# ScreenParser

**ScreenParser** is a YOLO-based UI element detector fine-tuned on [ScreenParse](https://huggingface.co/docling-project/screenparse), a large-scale dataset of 771K web page screenshots with dense annotations across **55 UI element classes**. Given a screenshot, it detects and classifies every visible UI component with bounding boxes and confidence scores.

## Model Summary

ScreenParser is a [YOLO11-Large](https://docs.ultralytics.com/models/yolo11/) model (25.4M parameters) fine-tuned at 1280px resolution on ScreenParse.

### Supported Classes (55)

Table, Column/Browser, Button, Utility Button, App Icon, Navigation Bar, Status Bar, Search Field, Toolbar, Tooltip, Video, Tab Bar, Side Bar, Slider, Picker, ContextMenu, DockMenu, EditMenu, Image, Scroll, Switch, File Icon, Chart, Window, Screen, List, List Item, PopUp Menu, Steppers, Toggles, Text Input, Rating Indicator, Checkbox, Radiobox, Select, Avatar, Badge, Alert, Progress bar, Bottom navigation, Breadcrumb, Page control, Link, Menu, Pagination, Tab, Search Bar, Date-Time picker, Calendar, Text, Heading, Code snippet, Carousel, Notification, Logo

## Usage

### Single Image Inference

```python
from ultralytics import YOLO
from PIL import Image

model = YOLO("docling-project/ScreenParser")

results = model.predict("screenshot.png", imgsz=1280, conf=0.10, iou=0.10)

for r in results:
    for box, cls_id, conf in zip(r.boxes.xyxy, r.boxes.cls, r.boxes.conf):
        x1, y1, x2, y2 = box.tolist()
        label = model.names[int(cls_id)]
        print(f"{label:20s}  conf={conf:.2f}  bbox=({int(x1)}, {int(y1)}, {int(x2-x1)}, {int(y2-y1)})")
```

### Batch Inference

```python
import os
from ultralytics import YOLO

model = YOLO("docling-project/ScreenParser")
IMAGE_DIR = "screenshots/"

images = sorted(
    os.path.join(IMAGE_DIR, f) for f in os.listdir(IMAGE_DIR)
    if f.lower().endswith((".png", ".jpg", ".jpeg"))
)

results = model.predict(images, imgsz=1280, conf=0.10, iou=0.10, batch=16)

for path, r in zip(images, results):
    print(f"--- {os.path.basename(path)} ({len(r.boxes)} elements) ---")
    for box, cls_id, conf in zip(r.boxes.xyxy, r.boxes.cls, r.boxes.conf):
        x1, y1, x2, y2 = box.tolist()
        label = model.names[int(cls_id)]
        print(f"  {label:20s}  conf={conf:.2f}  bbox=({int(x1)}, {int(y1)}, {int(x2-x1)}, {int(y2-y1)})")
```

### Save Visualizations

```python
from ultralytics import YOLO

model = YOLO("docling-project/ScreenParser")
results = model.predict("screenshot.png", imgsz=1280, conf=0.10, iou=0.10, save=True)
# Annotated image saved under runs/detect/predict/
```

**Training data**: [ScreenParse](https://huggingface.co/docling-project/screenparse) — 771K web page screenshots with dense annotations across 55 UI element classes. Annotations were generated through automated DOM extraction, IoU-based filtering, and VLM-based refinement.

## Limitations

- Does not produce text content for detected elements (bounding boxes and labels only) — pair with an OCR model or [ScreenVLM](https://huggingface.co/docling-project/ScreenVLM) for text extraction
