摘要:

文档布局分析通常依赖于计算机视觉模型来理解文档,而忽略了对捕获至关重要的文本信息。同时,高质量的标记数据集的视觉和文本信息仍然不足。在本文中,我们提出了\textbf{DocBank},一个基准数据集,包含50万文档页面与细粒度的标记级注释的文档布局分析。DocBank是使用一种简单而有效的方法构建的,对arXiv.com上提供的\LaTeX{}文档的监督很弱。使用DocBank,可以公平地比较来自不同模态的模型,并进一步研究多模态方法,提高文档布局分析的性能。我们构建了几个强大的基线,并手动分割训练/开发/测试集进行评估。实验结果表明,在DocBank上训练的模型能够准确识别各种文档的布局信息。DocBank数据集在\url{https://github.com/doc-analysis/DocBank}上公开提供。

英文摘要:

Document layout analysis usually relies on computer vision models to understand documents while ignoring textual information that is vital to capture. Meanwhile, high quality labeled datasets with both visual and textual information are still insufficient. In this paper, we present \textbf{DocBank}, a benchmark dataset that contains 500K document pages with fine-grained token-level annotations for document layout analysis. DocBank is constructed using a simple yet effective way with weak supervision from the \LaTeX{} documents available on the arXiv.com. With DocBank, models from different modalities can be compared fairly and multi-modal approaches will be further investigated and boost the performance of document layout analysis. We build several strong baselines and manually split train/dev/test sets for evaluation. Experiment results show that models trained on DocBank accurately recognize the layout information for a variety of documents. The DocBank dataset is publicly available at \url{https://github.com/doc-analysis/DocBank}.
