Pre-release

This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

bencheval

Benchmark evaluation for tabular machine learning: turns a table of per-task results into a leaderboard with Elo, win-rates, average ranks, improvability, and bootstrap confidence intervals. It is the leaderboard engine behind TabArena and is developed in the TabArena repository, but it does not depend on the tabarena package, so any benchmark that produces (method, task, metric_error) rows can use it.

Experimental. The API is still moving. Pin the version you evaluate with; every tabarena release pins the matching bencheval release.

Install

pip install --pre bencheval          # metrics + leaderboards
pip install --pre "bencheval[plot]"  # + matplotlib / seaborn / plotly for the plotting mixin

Releases on PyPI are pre-releases for now, so --pre (or uv pip install --prerelease=allow) is needed. The git checkout is the recommended install for development; see the TabArena README.

Usage

import pandas as pd
from bencheval.evaluator import BenchmarkEvaluator

# One row per (method, task[, seed]); lower `metric_error` is better.
data = pd.DataFrame(
    {
        "method": ["A", "B", "A", "B"],
        "task": ["t1", "t1", "t2", "t2"],
        "seed": [0, 0, 0, 0],
        "metric_error": [0.10, 0.12, 0.30, 0.25],
        "time_train_s": [1.0, 2.0, 1.5, 2.5],
        "time_infer_s": [0.1, 0.2, 0.1, 0.2],
    }
)

evaluator = BenchmarkEvaluator(seed_column="seed")
leaderboard = evaluator.leaderboard(data, include_error=True)
print(leaderboard)

examples/plots/run_generate_custom_leaderboard.py in the TabArena repository shows custom leaderboard metrics, Elo calibration against a reference method, and seed averaging.
