Before this work, no public parallel data covered all of them, no benchmark spanned all 22 with India-relevant material, and no open or commercial model supported the full set. The authors address this on four fronts: training data… 2. **[MEGAVERSE: Benchmarking Large Language Models Across Languages, Modalities, Models and Tasks](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/ahuja-2024-megaverse-benchmarking-large-language-models/)** *(2024 · 74 citations)* Most LLM evaluation targets English, so it is unclear how recent models handle other languages, especially low-resource ones. 3. **[Are Large Language Model-based Evaluators the Solution to Scaling Up Multilingual Evaluation?](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/hada-2023-large-language-model-based-evaluators/)** *(2023 · 69 citations)* Scaling LLM evaluation beyond English is difficult. Benchmarks cover few languages and few realistic tasks, automatic metrics handle rich morphology and unusual scripts poorly, and native-speaker judges are costly and slow.
