LayoutMamba combines Transformer and Mamba for efficient document analysis

Researchers have introduced LayoutMamba, a novel framework for document layout analysis that combines sparse-attention Transformers with Mamba's state-space mechanism. This hybrid approach aims to balance detailed local feature extraction with efficient global dependency modeling, addressing the computational costs of purely Transformer-based methods. The paper also proposes a new Geometric Overlap Penalty Loss (GOPLoss) to mitigate biases in existing benchmarks and encourage geometrically consistent predictions. Experiments on PubLayNet and D4LA demonstrate LayoutMamba's superior performance in accuracy and efficiency, with significantly fewer parameters than state-of-the-art methods. AI

IMPACT This hybrid architecture offers a more efficient approach to document layout analysis, potentially enabling wider deployment in resource-constrained environments.

    LayoutMamba: Efficient Document Layout Analysis with Hybrid Mamba-Transformer Networks

    arXiv:2610.34879v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Document layout analysis (DLA) faces a long-standing dilemma: existing methods either capture rich local details at prohibitive computational cost (e.g., Transformer-based approaches with quadratic complexity) or achieve efficient g…
