Document Layout, Table Structure and Key Information Extraction
Models that use text, layout and image together to classify documents, find tables and pull fields from forms.
Tier Grades
Tier A: Frontier AI labs
feasible
Microsoft and other big labs set the LayoutLM line.
Tier B: Indonesian AI labs
feasible
Fine-tuning LayoutLM-class models on Indonesian forms fits an Indonesian lab.
Tier C: Institution units such as ITB
feasible
A 5-author team produced LayoutLMv3; a university unit can work on it.
Tier D: Organisations such as SEMAI (PoT, PoC, PoV)
feasible
Field extraction from invoices and claims is a common proof of value.
Where this comes from
Tiers: a) frontier AI labs, b) Indonesian AI labs, c) institution units such as ITB, d) organisations such as SEMAI delivering proof of technology, concept and value. Each rationale cites the anchors below.
Anchors
- ComputeTraining compute is not in the sources read.
- DataNot in the sources read.
- Team size (proxy)Proxy only (author count of an exemplar paper, not a headcount): 5 authors on the LayoutLMv3 paper (arXiv 2204.08387).
- Time horizonYears.
- Shelf-life signalsDocument VLMs absorb layout models, Multilingual layout models cover Bahasa Indonesia forms
- Pipeline roleTier A releases layout models; Tier C builds local form datasets; Tier D builds invoice and claims extraction pilots.
Where this comes from
Team size is a proxy (author counts of exemplar papers), not a headcount.
