PaddleOCR-VL-1.6 is a plug-and-play 0.9B upgrade of 1.5 (96.33% SOTA on
OmniDocBench v1.6). vLLM offline backend with the six task modes (ocr, table,
formula, chart, spotting, seal) and --config/--create-pr for benchmark runs.
Must run in image-mode on HF Jobs (vllm/vllm-openai image) so flashinfer's
CUDA kernels are reused; the default uv-script image has no nvcc. Verified
end-to-end on a100-large: 5/5 clean markdown on ufo-ColPali, ~240 tok/s.
nuextract3: add --instructions for chat_template_kwargs.instructions
Exposes NuExtract3's `instructions` chat-template kwarg, a free-text
steering lever for output formats and routing across union/optional
schema branches. Mirrors the existing `--enable-thinking` passthrough:
new arg, plumbed via main() into chat_template_kwargs only when truthy
(no-op when omitted).
Docs: https://huggingface.co/numind/NuExtract3#instructions
Smoke (davanstrien/ufo-ColPali, 3 samples, extraction mode,
template={"title": "string", "author": "string"},
instruction="Prepend 'INSTR-OK::' to the title value"):
sentinel landed in 3/3 extractions.
Teklia French vital-records (58 cards, superset Baptême/Mariage/Décès
template + type_acte enum + French routing instruction): strict
F1 0.281 -> 0.321. Modest; the model partially honours the
branch-null routing (emits empty {} subdicts rather than null for
non-matched branches), which is consistent with NuExtract3's
shape-binding template engine. Per-user instruction tuning lives
downstream of this flag.
dots-mocr: skip whole batch when an image fails to decode

Same class of bug as pp-doclayout's (15cd760) and smoldocling's (8b99222)
fixes from yesterday: the list comprehension
`[dataset[i][image_column] for i in batch_indices]` lives outside the
existing try/except, so one PIL.UnidentifiedImageError takes down the
entire run.
Hit by an overnight 5k BHL run on l4x1 — crashed at batch 150/313 (48%)
after ~10h on a corrupt JP2, no output saved.
Now wrapped in its own try/except. On a corrupt image, the whole batch
is marked `[OCR SKIPPED — UNREADABLE IMAGE]` (length-preserving so the
final add_column still aligns) and the run continues.
Smoke-tested via hf jobs uv run on a 50-image clean slice — confirmed
happy path still works end-to-end (14.2 min, dataset pushed cleanly).

smoldocling-ocr: skip whole batch when an image fails to decode

8b99222
Same class of bug as pp-doclayout's earlier fix today: the list
comprehension `[dataset[i][image_column] for i in batch_indices]` lives
outside the existing try/except, so one PIL.UnidentifiedImageError
takes down the entire run.
Now wrapped in its own try/except. On a corrupt image, the whole batch
is marked `[OCR SKIPPED — UNREADABLE IMAGE]` (length-preserving so the
final add_column still aligns) and the run continues.
Coarser than per-image skip, but matches the existing batch-level
error handling and the dots-mocr.py pattern.

pp-doclayout: skip corrupt images instead of crashing the run
davanstrien+1: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context)HF Staff
15cd760
Previously, a single corrupt image (UnidentifiedImageError or OSError)
in the source bucket or dataset would terminate the entire run via an
unhandled exception in the gen() iterator. On a 5000-image run, hitting
a truncated/unreadable file at sample 2400 wasted ~1 hour of GPU time.
Now both iter_bucket_images() and iter_dataset_images() catch
UnidentifiedImageError and OSError per image, log a WARNING with the
path, and continue. A summary "Skipped N unreadable image(s)" is logged
when the iterator exhausts. Run completes with whatever images were
readable.

falcon-ocr-bucket: add --max-samples with early-termination scan
davanstrien+1: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context)HF Staff
efa4eb1
Mirrors pp-doclayout's --max-samples flag for falcon-ocr-bucket. When
set, discover_files() stops scanning once the limit is reached instead
of materializing-and-sorting the full directory tree first. Useful for
smoke tests and bounded slices on large mounted buckets.
Without --max-samples: full sorted list (deterministic, unchanged).
With --max-samples N: up to N files in filesystem-traversal order.

Add pp-doclayout.py to README (layout detection, separate from OCR)
PaddleOCR PP-DocLayout-L for document layout detection (text/title/table/figure/formula/...). Supports HF dataset and HF bucket source/sink, incremental parquet shards with resumable runs (snapshot-backed), JP2 input. Verified end-to-end on L4: dataset->dataset, dataset->bucket, bucket->dataset, bucket->bucket, resume.
Add AGENTS.md for coding agent discovery

Agent-facing doc that points at live sources of truth (CLI --help,
hf jobs hardware, model card eval results API) rather than duplicating
info that goes stale. Covers script selection, dataset vs bucket I/O
patterns, common flags, and gotchas.

Layout mode is currently broken upstream (PPDocLayoutV3ImageProcessorFast
import fails with latest transformers). Removing it for now; can re-enable
once falcon-perception updates.
Also adds --progress flag to expose the engine's per-image tqdm bar,
and replaces script-level batch tqdm with logger.info messages.
