首个端到端评估语音助手独立处理客服电话能力的基准测试
VAmoS Bench: Voice Agent Simulation Bench
- 构建模拟客户通话场景,评估语音助手在真实金融任务中的完整应答能力
- 100个场景中三分之一施加对抗压力,测试系统鲁棒性
- 通过数据库操作与对话记录比对,精准识别虚假操作或信息泄露
生产级语音助手采用级联、语音转语音及混合架构。现有基准多衡量组件质量与对话属性如词错误率、延迟、自然度和轮次切换,却少有评估助手能否独立完成电话通话。呼叫中心称此为“容留率”:自动系统无需转接人工即解决的通话比例。某些通话正确结果是拒绝或转接。为此,我们提出VAmoS Bench——语音助手仿真基准。它端到端评估完整语音助手系统在状态化客户服务任务中的表现。助手名为Riley,为虚构银行的信用卡支持代表,可冻结、注销、补办或激活卡片。每个100个场景包含模拟来电者私有目标及种子化的PostgreSQL后端。平台通过场景创建隔离仿真环境,来电者通过音频联系Riley;约三分之一场景施加对抗压力。助手可使用五种工具执行真实SQL操作。每个场景定义二元断言。评分器依据完整的对话与操作轨迹(含工具调用、参数及返回行)进行评估,可检测声称更改卡片但未更新数据库,或正确更新却泄露敏感信息的情况。首版基准聚焦金融服务。评估协议支持动态排行榜:后续可新增助手在同一版本评估,未来版本可扩展任务与场景。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Production voice agents span cascaded, speech-to-speech, and hybrid architectures. Voice-agent benchmarks typically measure component quality and conversational properties such as word error rate, latency, naturalness, and turn-taking. Fewer measure whether the agent handled a phone call correctly on its own. Contact centers refer to this as ``containment'': the share of phone calls the automated system resolves without handing off to a human. On some phone calls the right outcome is refusal or a redirect. To address this gap, we introduce VAmoS Bench, the Voice Agent Simulation Bench. It measures complete voice-agent systems end to end in a stateful customer-support task. The agent is Riley, a credit-card support representative for a fictional bank who can freeze, cancel, replace, or activate a card. Each of 100 scenarios supplies a simulated caller with a private goal and a seeded PostgreSQL backend. The platform uses each scenario to populate and activate an isolated simulation in which the caller reaches Riley over audio; roughly one-third apply adversarial pressure. The agent can use five tools that execute real SQL against the backend. Each scenario also defines binary assertions. A grader evaluates them against the complete trace of what the caller and agent said and what the agent did, including tool invocations, arguments, and returned rows. This catches an agent that claims to have changed a card without updating the database, as well as one that makes the right database change while disclosing protected information. This first benchmark version focuses on financial services. Its evaluation protocol supports an evolving leaderboard: additional voice agents can be evaluated on the same version, while later versions can expand the tasks and scenarios.
