WMT24++

WMT24++ is a comprehensive multilingual machine translation benchmark that expands the WMT24 dataset to cover 55 languages and dialects. It includes human-written references and post-edits across four domains (literary, news, social, and speech) to evaluate machine translation systems and large language models across diverse linguistic contexts.

Nemotron 3 Super (120B A12B) from NVIDIA currently leads the WMT24++ leaderboard with a score of 0.867 across 20 evaluated AI models.

Abstract

As large language models (LLM) become more and more capable in languages other than English, it is important to collect benchmark datasets in order to evaluate their multilingual performance, including on tasks like machine translation (MT). In this work, we extend the WMT24 dataset to cover 55 languages by collecting new human-written references and post-edits for 46 new languages and dialects in addition to post-edits of the references in 8 out of 9 languages in the original WMT24 dataset. The dataset covers four domains: literary, news, social, and speech. We benchmark a variety of MT providers and LLMs on the collected dataset using automatic metrics and find that LLMs are the best-performing MT systems in all 55 languages. These results should be confirmed using a human-based evaluation, which we leave for future work.

NVIDIANemotron 3 Super (120B A12B) leads with 86.7%, followed by NVIDIANemotron 3 Nano (30B A3B) at 86.2% and Alibaba Cloud / Qwen TeamQwen3.7 Max at 85.8%.
