Methodology
Vendor-reported result. Exact repository mistralai/Voxtral-Mini-3B-2507, identified with the paper's public Voxtral Mini Online DPO checkpoint. The internal Speech Understanding benchmark uses in-the-wild audio with question-answer prompts. Table 2 reports the mean of a binary correctness-and-helpfulness judge; each answer is independently judged ten times. The total number of questions and full decoding settings are not stated.
Context
The table reports 85.59 ± 3.77 as mean ± standard deviation over ten independent judgments per answer. The ± value is not a 95% confidence interval, and the number of evaluated questions is not stated.

Vendor-reported result. Exact repository mistralai/Voxtral-Mini-3B-2507, identified with the paper's public Voxtral Mini Online DPO checkpoint. Table 2 reports macro-average WER across English short-form test sets. The table does not identify its full dataset list, decoding settings, or number of examples.
Context
The paper identifies this as English short-form macro-average WER but Table 2 does not enumerate the datasets or publish an uncertainty interval.

Note

Exact numeric corpus and language results are recorded from the Voxtral paper. Not every per-task decoding setting or immutable inference-environment revision is documented.

Unresolved

accepted-independent-asr-leaderboard-results

Note

An exact-checkpoint Open ASR manifest was visible in an HF Staff PR, but it still showed Ready to merge on 2026-10-15. Its proposed values are not treated as accepted leaderboard observations.

Not published

test-sample-count-and-decoding-settings

Note

The evaluator publishes WER and a 95% bootstrap interval but not the number of scored test clips or model decoding settings.

Unresolved

accepted-open-asr-result

Note

The exact Open ASR result is visible as WER 7.05, but the HF result metadata says verified=false and official PR #47 remains open. It is withheld until the benchmark accepts the result.

Not published

longshot-model-denominator-and-score-ci

Note

The paper reports benchmark-wide sample totals and a single generation pass, but no exact model-specific N or score confidence interval.

Not published

per-cell-sample-count

Original wording

The source gives 2,067 clips for the overall robustness domain, but not per subset/model cell.

Not published

confidence-intervals

Original wording

The source reports no confidence interval for Table 7 cells.

Unresolved

inference-route

Original wording

The generic inference section mentions local runs and default settings, while the model appendix names a helper; it does not bind the exact Voxtral row to a route or provide its per-model decoding settings.
