Perplexity reports public ViDoRe V3 nDCG@10 on a 0–100 scale. Image and Markdown retrieval use separate input representations. These provider-reported results remain display-only and do not establish general LLM capability scores. The two models share a multi-vector embedding space; each retained token has a 128-dimensional vector, and query–document pairs use MaxSim scoring.

ViDoRe V3 Image (Perplexity report) is currently displayed on BenchLM for reference, but it is excluded from the weighted scoring formula.
