Why it matters
Document processing requires trustworthy confidence scores for routing automation vs. human review. ConfBench enables systematic study of confidence estimators and calibration methods, addressing the lack of calibration-focused benchmarks.
Motivation
Intelligent document processing (IDP) with vision-language models (VLMs) hinges on confidence scores trustworthy enough to route extractions between automation and human review.
