CharXiv (RQ)

CharXiv (RQ) is a benchmark for reading and parsing real documents. The official description says: "CharXiv (RQ) - reasoning questions over arXiv figures and tables". Below we describe in simple words what benchmarks of this type generally examine.

CharXiv (RQ) measures reading and parsing real documents. In detail, it checks:

• extracting structured text from scans, PDFs and photos
• keeping tables, headings and reading order intact
• answering comprehension questions about the document content
• handling noisy layouts, handwriting and multi-page documents

The score is accuracy: the percentage of tasks answered or solved correctly. 100% means every task was solved perfectly; higher is better.

Official methodology note: CharXiv (RQ) - reasoning questions over arXiv figures and tables.
