WholeDoc Bench

Quick links: [🌐 Leaderboard] [📜 Paper] [💻 Code]

This is the public sample of WholeDoc Bench, a benchmark for evaluating document parsers on whole documents. It contains 10 documents (28 pages) with their ground-truth answer keys, so you can inspect the annotation format and run the evaluation pipeline on these documents.

Results from the full private evaluation set are available on the benchmark page and in the paper. Those results cannot be reproduced from this sample alone. The evaluation code is available to run and score supported parsers.

Usage

Download the whole release, pinned to its tag. The rows alone are not enough to score:

uvx --from huggingface_hub hf download nutrientdocs/wholedoc-bench-sample --repo-type dataset --revision v1 --local-dir wholedoc-bench-sample

Then run a parser, score it and build a leaderboard with the evaluation code:

uv run wholedoc-bench run --provider pdftotext --corpus wholedoc-bench-sample --out runs/pdftotext
uv run wholedoc-bench score --corpus wholedoc-bench-sample --predictions runs/pdftotext --results results
uv run wholedoc-bench report --results results

Every command checks the release first and stops if a file is missing or changed.

Files and row fields

documents.jsonl       one row per document
documents/<id>.pdf    the documents
groundtruth/<id>.json the ground truth of each document
release.json          the release tag, its source commit and counts
SHA256SUMS            the checksum of every file above
published.jsonl       every document id ever published, with its first release

Field	Meaning
id	the document's permanent id
document_path, document_sha256	the document file and its checksum
format, pages	file format and page count
language, scan	languages, and whether the document is a scan
tracks, supported_metrics	what this document is scored on
groundtruth_source	how the ground truth was made
groundtruth_path, groundtruth_sha256	the ground truth file and its checksum
category, limits, licence, attribution	not recorded in this release

Public sample and private set

The published benchmark results use the full private evaluation set. This public sample lets you inspect the answer keys and run the evaluation pipeline, but it does not reproduce the full benchmark results.
