Query: Capturing Logical Structure of Visually Structured Documents with
  Multimodal Transition Parser   While many NLP pipelines assume raw, clean texts, many texts we encounter in
the wild, including a vast majority of legal documents, are not so clean, with
many of them being visually structured documents (VSDs) such as PDFs.
Conventional preprocessing tools for VSDs mainly focused on word segmentation
and coarse layout analysis, whereas fine-grained logical structure analysis
(such as identifying paragraph boundaries and their hierarchies) of VSDs is
underexplored. To that end, we proposed to formulate the task as prediction of
"transition labels" between text fragments that maps the fragments to a tree,
and developed a feature-based machine learning system that fuses visual,
textual and semantic cues.Our system is easily customizable to different types
of VSDs and it significantly outperformed baselines in identifying different
structures in VSDs. For example, our system obtained a paragraph boundary
detection F1 score of 0.953 which is significantly better than a popular
PDF-to-text tool with an F1 score of 0.739.
