VerifyDocBench
Genuine per-field trust records for document-extraction calibration, risk-controlled selective prediction, and grounding research. Companion resource to:
- VerifyDocBench (benchmark paper) — first released benchmark scoring per-field calibration, risk-controlled selective prediction, and grounding-conditioned trust for document extraction.
- "Valid Per-Field Selective Risk Control for Document Extraction" (method paper) — the validity ladder / conformal risk-control procedures this data was captured to evaluate.
Code, loaders, scoring harness, and both papers' reproducibility artifacts: https://github.com/bhaskargurram-ai/verifydoc (Apache-2.0).
What's in this repository
Nine genuine per-field capture files, 36,265 records total, from four extractor families over four corpora:
| file | extractor | fields | docs | source corpus |
|---|---|---|---|---|
cord_claude-sonnet-5.json |
claude-sonnet-5 (text-layer) | 13,859 | 800 | CORD (receipts) |
funsd_claude-sonnet-5.json |
claude-sonnet-5 (text-layer) | 1,999 | 175 | FUNSD (forms) |
xfund_de_claude-sonnet-5.json |
claude-sonnet-5 (text-layer) | 523 | 42 | XFUND German |
xfund_es_claude-sonnet-5.json |
claude-sonnet-5 (text-layer) | 632 | 43 | XFUND Spanish |
xfund_fr_claude-sonnet-5.json |
claude-sonnet-5 (text-layer) | 772 | 44 | XFUND French |
xfund_zh_claude-sonnet-5.json |
claude-sonnet-5 (text-layer) | 461 | 27 | XFUND Chinese |
cord_claude-haiku-4-5.json |
claude-haiku-4-5 (text-layer) | 5,341 | 400 | CORD (frozen-config confirmation) |
cord_qwen2.5-14b.json |
Qwen2.5-14B (vLLM, open-weights, text-layer) | 6,168 | 398 | CORD |
cord_gpt-4o.json |
gpt-4o (genuinely vision-based) | 6,510 | 399 | CORD |
Only cord_gpt-4o.json is genuinely vision-based — the model was sent the
rendered page image (base64-encoded) alongside the OCR text layer as assistive
context. Every other file is text-layer prompted: the model reads only the
document's OCR text, never pixels, despite "VLM" being the natural shorthand for a
closed frontier API model — we correct that framing here rather than let it stand
for three of the four extractor families.
Each record is one field prediction:
{
"doc_id": "cord-train-00000",
"path": "menu.nm",
"value": "Nasi Campur Bali",
"verbalized": 0.95,
"consistency": 1.0,
"grounded": true,
"support": 0.83,
"correct": 1,
"entailment": 0.91
}
verbalized = the model's self-reported confidence; consistency = k-sample
self-consistency agreement; grounded/support = whether/how strongly the value was
located in the document's text layer (ambiguity-penalized); entailment = NLI
cross-encoder score for "does the grounded span entail this value"; correct = scored
against gold (see the paper for exact-match/numeric/semantic scoring rules per field
type).
Not included, and not claimed as released: DocILE and SROIE — no genuine capture exists for either in this project (DocILE download is pending a valid access token; SROIE has loader code but was never run for a real capture). Source document images are not re-hosted for any corpus (see licensing below) — only our own derived per-field predictions and scoring.
Licensing by source
Our own contributions — the per-field correctness labels, grounding/support scores, schemas, and this derived record format — are released under Apache-2.0, matching the parent repository's license.
This does not relicense the underlying source document collections, each of which keeps its own license:
| source | license | notes |
|---|---|---|
| CORD | CC BY 4.0 | Permissive; our Apache-2.0 annotations are consistent with it. |
| FUNSD | Non-commercial, research/educational use only (custom terms) | Not a CC license. Use of funsd_claude-sonnet-5.json must stay within these terms. |
| XFUND (de/es/fr/zh) | CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 | Non-commercial, share-alike; uniform across languages. |
We redistribute only our own added annotations (values, confidence/grounding/ correctness signals) and reference the original dataset downloads for source documents/images — restrictively licensed source images are never re-hosted here. If you redistribute derivatives of the FUNSD or XFUND slices, you must comply with their non-commercial terms.
Reproducibility
Captured via the harness at scripts/apivlm_perfield_rich.py (seed-pinned, k=3
self-consistency sampling, doc-level splits, regression-gated). Every number in both
companion papers traces to these files or to the scoring harness's deterministic
transforms of them — see paper/HANDOFF.md and paper/generated/real-runs/ in the
GitHub repository for the full campaign log.
Human-gold audit
A subset of these records was independently re-judged by three blind human annotators
(Fleiss' κ=0.83 on 600 CORD/FUNSD items, κ=0.939 on a further 400 XFUND items) to bound
automatic-label noise. See the method paper's confirmation section and
benchmark/card.md in the GitHub repository for the full audit.
