# TL;DR

The abstract of the paper states that: 

> Visual language such as charts and plots is ubiquitous in the human world. Comprehending plots and charts requires strong reasoning skills. Prior state-of-the-art (SOTA) models require at least tens of thousands of training examples and their reasoning capabilities are still much limited, especially on complex human-written queries. This paper presents the first one-shot solution to visual language reasoning. We decompose the challenge of visual language reasoning into two steps: (1) plot-to-text translation, and (2) reasoning over the translated text. The key in this method is a modality conversion module, named as DePlot, which translates the image of a plot or chart to a linearized table. The output of DePlot can then be directly used to prompt a pretrained large language model (LLM), exploiting the few-shot reasoning capabilities of LLMs. To obtain DePlot, we standardize the plot-to-table task by establishing unified task formats and metrics, and train DePlot end-to-end on this task. DePlot can then be used off-the-shelf together with LLMs in a plug-and-play fashion. Compared with a SOTA model finetuned on more than >28k data points, DePlot+LLM with just one-shot prompting achieves a 24.0% improvement over finetuned SOTA on human-written queries from the task of chart QA.


# Using the model 

## Converting from T5x to huggingface

You can use the [`convert_pix2struct_checkpoint_to_pytorch.py`](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/main/src/transformers/models/pix2struct/convert_pix2struct_original_pytorch_to_hf.py) script as follows:
```bash
python convert_pix2struct_checkpoint_to_pytorch.py --t5x_checkpoint_path PATH_TO_T5X_CHECKPOINTS --pytorch_dump_path PATH_TO_SAVE --is_vqa
```
if you are converting a large model, run:
```bash
python convert_pix2struct_checkpoint_to_pytorch.py --t5x_checkpoint_path PATH_TO_T5X_CHECKPOINTS --pytorch_dump_path PATH_TO_SAVE --use-large --is_vqa
```
Once saved, you can push your converted model with the following snippet:
```python
from transformers import Pix2StructForConditionalGeneration, Pix2StructProcessor

model = Pix2StructForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(PATH_TO_SAVE)
processor = Pix2StructProcessor.from_pretrained(PATH_TO_SAVE)

model.push_to_hub("USERNAME/MODEL_NAME")
processor.push_to_hub("USERNAME/MODEL_NAME")
```

## Run a prediction

You can run a prediction by querying an input image together with a question as follows:
```python
from transformers import Pix2StructForConditionalGeneration, Pix2StructProcessor
import requests
from PIL import Image

model = Pix2StructForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained('google/deplot')
processor = Pix2StructProcessor.from_pretrained('google/deplot')
url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vis-nlp/ChartQA/main/ChartQA%20Dataset/val/png/5090.png"
image = Image.open(requests.get(url, stream=True).raw)

inputs = processor(images=image, text="Generate underlying data table of the figure below:", return_tensors="pt")
predictions = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=512)
print(processor.decode(predictions[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
```
