arXiv:2607. 24745v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Key Information Extraction (KIE) is vital for many document applications, but creating training datasets is traditionally a time-consuming manual process.
arXiv:2607. 16203v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Document parsing is a foundational step for document understanding tasks such as visual question answering and key information extraction, as it transforms unstructured scanned images into structured representations by extracting textual, visual, and layout information.

We present HunyuanOCR-1. 5, a lightweight end-to-end OCR-specialized vision-language model.
The paper evaluates open-source OCR, LLM, and VLM systems on a high‑risk public sector task: extracting structured data from student application documents. Results show that VLMs generally outperform OCR+LLM pipelines, yet only 4 of 35 configurations achieve F1 scores above 0.5, with most combinations scoring below 0.25. Model size and input quality, especially preserving OCR structure, are critical factors influencing performance.
TeleOCR is a unified framework for document parsing that tackles challenges in both decoupled and end-to-end Vision‑Language Models. It introduces deformation‑aware learning to handle geometric distortions, an adaptive sampling mechanism for complex layouts, and a content‑structure decoupled strategy to model formula grammars and table structures. The approach achieves state‑of‑the‑art results on multiple benchmarks, including top placement in the ICDAR 2026 Sci‑ImageMiner Challenge.
arXiv:2607. 07179v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Document Visual Question Answering (DocVQA) presents a complex multimodal challenge, requiring models to exploit visual, textual, and layout information from documents.
The paper introduces Synth-JDoc, a synthetic Japanese document image dataset created by rendering text with HTML and CSS to produce multi‑column layouts that include both vertical and horizontal writing styles. Images generated by text‑to‑image models are embedded to enhance visual realism, and noise and degradation filters are applied to improve robustness. Experiments show that fine‑tuning Large Vision Language Models on Synth‑JDoc yields superior performance on reading vertically written Japanese text compared to prior synthetic datasets.
Document Visual Question Answering (DocVQA) presents a complex multimodal challenge, requiring models to exploit visual, textual, and layout information from documents. Although Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have shown remarkable performance in text-vision tasks, their robustness and transferability to different document domains remains underexplored.
arXiv:2605. 16409v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Optical character recognition (OCR) and multilingual scene-text understanding remain challenging for multimodal large language models (MLLMs), particularly in real-world images containing small or degraded text, cluttered layouts, occlusion, handwriting, and complex typography.
