arXiv:2605.24973v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: VLM-based OCR models have become the de facto choice for document parsing, as they can accurately extract page-level elements (e.g., paragraphs within individual pages) together with their bounding boxes and textual content. However, downstream applications such as RAG require coherent document-level information, whereas these models often break cross-page continuity and fail to recover disrupted structures, such as paragraphs and tables truncated by page boundaries. Such relationships are not confined to a single page; instead, they require jo
The proliferation of VLM-based OCR models has highlighted a significant operational gap in processing structured documents for downstream applications like RAG, making the development of robust post-processing solutions critical and timely.
This development addresses a key limitation in current AI document parsing, enabling more accurate and coherent information extraction from complex documents, which is essential for advanced AI applications and automated workflows.
The ability to accurately recover document-level continuity and structure, even when disrupted by page breaks, will significantly improve the reliability and utility of AI systems processing documents for various enterprise and research use cases.
