# Document OCR using DeepSeek-OCR

This dataset contains markdown-formatted OCR results from images in [Sigurdur/isl-finepdfs-images](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Sigurdur/isl-finepdfs-images) using DeepSeek-OCR.

## Processing Details

- **Source Dataset**: [Sigurdur/isl-finepdfs-images](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Sigurdur/isl-finepdfs-images)
- **Model**: [deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-OCR](https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-OCR)
- **Number of Samples**: 10
- **Processing Time**: 4.1 min
- **Processing Date**: 2026-03-05 11:07 UTC

### Configuration

- **Image Column**: `image`
- **Output Column**: `markdown`
- **Dataset Split**: `train`
- **Batch Size**: 8
- **Max Model Length**: 8,192 tokens
- **Max Output Tokens**: 8,192
- **GPU Memory Utilization**: 80.0%

## Model Information

DeepSeek-OCR is a state-of-the-art document OCR model that excels at:
- LaTeX equations - Mathematical formulas preserved in LaTeX format
- Tables - Extracted and formatted as HTML/markdown
- Document structure - Headers, lists, and formatting maintained
- Image grounding - Spatial layout and bounding box information
- Complex layouts - Multi-column and hierarchical structures
- Multilingual - Supports multiple languages

## Dataset Structure

The dataset contains all original columns plus:
- `markdown`: The extracted text in markdown format with preserved structure
- `inference_info`: JSON list tracking all OCR models applied to this dataset

## Usage

```python
from datasets import load_dataset
import json

# Load the dataset
dataset = load_dataset("{{output_dataset_id}}", split="train")

# Access the markdown text
for example in dataset:
    print(example["markdown"])
    break

# View all OCR models applied to this dataset
inference_info = json.loads(dataset[0]["inference_info"])
for info in inference_info:
    print(f"Column: {{info['column_name']}} - Model: {{info['model_id']}}")
```

## Reproduction

This dataset was generated using the [uv-scripts/ocr](https://huggingface.co/datasets/uv-scripts/ocr) DeepSeek OCR vLLM script:

```bash
uv run https://huggingface.co/datasets/uv-scripts/ocr/raw/main/deepseek-ocr-vllm.py \\
    Sigurdur/isl-finepdfs-images \\
    <output-dataset> \\
    --image-column image
```

## Performance

- **Processing Speed**: ~0.0 images/second
- **Processing Method**: Batch processing with vLLM (2-3x speedup over sequential)
