🔥🔥 CDM: A Reliable Metric for Fair and Accurate Formula Recognition Evaluation
Welcome to the official repository of UniMERNet, a solution that converts images of mathematical expressions into LaTeX, suitable for a wide range of real-world scenarios.
2024.09.06 🎉🎉 UniMERNet Update: The new version features a smaller model and faster inference. Training code is now open-sourced. For details, see the latest paper UniMERNet.
2024.09.06 🎉🎉 Introducing a new metric for formula recognition: CDM. Compared to BLEU/EditDistance, CDM provides a more intuitive and accurate evaluation score, allowing for fair comparison of different models without being affected by formula expression diversity.
2024.07.21 🎉🎉 Add Math Formula Detection (MFD) Tutorial based on PDF-Extract-Kit MFD model.
2024.06.06 🎉🎉 Open-sourced evaluation code for UniMER dataset.
2024.05.06 🎉🎉 Open-sourced UniMER dataset, including UniMER-1M for model training and UniMER-Test for MER evaluation.
2024.05.06 🎉🎉 Add Streamlit formula recognition demo and provided local deployment App.
2024.04.24 🎉🎉 Paper now available on ArXiv.
2024.04.24 🎉🎉 Inference code and checkpoints have been released.

Create a clean Conda environment
conda create -n unimernet python=3.10
conda activate unimernet
Method 1: Install via pip (recommended for general users)
pip install -U "unimernet[full]"
Method 2: Local installation (recommended for developers)
pip install -e ."[full]"
Streamlit Application: For an interactive and user-friendly experience, use our Streamlit-based GUI. This application allows real-time formula recognition and rendering.
unimernet_gui
Ensure you have the latest version of UniMERNet installed (pip install --upgrade unimernet & pip install "unimernet[full]") for the streamlit GUI application.
Command-line Demo: Predict LaTeX code from an image.
python demo.py
Jupyter Notebook Demo: Recognize and render formula from an image.
jupyter-lab ./demo.ipynb
UniMERNet significantly outperforms mainstream models in recognizing real-world mathematical expressions, demonstrating superior performance across Simple Printed Expressions (SPE), Complex Printed Expressions (CPE), Screen-Captured Expressions (SCE), and Handwritten Expressions (HWE), as evidenced by the comparative BLEU Score evaluation.
UniMERNet excels in visual recognition of challenging samples, outperforming other methods.
The UniMER dataset is a specialized collection curated to advance the field of Mathematical Expression Recognition (MER). It encompasses the comprehensive UniMER-1M training set, featuring over one million instances that represent a diverse and intricate range of mathematical expressions, coupled with the UniMER Test Set, meticulously designed to benchmark MER models against real-world scenarios. The dataset details are as follows:
UniMER-1M Training Set:
UniMER Test Set:
You can download the dataset from OpenDataLab (recommended for users in China) or HuggingFace.
Download the UniMER-1M dataset and extract it to the following directory:
./data/UniMER-1M
Download the UniMER-Test dataset and extract it to the following directory:
./data/UniMER-Test
To train the UniMERNet model, follow these steps:
Specify the Training Dataset Path: Open the configs/train fold and set the path to your training dataset.
Run the Training Script: Execute the following command to start the training process.
bash script/train.sh
configs/train fold is correct and accessible.To test the UniMERNet model, follow these steps:
Specify the Test Dataset Path: Open the configs/val fold and set the path to your test dataset.
Run the Test Script: Execute the following command to start the testing process.
bash script/test.sh
configs/val fold is correct and accessible.test.py script will use the specified test dataset for evaluation. Remember to change the test set path in test.py to your actual path.The prerequisite for formula recognition is to detect the areas within PDF or webpage screenshots where formulas are located. The PDF-Extract-Kit includes a powerful model for detecting formulas. If you wish to perform both formula detection and recognition by yourself, you can refer to the Formula Detection Tutorial for guidance on deploying and using the formula detection model.
[✅] Release inference code and checkpoints of UniMERNet.
[✅] Release UniMER-1M and UniMER-Test.
[✅] Open-source the Streamlit formula recognition GUI application.
[✅] Release the training code for UniMERNet.
