Im2Latex
Seq2Seq model with Attention + Beam Search for Image to LaTeX, similar to Show, Attend and Tell and Harvard's paper and dataset.
Check the blog post.
Install pdflatex (latex to pdf) and ghostsript + magick (pdf to png) on Linux
make install-linux
(takes a while ~ 10 min, installs from source)
On Mac, assuming you already have a LaTeX distribution installed, you should have pdflatex and ghostscript installed, so you just need to install magick. You can try
make install-mac
We provide a small dataset just to check the pipeline. To build the images, train the model and evaluate
make small
You should observe that the model starts to produce reasonable patterns of LaTeX after a few minutes.
We provide the pre-processed formulas from Harvard but you'll need to produce the images from those formulas (a few hours on a laptop).
make build
Alternatively, you can download the prebuilt dataset from Harvard and use their preprocessing scripts found here
If you already did make build you can just train and evaluate the model with the following commands
make train
make eval
Or, to build the images from the formulas, train the model and evaluate, run
make full
- Build the images from the formulas, write the matching file and extract the vocabulary. Run only once for a dataset
python build.py --data=configs/data.json --vocab=configs/vocab.json
- Train
python train.py --data=configs/data.json --vocab=configs/vocab.json --training=configs/training.json --model=configs/model.json --output=results/full/
- Evaluate the text metrics
python evaluate_txt.py --results=results/full/
- Evaluate the image metrics
python evaluate_img.py --results=results/full/
(To get more information on the arguments, run)
python file.py --help
