English ASR WER

English ASR WER is a benchmark for handling several input types together (images, documents, text). The official description says: "English ASR WER as evaluated on the LFM3-Omni-2B card: average word error rate (WER) in percent on the ESB / Open ASR benchmark suite; lower is better". Below we describe in simple words what benchmarks of this type generally examine.

English ASR WER measures handling several input types together (images, documents, text). In detail, it checks:

• questions that mix text with images or document pages
• reading and extracting information from screenshots and scans
• understanding layout, titles, logos and figures in real documents
• staying accurate when the text content alone is not enough

The score is accuracy: the percentage of tasks answered or solved correctly. 100% means every task was solved perfectly; higher is better.
