1.安装
From pip:
代码语言:javascript复制pip install nougat-ocr
From repository:
代码语言:javascript复制pip install git https://github.com/facebookresearch/nougat
Note, on Windows: If you want to utilize a GPU, make sure you first install the correct PyTorch version. Follow instructions here
如果您想从API调用模型或生成数据集,则会有额外的依赖项。 安装通过
pip install "nougat-ocr[api]"
or pip install "nougat-ocr[dataset]"
1.2 获取PDF的预测
1.2.1 CLI
To get predictions for a PDF run
代码语言:javascript复制$ nougat path/to/file.pdf -o output_directory
目录或文件的路径(其中每行都是PDF的路径)也可以作为位置参数传递
代码语言:javascript复制$ nougat path/to/directory -o output_directory
代码语言:javascript复制usage: nougat [-h] [--batchsize BATCHSIZE] [--checkpoint CHECKPOINT] [--model MODEL] [--out OUT]
[--recompute] [--markdown] [--no-skipping] pdf [pdf ...]
positional arguments:
pdf PDF(s) to process.
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--batchsize BATCHSIZE, -b BATCHSIZE
Batch size to use.
--checkpoint CHECKPOINT, -c CHECKPOINT
Path to checkpoint directory.
--model MODEL_TAG, -m MODEL_TAG
Model tag to use.
--out OUT, -o OUT Output directory.
--recompute Recompute already computed PDF, discarding previous predictions.
--full-precision Use float32 instead of bfloat16. Can speed up CPU conversion for some setups.
--no-markdown Do not add postprocessing step for markdown compatibility.
--markdown Add postprocessing step for markdown compatibility (default).
--no-skipping Don't apply failure detection heuristic.
--pages PAGES, -p PAGES
Provide page numbers like '1-4,7' for pages 1 through 4 and page 7. Only works for single PDFs.
The default model tag is 0.1.0-small
. If you want to use the base model, use 0.1.0-base
.
$ nougat path/to/file.pdf -o output_directory -m 0.1.0-base
In the output directory every PDF will be saved as a .mmd
file, the lightweight markup language, mostly compatible with Mathpix Markdown (we make use of the LaTeX tables).
Note: On some devices the failure detection heuristic is not working properly. If you experience a lot of
[MISSING_PAGE]
responses, try to run with the--no-skipping
flag. Related: #11, #67
1.2.2 API
With the extra dependencies you use app.py
to start an API. Call
$ nougat_api
通过向http://127.0.0.1:8503/ predict/发出POST请求来获得PDF文件的预测。它还接受参数“start”和“stop”,以限制计算选择页码(包括边界)。
响应是一个带有文档标记文本的字符串。
代码语言:javascript复制curl -X 'POST'
'http://127.0.0.1:8503/predict/'
-H 'accept: application/json'
-H 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data'
-F 'file=@<PDFFILE.pdf>;type=application/pdf'
To use the limit the conversion to pages 1 to 5, use the start/stop parameters in the request URL: http://127.0.0.1:8503/predict/?start=1&stop=5
2.Dataset
2.1 生成数据集
To generate a dataset you need
- A directory containing the PDFs
- A directory containing the
.html
files (processed.tex
files by LaTeXML) with the same folder structure - A binary file of pdffigures2 and a corresponding environment variable
export PDFFIGURES_PATH="/path/to/binary.jar"
Next run
代码语言:javascript复制python -m nougat.dataset.split_htmls_to_pages --html path/html/root --pdfs path/pdf/root --out path/paired/output --figure path/pdffigures/outputs
Additional arguments include
Argument | Description |
---|---|
--recompute | recompute all splits |
--markdown MARKDOWN | Markdown output dir |
--workers WORKERS | How many processes to use |
--dpi DPI | What resolution the pages will be saved at |
--timeout TIMEOUT | max time per paper in seconds |
--tesseract | Tesseract OCR prediction for each page |
Finally create a jsonl
file that contains all the image paths, markdown text and meta information.
python -m nougat.dataset.create_index --dir path/paired/output --out index.jsonl
For each jsonl
file you also need to generate a seek map for faster data loading:
python -m nougat.dataset.gen_seek file.jsonl
The resulting directory structure can look as follows:
代码语言:javascript复制root/
├── images
├── train.jsonl
├── train.seek.map
├── test.jsonl
├── test.seek.map
├── validation.jsonl
└── validation.seek.map
Note that the .mmd
and .json
files in the path/paired/output
(here images
) are no longer required.
This can be useful for pushing to a S3 bucket by halving the amount of files.
2.2Training
To train or fine tune a Nougat model, run
代码语言:javascript复制python train.py --config config/train_nougat.yaml
2.3 Evaluation
Run
代码语言:javascript复制python test.py --checkpoint path/to/checkpoint --dataset path/to/test.jsonl --save_path path/to/results.json
To get the results for the different text modalities, run
代码语言:javascript复制python -m nougat.metrics path/to/results.json
2.4 FAQ
- Why am I only getting
[MISSING_PAGE]
? Nougat was trained on scientific papers found on arXiv and PMC. Is the document you’re processing similar to that? What language is the document in? Nougat works best with English papers, other Latin-based languages might work. Chinese, Russian, Japanese etc. will not work. If these requirements are fulfilled it might be because of false positives in the failure detection, when computing on CPU or older GPUs (#11). Try passing the--no-skipping
flag for now. - Where can I download the model checkpoint from.
They are uploaded here on GitHub in the release section. You can also download them during the first execution of the program. Choose the preferred preferred model by passing
--model 0.1.0-{base,small}
