We present HunyuanOCR-1. 5, a lightweight end-to-end OCR-specialized vision-language model.
The study investigates how the choice between processing page images or parsed text in an information extraction pipeline depends on the document’s layout, focusing on privacy‑sensitive, on‑premise scenarios with small models (≤8 B parameters). It evaluates accuracy and energy consumption across input representations, model families, and inference settings, finding that batching dramatically reduces energy use, FP8 quantization offers modest savings, and neural OCR is far more energy‑intensive than classical OCR. The optimal representation varies: vision‑language models excel on layout‑rich documents, while small text‑only models with a cheap parser perform best on near‑plain‑text contracts, achieving higher accuracy and lower energy than any vision‑language setup.

HunyuanOCR-1.5 is a lightweight, end‑to‑end OCR‑specialized vision‑language model that unifies document parsing, text spotting, information extraction, text‑image translation, and multi‑image document understanding. It builds on the HunyuanOCR‑1.0 architecture, improving efficiency with DFlash‑based OCR decoding for faster inference (6.37× Transformer speedup, 2.14× under vLLM) and enhancing capability through an Agentic Data Flow system that autonomously constructs high‑quality training data for long‑tail OCR tasks. The model achieves top‑tier performance on OmniDocBench v1.6 and sets new milestones in ancient‑script OCR, chart/table parsing, multilingual parsing, and hallucination evaluation, while remaining lightweight for deployment.

arXiv:2608. 06146v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: End-to-end document parsers provide a unified interface, but serialize page layouts and regional contents into one autoregressive sequence.

End-to-end document parsers provide a unified interface, but serialize page layouts and regional contents into one autoregressive sequence. This formulation forces independent regions onto a decoding path whose length grows with the total content, whereas crop-based two-stage parsers expose region-level parallelism at the cost of repeated visual prefills and fragmented page context.
