- `lxml` is a much faster library than `bs4` when the input data is
regular
- since the hOCR data is guaranteed to be regular (programmatically
generated) we don't need `bs4` here to parse the data
- `lxml` improves parsing speed by about 10x
Example runtime profiling locally using the same `hocr` data from 1 page
pdf, where `agent.hocr_to_dataframe_bs4` is the current method on main
and `agent.hocr_to_dataframe` is the PR's method.
This PR allows passing down both `ocr_agent` and `table_ocr_agent` as
parameters to specify the `OCRAgent` class for the page and tables, if
any, respectively. Both are default to using `tesseract`, consistent
with the present default behavior.
We used to rely on env variables to specify the agents but os env can be
changed during runtime outside of the caller's control. This method of
passing down the variables ensures that specification is independent of
env changes.
## testing
Using `example-docs/img/layout-parser-paper-with-table.jpg` and run
partition with two different settings. Note that this test requires
`paddleocr` extra.
```python
from unstructured.partition.auto import partition
from unstructured.partition.utils.constants import OCR_AGENT_TESSERACT, OCR_AGENT_PADDLE
elements = partition(f, strategy="hi_res", skip_infer_table_types=[], ocr_agent=OCR_AGENT_TESSERACT, table_ocr_agent=OCR_AGENT_PADDLE)
elements_alt = partition(f, strategy="hi_res", skip_infer_table_types=[], ocr_agent=OCR_AGENT_PADDLE, table_ocr_agent=OCR_AGENT_TESSERACT)
```
we should see both finish and slight differences in the table element's
text attribute.
- there is a bug in deciding if a page has tables before performing
table extraction. This logic checks if the id associated with Table type
element is True
- however, it should be checking if the id is `None` because sometimes
the id can be 0 (the first type of element in the page)
- the fix updates the logic
- adds a unit test for this specific case
This PR refactors the data structure for `list[LayoutElement]` and
`list[TextRegion]` used in partition pdf/image files.
- new data structure replaces a list of objects with one object with
`numpy` array to store data
- this only affects partition internal steps and it doesn't change input
or output signature of `partition` function itself, i.e., `partition`
still returns `list[Element]`
- internally `list[LayoutElement]` -> `LayoutElements`;
`list[TextRegion]` -> `TextRegions`
- current refactor stops before clean up pdfminer elements inside
inferred layout elements -> the algorithm of clean up needs to be
refactored before the data structure refactor can move forward. So
current refactor converts the array data structure into list data
structure with `element_array.as_list()` call. This is the last step
before turning `list[LayoutElement]` into `list[Element]` as return
- a future PR will update this last step so that we build
`list[Element]` from `LayoutElements` data structure instead.
The goal of this PR is to replace the data structure as much as possible
without changing underlying logic. There are a few places where the
slicing or filtering logic was simple enough to be converted into vector
data structure operations. Those are refactored to be vector based. As a
result there is some small improvements observed in ingest test. This is
likely because the vector operations cleaned up some previous
inconsistency in data types and operations.

This change adds the ability to filter out characters predicted by
Tesseract with low confidence scores.
Some notes:
- I intentionally disabled it by default; I think some low score(like
0.9-0.95 for Tesseract) could be a safe choice though
- I wanted to use character bboxes and combine them into word bbox
later. However, a bug in Tesseract in some specific scenarios returns
incorrect character bboxes (unit tests caught it 🥳 ). More in comment in
the code
This PR addresses issue #3659 by adding an optional `language` parameter
to the `OCRAgentGoogleVision` class constructor.
This parameter serves as a "language hint" for the
`document_text_detection` method in the `ImageAnnotatorClient`. For more
information on language hints, refer to the [Google Cloud Vision
documentation](https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs/languages).
**Default Behavior**:
The language parameter defaults to None, allowing Google Cloud Vision to
auto-detect the language, as recommended in their documentation.
**Purpose**:
This change is necessary because the `OCRAgent`'s `get_instance` method
expects all `OCRAgent`s to include a language parameter in their
constructors.
**Context on Issue:**
When trying to parse a PDF with
`OCR_AGENT=unstructured.partition.utils.ocr_models.google_vision_ocr.OCRAgentGoogleVision`,
an error occurs in the `get_instance` method. The method expects a
`language` parameter, which the current `OCRAgentGoogleVision`
constructor does not support, leading to a positional argument error.

