# Reranking · Physics

ViDoRe 3 reranking results from MTEB: English queries, the test split, and BM25s first-stage retrieval. Each subject has its own board.

**8 entries** · nDCG@10 × 100 · Higher is better

Source publication date not supplied. Retrieved 2026-11-05.

Point-estimate ordering. The source supplies no confidence bounds, so small score differences are not evidence of a decisive lead.

## What this ranking can tell you

 - These are document retrieval rerankers evaluated on a fixed candidate set, not a general language-model ranking.
- Coverage is limited to model revisions with this exact published task and English subset. Missing results are not scored.
- The source supplies no confidence interval here; the displayed rank orders point estimates and does not establish statistical significance.
- No result publication date is supplied. The retrieval date records when the pinned result files were checked.

## Check the source

The original evidence is retained byte for byte. The downloadable board includes the source URLs, revision and SHA-256 hashes.
