LayoutLM¶

Overview¶

The LayoutLM model was proposed in the paper LayoutLM: Pre-training of Text and Layout for Document Image Understanding by Yiheng Xu, Minghao Li, Lei Cui, Shaohan Huang, Furu Wei, and Ming Zhou. It’s a simple but effective pretraining method of text and layout for document image understanding and information extraction tasks, such as form understanding and receipt understanding. It obtains state-of-the-art results on several downstream tasks:

form understanding: the FUNSD dataset (a collection of 199 annotated forms comprising more than 30,000 words).
receipt understanding: the SROIE dataset (a collection of 626 receipts for training and 347 receipts for testing).
document image classification: the RVL-CDIP dataset (a collection of 400,000 images belonging to one of 16 classes).

The abstract from the paper is the following:

Pre-training techniques have been verified successfully in a variety of NLP tasks in recent years. Despite the widespread use of pretraining models for NLP applications, they almost exclusively focus on text-level manipulation, while neglecting layout and style information that is vital for document image understanding. In this paper, we propose the LayoutLM to jointly model interactions between text and layout information across scanned document images, which is beneficial for a great number of real-world document image understanding tasks such as information extraction from scanned documents. Furthermore, we also leverage image features to incorporate words’ visual information into LayoutLM. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that text and layout are jointly learned in a single framework for document-level pretraining. It achieves new state-of-the-art results in several downstream tasks, including form understanding (from 70.72 to 79.27), receipt understanding (from 94.02 to 95.24) and document image classification (from 93.07 to 94.42).

Tips:

In addition to input_ids, forward() also expects the input bbox, which are the bounding boxes (i.e. 2D-positions) of the input tokens. These can be obtained using an external OCR engine such as Google’s Tesseract (there’s a Python wrapper available). Each bounding box should be in (x0, y0, x1, y1) format, where (x0, y0) corresponds to the position of the upper left corner in the bounding box, and (x1, y1) represents the position of the lower right corner. Note that one first needs to normalize the bounding boxes to be on a 0-1000 scale. To normalize, you can use the following function:

def normalize_bbox(bbox, width, height):
     return [
         int(1000 * (bbox[0] / width)),
         int(1000 * (bbox[1] / height)),
         int(1000 * (bbox[2] / width)),
         int(1000 * (bbox[3] / height)),
     ]

Here, width and height correspond to the width and height of the original document in which the token occurs. Those can be obtained using the Python Image Library (PIL) library for example, as follows:

from PIL import Image

image = Image.open("name_of_your_document - can be a png file, pdf, etc.")

width, height = image.size

For a demo which shows how to fine-tune LayoutLMForTokenClassification on the FUNSD dataset (a collection of annotated forms), see this notebook. It includes an inference part, which shows how to use Google’s Tesseract on a new document.

LayoutLMConfig¶

class transformers.LayoutLMConfig(vocab_size=30522, hidden_size=768, num_hidden_layers=12, num_attention_heads=12, intermediate_size=3072, hidden_act='gelu', hidden_dropout_prob=0.1, attention_probs_dropout_prob=0.1, max_position_embeddings=512, type_vocab_size=2, initializer_range=0.02, layer_norm_eps=1e-12, pad_token_id=0, gradient_checkpointing=False, max_2d_position_embeddings=1024, **kwargs)[source]¶

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a LayoutLMModel. It is used to instantiate a LayoutLM model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the LayoutLM layoutlm-base-uncased architecture.

Configuration objects inherit from BertConfig and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from BertConfig for more information.

This model is a PyTorch torch.nn.Module sub-class. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Parameters: config (LayoutLMConfig) – Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

The LayoutLM model was proposed in LayoutLM: Pre-training of Text and Layout for Document Image Understanding by Yiheng Xu, Minghao Li, Lei Cui, Shaohan Huang, Furu Wei and Ming Zhou.

