Assemblage

A dataset (and tool for building) binary executable corpora.

About Assemblage

Assemblage is a dataset of x86-64 Linux ELF and Windows PE executables built from open-source C/C++ and Rust projects, along with a cloud-based distributed system for building large, diverse corpora of binaries.

Datasets

All datasets are hosted on Hugging Face (the Kaggle copies are no longer updated) and contain only licensed code. For download instructions, schemas, and changelogs, see the Assemblage Docs.

GitHub Repo

Distributed binary-corpus generator. Scrapes licensed C/C++ and Rust repositories, builds them across compilers and optimization levels, and archives the binaries with function-level metadata.
