About

What lilt-infoxlm is

Language-Independent Layout Transformer - InfoXLM model by stitching a pre-trained InfoXLM and a pre-trained Language-Independent Layout Transformer (LiLT) together. It was introduced in the paper LiLT: A Simple yet Effective Language-Independent Layout Transformer for Structured Document Understanding by Wang et al. and first released in this repository.

Disclaimer: The team releasing LiLT did not write a model card for this model so this model card has been written by the Hugging Face team.

Model description

The Language-Independent Layout Transformer (LiLT) allows to combine any pre-trained RoBERTa encoder from the hub (hence, in any language) with a lightweight Layout Transformer to have a LayoutLM-like model for any language.

Intended uses & limitations

The model is meant to be fine-tuned on tasks like document image classification, document parsing and document QA. See the model hub to look for fine-tuned versions on a task that interests you.

How to use

For code examples, we refer to the documentation.

Using it via the API

Call it like any OpenAI endpoint

Once AxForge deploys lilt-infoxlm for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (lilt-infoxlm below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)

$ curl -sS https://api.axforge.ai/v1/embeddings \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AXFORGE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model":"lilt-infoxlm","input":"text to embed"}'
