A new research paper evaluates the performance of open-source models, including OCR, LLMs, and VLMs, for structured information extraction in high-risk public sector applications. The study found that while Vision-Language Models generally outperform traditional OCR+LLM pipelines, even state-of-the-art open models struggle with reliability in zero-shot settings. The research highlights that model scale does not linearly correlate with performance and emphasizes the critical role of input quality, particularly the structural integrity of OCR output, in achieving accurate results.
