DocPrompt: Large-scale continue pretrain for zero-shot and few-shot document question answering

Sijin Wu, Dan Zhang, Teng Hu, Shikun Feng

In this paper, we propose Docprompt for document question answering tasks with powerful zero-shot and few-shot performance. We proposed a novel weakly supervised data generation method, a novel multl-stage training method and a novel understanding model \& generation model ensemble method. We achieved state-of-the-art performance on 4 document question answering tasks. This method greatly improves the delivery efficiency and model performance of document question answering customer projects, reducing annotation costs and labor costs.
