  • 从真实牙科账单中提取2000张表格图像,含高精度HTML结构标注。
  • 16个模型测试显示,结构识别好不等于能正确做多步计算和逻辑判断。
  • 提出表格路由管道,用规则引擎精准执行算术题,无需重新训练。

表格将关键交易与行政信息浓缩于紧凑布局中,但实际提取不仅需文字识别,还需恢复结构(行、列、合并单元格、表头)并理解项目、小计、总计等角色,且要应对常见拍摄噪声。现有表格结构识别与TableVQA数据集多来自干净的数字源或渲染表,难以反映真实场景的复杂性。我们提出DenTab,包含2000张来自牙科账单的裁剪表格图像及高质量HTML标注,支持在同一输入上评估表格识别(TR)与表格视觉问答(TableVQA)。DenTab涵盖11类共2208个问题,覆盖检索、聚合与逻辑/一致性检查。我们对16个系统进行了基准测试,包括14个视觉-语言模型(VLMs)和两个OCR基线。结果显示,尽管结构恢复能力强,但在多步算术与一致性问题上表现仍不稳定,即使使用真实HTML输入也存在推理失败。为在不训练的情况下提升算术可靠性,我们提出表格路由管道(Table Router Pipeline),该管道将算术问题路由至确定性执行器:结合(i)一个生成基础答案、结构化表格表示和受限表格程序的VLM,与(ii)基于规则的执行器,后者在解析表格上进行精确计算。代码与数据集将公开于https://github.com/hamdilaziz/DenTab。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Tables condense key transactional and administrative information into compact layouts, but practical extraction requires more than text recognition: systems must also recover structure (rows, columns, merged cells, headers) and interpret roles such as line items, subtotals, and totals under common capture artifacts. Many existing resources for table structure recognition and TableVQA are built from clean digital-born sources or rendered tables, and therefore only partially reflect noisy administrative conditions. We introduce DenTab, a dataset of 2{,}000 cropped table images from dental estimates with high-quality HTML annotations, enabling evaluation of table recognition (TR) and table visual question answering (TableVQA) on the same inputs. DenTab includes 2{,}208 questions across eleven categories spanning retrieval, aggregation, and logic/consistency checks. We benchmark 16 systems, including 14 vision--language models (VLMs) and two OCR baselines. Across models, strong structure recovery does not consistently translate into reliable performance on multi-step arithmetic and consistency questions, and these reasoning failures persist even when using ground-truth HTML table inputs. To improve arithmetic reliability without training, we propose the Table Router Pipeline, which routes arithmetic questions to deterministic execution. The pipeline combines (i) a VLM that produces a baseline answer, a structured table representation, and a constrained table program with (ii) a rule-based executor that performs exact computation over the parsed table. The source code and dataset will be made publicly available at https://github.com/hamdilaziz/DenTab.