This model is a PyTorch torch.nn.Module sub-class. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Parameters: config (LayoutLMConfig) – Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

forward(input_ids=None, bbox=None, attention_mask=None, token_type_ids=None, position_ids=None, head_mask=None, inputs_embeds=None, labels=None, output_attentions=None, output_hidden_states=None, return_dict=None)[source]¶

The LayoutLMForTokenClassification forward method, overrides the __call__() special method.

Note

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the Module instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

Parameters

input_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length)) –
Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

Indices can be obtained using transformers.LayoutLMTokenizer. See transformers.PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and transformers.PreTrainedTokenizer.__call__() for details.

What are input IDs?
bbox (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, 4), optional) – Bounding boxes of each input sequence tokens. Selected in the range [0, config.max_2d_position_embeddings-1]. Each bounding box should be a normalized version in (x0, y0, x1, y1) format, where (x0, y0) corresponds to the position of the upper left corner in the bounding box, and (x1, y1) represents the position of the lower right corner. See Overview for normalization.
attention_mask (torch.FloatTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional) –
Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in [0, 1]: 1 for tokens that are NOT MASKED, 0 for MASKED tokens.

What are attention masks?
token_type_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional) –
Segment token indices to indicate first and second portions of the inputs. Indices are selected in [0, 1]: 0 corresponds to a sentence A token, 1 corresponds to a sentence B token

What are token type IDs?
position_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional) –
Indices of positions of each input sequence tokens in the position embeddings. Selected in the range [0, config.max_position_embeddings - 1].

What are position IDs?
head_mask (torch.FloatTensor of shape (num_heads,) or (num_layers, num_heads), optional) – Mask to nullify selected heads of the self-attention modules. Mask values selected in [0, 1]: 1 indicates the head is not masked, 0 indicates the head is masked.
inputs_embeds (torch.FloatTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size), optional) – Optionally, instead of passing input_ids you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This is useful if you want more control over how to convert input_ids indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.
output_attentions (bool, optional) – If set to True, the attentions tensors of all attention layers are returned. See attentions under returned tensors for more detail.
output_hidden_states (bool, optional) – If set to True, the hidden states of all layers are returned. See hidden_states under returned tensors for more detail.
return_dict (bool, optional) – If set to True, the model will return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple.
labels (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional) – Labels for computing the token classification loss. Indices should be in [0, ..., config.num_labels - 1].

Returns

A TokenClassifierOutput (if return_dict=True is passed or when config.return_dict=True) or a tuple of torch.FloatTensor comprising various elements depending on the configuration (LayoutLMConfig) and inputs.

loss (torch.FloatTensor of shape (1,), optional, returned when labels is provided) – Classification loss.
logits (torch.FloatTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, config.num_labels)) – Classification scores (before SoftMax).
hidden_states (tuple(torch.FloatTensor), optional, returned when output_hidden_states=True is passed or when config.output_hidden_states=True) – Tuple of torch.FloatTensor (one for the output of the embeddings + one for the output of each layer) of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size).

Hidden-states of the model at the output of each layer plus the initial embedding outputs.
attentions (tuple(torch.FloatTensor), optional, returned when output_attentions=True is passed or when config.output_attentions=True) – Tuple of torch.FloatTensor (one for each layer) of shape (batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, sequence_length).

Attentions weights after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the self-attention heads.

>>> for word, box in zip(words, normalized_word_boxes):
...     word_tokens = tokenizer.tokenize(word)
...     token_boxes.extend([box] * len(word_tokens))
>>> # add bounding boxes of cls + sep tokens
>>> token_boxes = [[0, 0, 0, 0]] + token_boxes + [[1000, 1000, 1000, 1000]]

>>> encoding = tokenizer(' '.join(words), return_tensors="pt")
>>> input_ids = encoding["input_ids"]

>>> token_type_ids = encoding["token_type_ids"]
>>> bbox = torch.tensor([token_boxes])
>>> token_labels = torch.tensor([1,1,0,0]).unsqueeze(0) # batch size of 1

>>> outputs = model(input_ids=input_ids, bbox=bbox, attention_mask=attention_mask, token_type_ids=token_type_ids,
...                 labels=token_labels)
