arXiv:2610.26155v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While language models have demonstrated remarkable capabilities, their performance remains disproportionately skewed towards high-resource languages. This disparity is particularly acute for the 700 million inhabitants of Southeast Asia, where vast linguistic diversity remains under-represented in existing benchmarks, often suffering from limited language coverage or narrow task scopes. To address this, we introduce DeepSEA, a comprehensive benchmark constructed from established datasets through professional human translation into 12 Southeast Asian languages, spanning both high-resource (e.g., Indonesian, Thai, Vietnamese) and low-resource (e.g., Burmese, Khmer, Lao) tiers across five distinct tasks: mathematical reasoning, scientific reasoning, question answering, abstractive summarization, and machine translation. Extensive evaluation of frontier proprietary and open-weights models reveals that while frontier models like Gemini-3.7-Flash maintain robustness across resource tiers, smaller models face severe performance degradation on low-resource languages. Crucially, models perform better in reasoning and summarization when pivoted through English rather than target languages, exposing a critical dependency on English representations, especially for low-resource languages. Beyond these observations, we provide a cross-lingual error analysis and a cross-script tokenizer fertility analysis. We hope these findings shed light on the development of next-generation inclusive multilingual models.
