| ## Overview |
|
|
| **GroupAssistBench** is a benchmark for evaluating how LLM agents recall and use memories to assist multiple participants in real-world group conversations. |
|
|
| Built from **50 real-world group chats containing 80,299 messages**, it includes **2,395 evaluation instances** across two task levels: |
|
|
| - **L1 — Memory Recall:** Recovering historical information with reference answers. |
| - **L2 — Memory Use:** Providing open-ended assistance grounded in group memories, evaluated using instance-specific rubrics informed by real user feedback. |
|
|
| Both levels cover three memory dependencies: **single (M1), multiple (M2), and conflicting (M3) memories**. |
|
|
| ## Dataset Statistics |
|
|
| | | M1 | M2 | M3 | Total | |
| |---|---:|---:|---:|---:| |
| | L1 | 776 | 448 | 150 | 1,374 | |
| | L2 | 221 | 650 | 150 | 1,021 | |
| | Total | 997 | 1,098 | 300 | 2,395 | |
|
|
| ## Dataset Files |
|
|
| The `dataset/` directory contains: |
|
|
| - `items.jsonl`: Evaluation queries, L1 reference answers, and L2 rubrics. |
| - `items_full.jsonl`: Full construction records and supporting memory anchors. |
| - `contexts.json`: Anonymised Chinese group conversation histories. |
| - `contexts_en.json`: English reference translation of the group conversations (translated using GPT-5.5). |
| - `cutoffs.json`: Per-instance history cutoffs to prevent future information leakage. |
| - `profiles.json`: Group member profiles. |
| - `manifest.json`: Instance IDs grouped by task and memory dependency. |
| - `dataset_meta.json`: Dataset statistics and checksums. |
|
|
| **Note:** The data files use `D1/D2/D3`, corresponding to `M1/M2/M3` in the paper. |
|
|
| **English Reference Translation.** We additionally provide `contexts_en.json`, an English translation of the original Chinese group conversations using GPT-5.5, to improve accessibility for international researchers. Both versions share the same group keys, message order, and turn indices. The original Chinese conversations (`contexts.json`) and evaluation instances (`items.jsonl`) remain the primary benchmark data, while the English translation is provided for reference only. |
|
|
| ## Usage |
|
|
| `load_dataset` loads the 2,395 evaluation instances (`dataset/items.jsonl`). |
| The conversations the instances are asked against are in `dataset/contexts.json`. |
| That file is a dictionary keyed by group rather than a table, so download it with |
| `huggingface_hub`: |
|
|
| ```python |
| import json |
| from datasets import load_dataset |
| from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download |
| |
| items = load_dataset("tencent/GroupAssistBench", split="test") |
| print(len(items)) # 2395 |
| |
| path = hf_hub_download("tencent/GroupAssistBench", "dataset/contexts.json", repo_type="dataset") |
| with open(path, encoding="utf-8") as f: |
| contexts = json.load(f) # {group: [[turn, speaker, text], ...]} |
| |
| item = items[0] |
| history = [m for m in contexts[item["group"]] if m[0] < item["cut_idx"]] |
| # history: the conversation a system may read before the request |
| # item["query"]: the request |
| # item["gt"] / item["gt_atoms"] (L1) or item["criteria"] (L2): the reference for scoring |
| ``` |
|
|
| To download all files, including `contexts_en.json` (English reference translation), |
| `profiles.json` and `items_full.jsonl`: |
|
|
| ```python |
| from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download |
| |
| local_dir = snapshot_download("tencent/GroupAssistBench", repo_type="dataset") |
| ``` |
|
|
| or from the command line: |
|
|
| ```bash |
| hf download tencent/GroupAssistBench --repo-type dataset --local-dir GroupAssistBench |
| ``` |
|
|
