A new research paper explores the trade-offs between accuracy and energy consumption for small, local language models performing information extraction on sensitive documents. The study, which adheres to on-premise processing constraints, found that batching requests significantly reduces energy usage without sacrificing accuracy. The optimal approach for information extraction depends on the document's layout, with vision-language models performing better on visually rich documents and text-only models with parsers excelling on plain text.
