Language-Independent Layout Transformer - RoBERTa model by stitching a pre-trained RoBERTa (English) and a pre-trained Language-Independent Layout Transformer (LiLT) together. It was introduced in the paper
LiLT: A Simple yet Effective Language-Independent Layout Transformer for Structured Document Understanding by Wang et al. and first released in
this repository.
Disclaimer: The team releasing LiLT did not write a model card for this model so this model card has been written by the Hugging Face team.
The Language-Independent Layout Transformer (LiLT) allows to combine any pre-trained RoBERTa encoder from the hub (hence, in any language) with a lightweight Layout Transformer to have a LayoutLM-like model for any language.
The model is meant to be fine-tuned on tasks like document image classification, document parsing and document QA. See the
model hub to look for fine-tuned versions on a task that interests you.
