Multimodal Approaches for Visually-Rich Document Type Classification: A Comparative Analysis
Document type classification in visually rich documents remains challenging, as relevant information is distributed across textual, visual, and layout modalities. To capture this complexity, current approaches rely on diverse multimodal modeling strategies, resulting in heterogeneous architectures that complicate systematic comparison. This variability is also reflected in existing comparative studies, which often rely on heterogeneous evaluation setups, further complicating systematic comparison and making it difficult to assess progress. To address these limitations, this work provides a structured analysis of multimodal design strategies across transformer- and LLM-based architectures,...
