New framework BBLP enhances object detection for document analysis

Researchers have developed Bounding Box Label Propagation (BBLP), a new pseudo-labeling framework designed to improve object detection for document layout analysis. This method integrates visual, textual, and positional embeddings to create a joint embedding for label propagation on partially annotated datasets. The framework aims to reduce the significant costs and time associated with re-annotating growing datasets. Evaluations on the D4LA dataset show that BBLP can achieve high-quality bounding box annotations, reaching 81.6% of fully supervised performance with only 10% of the data labeled. AI

IMPACT Reduces manual annotation efforts for document layout analysis, potentially accelerating the development of AI systems for document processing.

    Bounding Box Label Propagation for Re-Annotation of Document Layout Analysis Datasets

    Datasets in practical document processing scenarios typically grow over time, and their class annotations undergo continuous refinement. This creates significant re-annotation efforts, which are time-consuming and costly. A promising remedy is to re-annotate only a small subset o…
