BaFCo: A Document Understanding Benchmark for Complex Bangla Form Comprehension

BaFCo: A Document Understanding Benchmark for Complex Bangla Form Comprehension

Short summary

BaFCo is a new benchmark dataset for evaluating multimodal LLMs on complex Bangla government form comprehension, covering 200 multi-page forms across sectors like agriculture, education, banking, and land management. The benchmark tests Document Layout Analysis and Key Information Extraction using a fine-grained 26-entity annotation schema, evaluating leading MLLMs (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Qwen, Kimi) under zero-shot and chain-of-thought setups. Results reveal significant limitations in current models' ability to accurately localize granular form entities in low-resource Bangla documents.
