Very interesting! Is this the state of the art for accurate OCR of tabular PDFs, or is there other work in the space to compare against?

There's lots of posts on HN for developments and companies doing OCR and Document Extraction. It's a classic CV problem but still has come a long way in the past couple years

This is such an excellent example of a responsible and thorough application of vision LLMs to a gnarly data entry problem.

It’s also an excellent example on how lack of forced machine-readable format for gov publishing is a PITA.

json to qr code would be a good start. PRIOR ART inb4 a troll.
