# πŸ“Š Banque_Vision: A Multimodal Dataset for Document Understanding
## πŸ“Œ Overview
**Banque_Vision** is a **multimodal dataset** designed for **document-based question answering (QA) and information retrieval**. It combines **textual data** and **visual document representations**, enabling research on **how vision models and language models** interact for document comprehension.
πŸ”— **Created by**: Matteo Khan
πŸŽ“ **Affiliation**: TW3Partners

πŸ”— [Dataset on Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/datasets/YourProfile/banque_vision)
## πŸ“‚ Dataset Structure
- **Document Text**: The full text of the document related to the query.
- **Query**: The question or request for information.
- **Document Page**: The specific page containing the answer.
- **Document Image**: The visual representation (scan or screenshot) of the document page.
This dataset allows models to process and retrieve information across both textual and visual modalities, making it highly relevant for **document AI research**.
## 🎯 Intended Use
This dataset is designed for:
- βœ… **Document-based QA** (e.g., answering questions based on scanned documents)
- βœ… **Information retrieval** from structured/unstructured sources
- βœ… **Multimodal learning** for combining text and vision-based features
- βœ… **OCR-based research** and benchmarking
- βœ… **Fine-tuning vision-language models** like Donut, LayoutLM, and BLIP
## ⚠️ Limitations & Considerations
While **Banque_Vision** is a powerful resource, users should be aware of:
- ❌ **OCR errors**: Text extraction may be imperfect due to document quality.
- ⚠️ **Bias in document sources**: Some domains may be over- or under-represented.
- πŸ”„ **Data labeling noise**: Possible inaccuracies in question-answer alignment.
## πŸ“Š Dataset Format
The dataset is stored in **JSONL** format with the following structure:
```json
{
"document_text": "... The standard interest rate for savings accounts is 2.5% ...",
"document_page": 5,
"query": "What is the interest rate for savings accounts?",
"document_image": "path/to/image.jpg",
}
```
## πŸš€ How to Use
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("YourProfile/banque_vision")
# Example
sample = dataset["train"][0]
print("Query:", sample["query"])
```
## 🌍 Why It Matters
- **Bridges the gap** between text and vision-based document processing.
- **Supports real-world applications** like legal document analysis, financial records processing, and automated document retrieval.
- **Encourages innovation** in hybrid models that combine **LLMs with vision transformers**.
