# Audio-Centric Multimodal Benchmark (ACM)

This dataset packages the ACM benchmark introduced by
[Efficient and High-Fidelity Omni Modality Retrieval](https://hmchuong.github.io/omniret/).
The paper is available at [arXiv:2603.02098](https://arxiv.org/abs/2603.02098).
Dataset repo: `chuonghm/ACM`


ACM contains four HuggingFace subsets. Each subset uses a single `test` split
so query and candidate tables can keep their natural schemas:

- `composed_audio_retrieval_queries`: flattened AT2A query rows.
- `composed_audio_retrieval_candidates`: AT2A audio candidate pool.
- `audio_visual_queries`: paired audio-visual query IDs.
- `audio_visual_candidates`: audio/video/image candidate pool.

## Files

- `data/composed_audio_retrieval/queries/*.parquet`: 4,251 flattened AT2A query
  rows with source audio, target audio, modification text, and captions.
- `data/composed_audio_retrieval/candidates/*.parquet`: 5,480 audio candidates.
- `data/audio_visual/queries/*.parquet`: 1,292 paired audio-visual query IDs.
- `data/audio_visual/candidates/*.parquet`: 5,480 audio/video/image candidates.
- Optional `media.zip`: a single archive holding every raw media file
  (`media/audios/*.wav`, `media/videos/*.mp4`, `media/images/*.jpg`), uploaded
  with `--upload-media`. Download and unzip it (it restores the `media/`
  folder) to resolve the `*_path` columns. It is shipped as one archive rather
  than tens of thousands of loose files so the Dataset Viewer can build.

## Loading

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

at2a_queries = load_dataset(
    "chuonghm/ACM",
    "composed_audio_retrieval_queries",
    split="test",
)
at2a_candidates = load_dataset(
    "chuonghm/ACM",
    "composed_audio_retrieval_candidates",
    split="test",
)
audio_visual_queries = load_dataset(
    "chuonghm/ACM",
    "audio_visual_queries",
    split="test",
)
audio_visual_candidates = load_dataset(
    "chuonghm/ACM",
    "audio_visual_candidates",
    split="test",
)
```

The first preview rows in each split embed HuggingFace `Audio`, `Image`, and
`Video` bytes so the Dataset Viewer can render playable audio, images, and
videos without duplicating every media file inside Parquet. Later rows keep
empty media cells and provide `*_path` columns. Download `media.zip` and unzip
it (it restores the `media/` folder) to resolve those paths to real files.
