abstract: >
  We present MASSIVE-Agents, a new benchmark for assessing multilingual
  function calling across 52 languages. We created MASSIVE-Agents by
  cleaning the original MASSIVE dataset and then reformatting it for
  evaluation within the Berkeley Function-Calling Leaderboard (BFCL)
  framework. The full benchmark comprises 47,020 samples with an average
  of 904 samples per language, covering 55 different functions and 286
  arguments. We benchmarked 21 models using Amazon Bedrock and present
  the results along with associated analyses. MASSIVE-Agents is
  challenging, with the top model Nova Premier achieving an average
  Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) Accuracy of 34.05% across all languages,
  with performance varying significantly from 57.37% for English to as
  low as 6.81% for Amharic. Some models, particularly smaller ones,
  yielded a score of zero for the more difficult languages. Additionally,
  we provide results from ablations using a custom 1-shot prompt,
  ablations with prompts translated into different languages, and
  comparisons based on model latency.
