About
The UDOP model was proposed in Unifying Vision, Text, and Layout for Universal Document Processing by Zineng Tang, Ziyi Yang, Guoxin Wang, Yuwei Fang, Yang Liu, Chenguang Zhu, Michael Zeng, Cha Zhang, Mohit Bansal.
UDOP adopts an encoder-decoder Transformer architecture based on T5 for document AI tasks like document image classification, document parsing and document visual question answering.
You can use the model for document image classification, document parsing and document visual question answering (DocVQA).
Here's how to use the model on a document image:
from transformers import AutoProcessor, UdopForConditionalGeneration
from datasets import load_dataset
# load model and processor
# in this case, we already have performed OCR ourselves
# so we initialize the processor with `apply_ocr=False`
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained("microsoft/udop-large", apply_ocr=False)
model = UdopForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("microsoft/udop-large")
# load an example image, along with the words and coordinates
# which were extracted using an OCR engine
dataset = load_dataset("nielsr/funsd-layoutlmv3", split="train")
example = dataset[0]
image = example["image"]
words = example["tokens"]
boxes = example["bboxes"]
question = "Question answering. What is the date on the form?"
# prepare everything for the model
encoding = processor(image, question, words, boxes=boxes, return_tensors="pt")
# autoregressive generation
predicted_ids = model.generate(**encoding)
print(processor.batch_decode(predicted_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)[0])

Using it via the API
Once AxForge deploys udop-large for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (udop-large below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)
$ curl -sS https://api.axforge.ai/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $AXFORGE_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model":"udop-large","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}'
