# Introduction
**LongBench** is the first benchmark for bilingual, multitask, and comprehensive assessment of **long context understanding** capabilities of large language models. LongBench includes different languages (Chinese and English) to provide a more comprehensive evaluation of the large models' multilingual capabilities on long contexts. In addition, LongBench is composed of six major categories and twenty one different tasks, covering key long-text application scenarios such as single-document QA, multi-document QA, summarization, few-shot learning, synthetic tasks and code completion.
We are fully aware of the potentially high costs involved in the model evaluation process, especially in the context of long context scenarios (such as manual annotation costs or API call costs). Therefore, we adopt a fully automated evaluation method, aimed at measuring and evaluating the model's ability to understand long contexts at the lowest cost.
LongBench includes 14 English tasks, 5 Chinese tasks, and 2 code tasks, with the average length of most tasks ranging from 5k to 15k, and a total of 4,750 test data. For detailed statistics and construction methods of LongBench tasks, please refer [here](task.md). In addition, we provide LongBench-E, a test set with a more uniform length distribution constructed by uniform sampling, with comparable amounts of data in the 0-4k, 4k-8k, and 8k+ length intervals to provide an analysis of the model's performance variations at different input lengths.

# Task construction
> Note: For all tasks constructed from existing datasets, we use data from the validation or test set of the existing dataset (except for VCSUM).
- The tasks of [HotpotQA](https://hotpotqa.github.io/), [2WikiMultihopQA](https://aclanthology.org/2020.coling-main.580/), [MuSiQue](https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.00573), and [DuReader](https://github.com/baidu/DuReader) are built based on the original datasets and processed to be suitable for long context evaluation. Specifically, for questions in the validation set, we select the evidence passage that contains the answer and several distracting articles. These articles together with the original question constitute the input of the tasks.
- The tasks of MultiFiedQA-zh and MultiFieldQA-en consist of long artical data from about 10 sources, including Latex papers, judicial documents, government work reports, and PDF documents indexed by Google. For each long artical, we invite several PhD and master students to annotate, i.e., to ask questions based on the long artical and give the correct answers. To better automate evaluation, we ask the annotators to propose questions with definitive answers as much as possible.
- The tasks of [NarrativeQA](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1712.07040.pdf), [Qasper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2105.03011.pdf), [GovReport](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2104.02112.pdf), [QMSum](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2104.05938.pdf) and [MultiNews](https://aclanthology.org/P19-1102.pdf) directly use the data provided by the original papers. In the specific construction, we use the template provided by [ZeroSCROLLS](https://www.zero.scrolls-benchmark.com/) to convert the corresponding data into pure text input.
- The [VCSUM](https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.05280) task is built based on the original dataset, and we design a corresponding template to convert the corresponding data into pure text input.
- The [TriviaQA](https://nlp.cs.washington.edu/triviaqa/) task is constructed in the manner of [CoLT5](https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.09752), which provides several examples of question and answering based on documents, and requires the language model to answer related questions based on new documents.
- The tasks of [SAMSum](https://aclanthology.org/D19-5409.pdf), [TREC](https://aclanthology.org/C02-1150.pdf) and [LSHT](http://tcci.ccf.org.cn/conference/2014/dldoc/evatask6.pdf) are built based on the original datasets. For each question in the validation set, we sample several data from the training set to form few-shot examples. These examples together with the questions in the validation set constitute the input for this task.
- The PassageRetrieval-en task is constructed based on English Wikipedia. For each piece of data, we randomly sample 30 paragraphs from English Wikipedia and select one for summarization (using GPT-3.5-Turbo). This task requires the model to give the original paragraph name to which the summary corresponds.
- The PassageCount task is constructed based on the English wiki. For each piece of data, we randomly sample several passages from English Wikipedia, repeat each paragraph at random several times, and finally shuffle the paragraphs. This task requires the model to determine the total number of different paragraphs in the given context.
- The PasskeyRetrieval-zh task is constructed based on [C4](https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.10683). For each piece of data, we randomly sample several Chinese paragraphs from C4 and select one of them for summarization (using GPT-3.5-Turbo). This task requires the model to give the original paragraph name to which the summary corresponds.
- For the [LCC](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.14893) task, we sample from the original code completion dataset. In the [RepoBench-P](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.03091) task, we select the most challenging XF-F (Cross-File-First) setting from the original dataset and refer to the Oracle-Filled scenario in the paper. For each original piece of data, we randomly extract multiple cross-file code snippets, including the gold cross-file code snippet, and concatenate them as input, requiring the model to effectively use cross-file code for completion.
