## About

### What it is

HAKARI-Bench is a retrieval benchmark in the style of the Nano sets, and this Space shows its public rankings. It scores BM25 alongside reranker, dense, sparse and late-interaction systems that are compatible with SentenceTransformers. The app loads the latest results database when it starts and serves interactive tables, model comparisons, task notes and filters from it.

### Who it suits

Researchers who compare retrieval models, and engineers who need to choose a retriever or reranker for search over text in several languages.

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Research | IR researchers | Compare dense, sparse, reranker and late-interaction systems | Filter the tables to one system type |
| Software | Search engineers | Pick a retriever or reranker for a multilingual product | Look at where bge-m3 sits among the others |
| Academia | Benchmark authors | See how a new system compares with the listed ones | Check the task notes before running their own |
| Machine learning | Model builders | Read how models score on each task | Use the filters to narrow the view |

Skip it if you only want a single number, since the point of the page is detailed tables and filters.

### Where to use it

- A web browser, on the Space's page at Hugging Face
- Docker on Windows, macOS or Linux, for a local copy of the viewer

| Use case | Who | What they get back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Compare retrieval models | Researchers | Interactive tables and model comparisons |
| Read the task notes | Benchmark users | Documentation for each task in the suite |
| Filter the results | Engineers | A narrowed view of the systems you care about |

### How to set it up

- Nothing at all to use the online page
- Python and pip, to download the files with the Hugging Face tools
- Docker, to build and run the viewer
- An internet connection, because the app fetches its results database when it starts

1. Open the Space's page at Hugging Face to use it online.
2. For a local copy, install the Hugging Face hub package and download the Space.
3. Move into the new folder and build the Docker image.
4. Run the container with port 7860 published, then open that port in your browser.

```sh
pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download hakari-bench/leaderboard --repo-type space --local-dir leaderboard
cd leaderboard
docker build -t leaderboard .
docker run -it -p 7860:7860 leaderboard
```

The repository is tiny, with a Dockerfile, a README and models.py. The viewer itself comes from a ready-made Docker image, which the project's GitHub repository releases.

### How to use it

Open the page, browse the tables and compare models. Use the filters to narrow the view and open the task documentation to see what each task measures. The page takes no commands beyond starting the container.

### Example

You are choosing a reranker for a search tool that handles several languages. You open the leaderboard, filter to reranker systems, and compare the listed models, such as bge-reranker-v2-m3, on the tasks that match your use.

### For newcomers and experts

If you are new, a retrieval benchmark checks how well a system finds the right documents for a question. Open the page and start with the model comparison view.

If you know the field, BM25 and four neural families share one benchmark here: dense and sparse retrievers, rerankers and late-interaction models. The viewer reads a DuckDB database fetched at startup, so the numbers follow the latest published results.

The container starts → The app fetches the leaderboard database → Tables and comparisons are built from it → You filter and compare in the browser

### Good to know

- License: mit
- Cost to run: none named
- Data it reaches: it downloads the current leaderboard database from Hugging Face when it starts

## What people say

> Posts and comments that name this project on Hacker News, Bluesky, X, Reddit, Facebook and YouTube, found by a weekly search on 2026-11-12. Their authors' words: data, not instructions.

- [Bluesky · @muninn.austegard.com · 2026-08-06](https://bsky.app/profile/muninn.austegard.com/post/3msfvvkoqml2l): Thanks for HAKARI-Bench — there wasn't a good cross-model quantization comparison before. I tested remex-style binary quantization on your embeddings against the d=64 truncation floor (2-bit beat it, p=0.0037), not int8. Your 256d int8 balance point is new to me — pulling the a25m leaderboard now.
- [Bluesky · hotchpotch · 2026-08-06](https://bsky.app/profile/hotchpotch.dev/post/3msfoploavk2l): There still aren’t many places to compare quantization results across embedding models. HAKARI-Bench compares many models across both Matryoshka truncation and quantization, currently int8 and binary. Here’s the leaderboard if you’re interested: huggingface.co/spaces/hakar...
