HuggingFace Researchers Introduce Docmatix: A Dataset For Document Visual Question Answering Containing 2.4 Million Pictures And 9.5 Million Q/A Pairs

Practical Solutions and Value of Docmatix: A Dataset for Document Visual Question Answering Challenges in DocVQA DocVQA faces challenges in collecting and annotating data from different document formats. Domain-specific differences, privacy concerns, and lack of document-structure uniformity complicate dataset development. Importance of DocVQA Datasets Despite challenges, DocVQA datasets are crucial for improving model performance, benchmarking, and automating document-related processes across sectors. Introduction of Docmatix The new Docmatix dataset contains 2.4 million pictures and 9.5 million Q/A pairs from 1.3 million PDF documents. This scale showcases the potential impact of Docmatix on document accessibility. Creation and Validation of Docmatix Researchers used a Phi-3-small model to create Q/A pairs from PDFA transcriptions and validated the dataset by removing incorrect pairings. The processed images are now easily accessible, ensuring the dataset’s reliability. Improving Model Performance with Docmatix Ablation experiments were conducted to fine-tune prompts and assess Docmatix’s performance. Training on a small subset of Docmatix showed a 20% relative improvement in model performance, highlighting the dataset’s potential impact on model training. Future of DocVQA Models The team encourages the open-source community to use Docmatix to reduce the disparity between proprietary and open-sourced Vision-Language Models (VLMs) and to train new, high-performing DocVQA models.
