# Document Classification Benchmark (open-vocab, zero-shot)
**Given a document image and an arbitrary set of text labels, which one is right?** A held-out, zero-shot,
*open-vocabulary* evaluation for document-type classification — labels are supplied at inference, not baked
into a head. Test split only; not for training. Every image is drawn from a **permissively-licensed,
redistributable** source.
Powers the
[document-classification-leaderboard](https://huggingface.co/spaces/nutrientdocs/document-classification-leaderboard)
and evaluates [`document-classification-v2`](https://huggingface.co/nutrientdocs/document-classification-v2)
(commercial) and the open-weight
[`document-classification-v1`](https://huggingface.co/nutrientdocs/document-classification-v1); try it live in
the [demo](https://huggingface.co/spaces/nutrientdocs/document-classification-demo).
## Tracks (macro-F1)
- **DocLayNet** — document page categories (financial reports, scientific articles, manuals, patents, …).
- **Forms** — form vs non-form and fine form sub-types.
- **OOD** — document *types absent from training* (invoices, handwriting, charts, tables) — the open-vocab
stress test.
- **OOV** — an evaluation *protocol* (not extra rows): score the same images against never-seen synonym
paraphrases of each label ("invoice" → "bill") to measure concept-matching vs memorized wording.
## Contents & sources
897 test images (`track` column selects the slice). All sources are redistributable:
| Source | Track | License |
|---|---|---|
| DocLayNet (`ds4sd/DocLayNet`) | doclaynet | CDLA-Permissive-1.0 |
| synthetic IRS forms (public-domain templates + faked fields) | forms | public-domain |
| mixed permissive HF sources (invoice / handwriting / chart / table) | ood | per upstream source |
> **Tobacco3482 is deliberately excluded.** Its research-only license is not redistributable, so it is not
> part of this public benchmark (it is used only in internal evaluation).
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("nutrientdocs/document-classification-benchmark", split="test")
```
