Images

This covers how to load images such as JPG or PNG into a document format that we can use downstream.

Using Unstructured

%pip install --upgrade --quiet  pdfminer
from langchain_community.document_loaders.image import UnstructuredImageLoader
loader = UnstructuredImageLoader("layout-parser-paper-fast.jpg")
data = loader.load()

Retain Elements

Under the hood, Unstructured creates different "elements" for different chunks of text. By default we combine those together, but you can easily keep that separation by specifying mode="elements".

loader = UnstructuredImageLoader("layout-parser-paper-fast.jpg", mode="elements")
data = loader.load()
data[0]
Document(page_content='LayoutParser: A Unified Toolkit for Deep\nLearning Based Document Image Analysis\n', lookup_str='', metadata={'source': 'layout-parser-paper-fast.jpg', 'filename': 'layout-parser-paper-fast.jpg', 'page_number': 1, 'category': 'Title'}, lookup_index=0)
