Researchers have developed a new framework for evaluating how well document parsers can extract mathematical formulas from PDFs. This system uses synthetically generated PDFs with precise LaTeX ground truth and employs an LLM-as-a-judge approach to assess the semantic equivalence of parsed formulas. Evaluating over 20 parsers on 100 synthetic documents revealed significant performance differences, offering guidance for practitioners. AI