This PR reverts `pytesseract` dependency to `unstructured.pytesseract`
fork due to the unavailability of some recent release versions of
`pytesseract` on PyPI.
This PR also addresses an issue encountered during the publication of
`unstructured==0.15.4` to PyPI. The error was due to the fact that PyPI
does not allow direct dependencies from Version Control System URLs like
GitHub in the `install_requires` or `extras_require` sections of the
`setup.py` file.
Closes#3159.
This PR extends language specification capability to `PaddleOCR` in
addition to `TesseractOCR`. Users can now specify OCR languages for both
OCR engines when using `partition_pdf()`.
### Testing
```
os.environ["OCR_AGENT"] = "unstructured.partition.utils.ocr_models.paddle_ocr.OCRAgentPaddle"
elements = partition_pdf(
filename=<file_path>,
strategy=strategy,
languages=["chi_sim"], # chinese - simplified
infer_table_structure=True,
)
```
This PR adds a third OCR provider, alongside Tesseract and Paddle: the
[Google Cloud Vision API](https://cloud.google.com/vision).
It can be used similarly to other OCR methods: set the `OCR_AGENT`
environment variable to the path to the OCR module
(`unstructured.partition.utils.ocr_models.google_vision_ocr.OCRAgentGoogleVision`).
You also need to set the credentials to use Google APIs, for instance by
setting the `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS` environment variable.

The purpose of this PR is to refactor OCR-related modules to reduce
unnecessary module imports to avoid potential issues (most likely due to
a "circular import").
### Summary
- add `inference_utils` module
(unstructured/partition/pdf_image/inference_utils.py) to define
unstructured-inference library related utility functions, which will
reduce importing unstructured-inference library functions in other files
- add `conftest.py` in `test_unstructured/partition/pdf_image/`
directory to define fixtures that are available to all tests in the same
directory and its subdirectories
### Testing
CI should pass
This is nice to natively support both Tesseract and Paddle. However, one
might already use another OCR and might want to keep using it (for
quality reasons, for cost reasons etc...).
This PR adds the ability for the user to specify its own OCR agent
implementation that is then called by unstructured.
I am new to unstructured so don't hesitate to let me know if you would
prefer this being done differently and I will rework the PR.

[CORE-2969](https://unstructured-ai.atlassian.net/browse/CORE-2969)
- pdfminer sometimes fail to decode text in an pdf file and returns cid
codes as text
- now those text will be considered invalid and be replaced with ocr
results in `hi_res` mode
## test
This PR adds unit test for the utility functions. In addition the file
below would return elements with text in cid code on main but proper
ascii text with this PR:

