluating real-time duplex multimodal interaction. Unlike conventional offline video understanding benchmarks, Omni-DuplexEval focuses on streaming settings where models must continuously process evolving multimodal inputs and decide what to respond and when to respond.
The benchmark contains two scenarios:
* Real-Time Description (RTD): evaluates continuous streaming description ability.
* Proactive Reminder (PR): evaluates event-aware and proactive interaction ability.
Omni-DuplexEval contains 660 samples in total, including 300 samples for Real-Time Description and 360 samples for Proactive Reminder. The dataset consists of 9 tasks with human-curated timestamp-level annotations.
## Benchmark Structure
### Real-Time Description (RTD)
RTD evaluates whether models can continuously describe evolving video content under streaming settings.
Included tasks:
* RTD_Omni
* RTD_counting
* RTD_fine_grained_movement
* RTD_interaction_relation
* RTD_OCR
* RTD_world_knowledge
### Proactive Reminder (PR)
PR evaluates whether models can identify relevant events and respond at the appropriate time.
Included tasks:
* PR_event_reminder
* PR_post_event_reminder
* PR_correction
## Data Format
Each sample contains the following fields:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `id` | Unique sample identifier |
| `video` | Video file |
| `question_audio` | Audio version of the question. The audio duration matches the video duration. |
| `question_text` | Text version of the question |
| `answer1` | Reference answer 1 |
| `answer2` | Reference answer 2 |
| `reminder1` | Timestamp annotation 1 |
| `reminder2` | Timestamp annotation 2 |
| `video_type` | Video category |
| `video_duration` | Video duration |
### Annotation Details
Question Audio
question_audio is aligned with the full video duration.
* For RTD tasks, the question is asked at the beginning of the video.
* For PR tasks, the question may occur at arbitrary timestamps.
Reference Answers
* answer1 and answer2 provide human-annotated reference responses.
* In correction tasks, answer1 additionally contains the corrected target response.
* In PR_event_reminder and PR_post_event_reminder, the answer fields are empty.
Reminder Timestamps
* reminder1 and reminder2 store timestamp annotations related to reminder events.
* In correction tasks, reminder1 contains the timestamp of the incorrect user statement/event.
* In RTD tasks, reminder fields are empty.
## Data Collection and Safety
Videos are collected from publicly accessible platforms such as YouTube and Bilibili. The dataset does not contain personal sensitive information.
During dataset construction:
* RTD videos are selected to contain clear temporal dynamics and continuously evolving subjects.
* PR videos are selected to contain explicit and unambiguous events for stable evaluation.
All samples undergo manual inspection, and potentially unsafe or high-risk content is excluded.
