VDocRAG: Retrieval-Augmented Generation over Visually-Rich Documents

VDocRAG is a new RAG framework that can directly understand diverse real-world documents purely from visual features. It was introduced in the paper VDocRAG: Retrieval-Augmented Generation over Visually-Rich Documents by Tanaka et al. and first released in this repository.

Key Enhancements of VDocRAG:

New Pretraining Tasks: We propose novel self-supervised pre-training tasks (RCR and RCG) that adapt large vision-language models for retrieval by compressing visual information into dense token representations while aligning them with textual content in documents.
New Dataset: We introduce OpenDocVQA, the first unified collection of open-domain document visual question answering datasets, encompassing diverse document types and formats.

Model Description

The model, NTT-hil-insight/VDocGenerator-Phi3-vision, was trained on QA pairs NTT-hil-insight/OpenDocVQA with the corpus NTT-hil-insight/OpenDocVQA-Corpus, for training VDocRAG with Vision Language Models (microsoft/Phi-3-vision-128k-instruct) in open-domain question answering scenarios.

NTT-hil-insight/VDocGenerator-Phi3-vision is an autoregressive model designed to generate answers based on retrieved document images.

Usage

Here, we show an easy way to download our model from HuggingFace Hub and run it quickly. Make sure to install the dependencies and packages as following at VDocRAG/README.md. To run our full inference pipeline with a retrieval system, please use our code.
