Unlocking Insights From Multimodal PDFs Using OpenSearch and Vision-Language Models
summary
Shows two concrete pipelines: one converts PDF tables/images into text (CSV, captions) and stores Titan embeddings via OpenSearch ingest pipelines; the other indexes page images with multi-vector VLMs like ColPali late interaction and rescoring. Demo indexes 7,000+ pages, returns exact table-derived answers (London highest price) and exposes token→patch attributions. Claims pooling to 3 vectors keeps 99.7% retrieval quality, offers an ML connector to SageMaker and an open Hugging Face demo; RFC for native late‑interaction support is filed.
