What is pix2struct-base?
Pix2Struct-base is a powerful image encoder-text decoder model designed for visual language understanding tasks. Developed by Google, this 282M parameter model represents a significant advancement in processing visually-situated language, from textbooks with diagrams to web pages with images and tables.
Implementation Details
The model utilizes a unique pretraining strategy where it learns to parse masked screenshots of web pages into simplified HTML. This approach incorporates multiple learning signals including OCR, language modeling, and image captioning. The architecture features a variable-resolution input representation and flexible integration of language and vision inputs.
