Hy-MultiTurn: A Six-Dimensional Benchmark for Deep Multi-Turn Dialogue Understanding

arXiv:2607.29196v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-running multi-turn interactions with chatbots and agents are now common, and a correct response often depends on remembering earlier details, tracking later revisions, identifying intended objects or referents, and withholding action when required conditions are unmet. Existing multi-turn benchmarks typically cover short exchanges and do not fully evaluate these capabilities in long multi-turn interactions, particularly in Chinese, while offering limited insight into how and why models fail. To address these limitations, we analyze real chatbot failures to identify six recurring mechanisms and use them to define six controlled evaluation modes in Hy-MultiTurn, a Chinese benchmark for deep multi-turn dialogue understanding. The six modes evaluate constraint memory, precise execution, constraint synthesis, object localization, action suppression, and reference resolution. Across the six modes, we construct 209 controlled tasks spanning 12-76 turns, with dialogue length, irrelevant-topic distraction, and colloquial phrasing adding further difficulty. Evaluation of 22 frontier model configurations shows that Hy-MultiTurn is broadly challenging, as even GPT-5.5, the strongest overall configuration, satisfies all requirements in only 41.1 percent of responses and no model performs best in all six modes.