### Summary
This PR is the second part of `pdfminer` refactor to move it from
`unstructured-inference` repo to `unstructured` repo, the first part is
done in
https://github.com/Unstructured-IO/unstructured-inference/pull/294. This
PR adds logic to merge the extracted layout with the inferred layout.
The updated workflow for the `hi_res` strategy:
* pass the document (as data/filename) to the `inference` repo to get
`inferred_layout` (DocumentLayout)
* pass the `inferred_layout` returned from the `inference` repo and the
document (as data/filename) to the `pdfminer_processing` module, which
first opens the document (create temp file/dir as needed), and splits
the document by pages
* if is_image is `True`, return the passed
inferred_layout(DocumentLayout)
* if is_image is `False`:
* get extracted_layout (TextRegions) from the passed
document(data/filename) by pdfminer
* merge `extracted_layout` (TextRegions) with the passed
`inferred_layout` (DocumentLayout)
* return the `inferred_layout `(DocumentLayout) with updated elements
(all merged LayoutElements) as merged_layout (DocumentLayout)
* pass merged_layout and the document (as data/filename) to the `OCR`
module, which first opens the document (create temp file/dir as needed),
and splits the document by pages (convert PDF pages to image pages for
PDF file)
### Note
This PR also fixes issue #2164 by using functionality similar to the one
implemented in the `fast` strategy workflow when extracting elements by
`pdfminer`.
### TODO
* image extraction refactor to move it from `unstructured-inference`
repo to `unstructured` repo
* improving natural reading order by applying the current default
`xycut` sorting to the elements extracted by `pdfminer`
### Summary
- add constants for element type
- replace the `TYPE_TO_TEXT_ELEMENT_MAP` dictionary using the
`ElementType` constants
- replace element type strings using the constants
### Testing
CI should pass.
### Summary
Update `ocr_only` strategy in `partition_pdf()`. This PR adds the
functionality to get accurate coordinate data when partitioning PDFs and
Images with the `ocr_only` strategy.
- Add functionality to perform OCR region grouping based on the OCR text
taken from `pytesseract.image_to_string()`
- Add functionality to get layout elements from OCR regions (ocr_layout)
for both `tesseract` and `paddle`
- Add functionality to determine the `source` of merged text regions
when merging text regions in `merge_text_regions()`
- Merge multiple test functions related to "ocr_only" strategy into
`test_partition_pdf_with_ocr_only_strategy()`
- This PR also fixes [issue
#1792](https://github.com/Unstructured-IO/unstructured/issues/1792)

### Description
Currently linting only takes place over the base unstructured directory
but we support python files throughout the repo. It makes sense for all
those files to also abide by the same linting rules so the entire repo
was set to be inspected when the linters are run. Along with that
autoflake was added as a linter which has a lot of added benefits such
as removing unused imports for you that would currently break flake and
require manual intervention.
The only real relevant changes in this PR are in the `Makefile`,
`setup.cfg`, and `requirements/test.in`. The rest is the result of
running the linters.
PR to support schema changes introduced from [PR
232](https://github.com/Unstructured-IO/unstructured-inference/pull/232)
in `unstructured-inference`.
Specifically what needs to be supported is:
* Change to the way `LayoutElement` from `unstructured-inference` is
structured, specifically that this class is no longer a subclass of
`Rectangle`, and instead `LayoutElement` has a `bbox` property that
captures the location information and a `from_coords` method that allows
construction of a `LayoutElement` directly from coordinates.
* Removal of `LocationlessLayoutElement` since chipper now exports
bounding boxes, and if we need to support elements without bounding
boxes, we can make the `bbox` property mentioned above optional.
* Getting hierarchy data directly from the inference elements rather
than in post-processing
* Don't try to reorder elements received from chipper v2, as they should
already be ordered.
#### Testing:
The following demonstrates that the new version of chipper is inferring
hierarchy.
```python
from unstructured.partition.pdf import partition_pdf
elements = partition_pdf("example-docs/layout-parser-paper-fast.pdf", strategy="hi_res", model_name="chipper")
children = [el for el in elements if el.metadata.parent_id is not None]
print(children)
```
Also verify that running the traditional `hi_res` gives different
results:
```python
from unstructured.partition.pdf import partition_pdf
elements = partition_pdf("example-docs/layout-parser-paper-fast.pdf", strategy="hi_res")
```

Each partitioner has a test like `test_partition_x_with_json()`. What
these do is serialize the elements produced by the partitioner to JSON,
then read them back in from JSON and compare the before and after
elements.
Because our element equality (`Element.__eq__()`) is shallow, this
doesn't tell us a lot, but if we take it one more step, like
`List[Element] -> JSON -> List[Element] -> JSON` and then compare the
JSON, it gives us some confidence that the serialized elements can be
"re-hydrated" without losing any information.
This actually showed up a few problems, all in the
serialization/deserialization (serde) code that all elements share.
