Recipes for learning, fine-tuning, and adapting ColPali to your multimodal RAG use cases. 👨🏻🍳
This project provides practical guides for working with ColPali, a model that helps you find documents by looking at their visual features, not just text. You feed it document pages as images, and it helps you retrieve relevant documents more accurately by understanding layouts, charts, and tables. It's for anyone who needs to quickly and precisely search through large collections of complex documents like reports, scientific papers, or contracts.
355 stars. No commits in the last 6 months.
Use this if you need to efficiently retrieve documents where visual information, such as charts, tables, and page layout, is critical to understanding their content and relevance.
Not ideal if your documents are purely text-based without any significant visual elements, or if you only need to perform simple keyword searches.
