arXiv:2606. 02162v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Document type classification in visually rich documents remains challenging, as relevant information is distributed across textual, visual, and layout modalities.
arXiv:2607. 10400v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision language models (VLMs) have achieved strong performance on visual document understanding benchmarks such as DocVQA, ChartQA, and MMLongBench-Doc.
arXiv:2606. 16092v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-world documents combine text with tables, charts, photographs, and diagrams arranged in diverse layouts, yet existing research on multimodal large language models (MLLMs) for document QA predominantly produces text-only responses, underutilizing these visual elements.
Key Information Extraction (KIE) converts visually rich documents into structured data, but practical deployment remains challenging: strong performance often relies on costly on-server Large Multimodal Models (LMMs), while compact locally deployable models lack sufficient KIE supervision. We present SAYRE, a scene-aware document synthesis framework for generating scalable KIE training data without hand-crafted template design.
arXiv:2606. 04231v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in multimodal retrieval-augmented generation (MM-RAG) have shifted toward minimal parsing, relying on page-level images for producing retriever embeddings and for answer generation.
arXiv:2608. 12898v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Document parsing aims to transform unstructured documents into structured and machine-readable representations.
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.
arXiv:2604. 09552v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Engineering rulebooks and technical standards contain multimodal information like dense text, tables, and illustrations that are challenging for retrieval augmented generation (RAG) systems.
arXiv:2608. 03691v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are increasingly used to translate webpage screenshots into front-end code, but repeated UI patterns may sway them toward visually incorrect yet pattern-consistent outputs.
arXiv:2606. 09578v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are increasingly evaluated on table reasoning tasks, but the role of table representation remains under-explored.
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.
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:2608. 14032v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing multimodal RAG methods often flatten structured documents into isolated text and image units, weakening the source organization and local text-image logic needed for faithful evidence selection and placement.
