OCR-EDR is a rendering‑aware framework that diagnoses and repairs OCR errors by jointly evaluating an OCR prediction, its editable form, and the rendered image of the source document. It localizes genuine mistakes while preserving valid or rendering‑equivalent predictions, then applies executable edits and iteratively reassesses with updated renderings. On the newly constructed OCRErrBench, the DocEDR model achieves 94.78% diagnostic accuracy and repairs 86.23% of errors, boosting formula metrics by up to 30.99 percentage points and improving CDM scores on several OCR systems.
Vision-language models (VLMs) have achieved strong performance on OCR-based benchmarks and increasingly focused on text-rich understanding, but their robustness under controlled visual degradation remains insufficiently understood. This gap is critical for OCR reasoning, where visual corruption can induce OCR errors and structural distortions, thereby introducing uncertainty into the reasoning task.

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.
