HFCommunity

What is HFCommunity?

HFCommunity offers an offline up-to-date relational database built from the data available at the Hugging Face Hub, thus providing queryable data about the repositories hosted in the Hub.

• The tool was presented in the paper HFCommunity: A Tool to Analyze the Hugging Face Hub Community, accepted in the 30th IEEE International Conference on Software Analysis, Evolution and Reengineering (SANER 2023).
• The assessment on the suitability of Hugging Face Hub for empirical studies was presented in the registered report titled On the Suitability of Hugging Face Hub for Empirical Studies accepted in the 17th ACM/IEEE International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2023).
• The extraction process and the advances on this work are published in the journal paper HFCommunity: An Extraction Process and Relational Database to Analyze Hugging Face Hub Data published in the Science of Computer Programming journal.

Thanks to HFCommunity, developers can quickly conduct analysis on projects hosted on Hugging Face Hub.
