Receipt-AVQA-2023 Challenge
Budapest, Hungary, Artur Begaev, Evgeny Orlov · Computational Linguistics and Intellectual Technologies · 2023
In this work, we introduce a new challenging Document VQA dataset, named Receipt AVQA, and present the results of the associated RECEIPT-AVQA-2023 shared task. Receipt AVQA is comprised of 21835 questions in English over 1957 receipt images. The receipts contain a lot of numbers, which means discrete reasoning capability is required to answer the questions. The associated shared task has attracted 4 teams that have managed to beat an extractive VQA baseline in the final phase of the competition. We hope that the published dataset and promising results of the contestants will inspire further research on understanding documents in scenarios that require discrete reasoning.
