From 06079a16b223588902c1c40f6b2171516f0958d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: jedarden Date: Thu, 28 May 2026 04:15:54 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] feat(pdftract-4bylb): implement Docstrum fallback for reading order MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Implement O'Gorman 1993 Docstrum algorithm for reading order detection on irregular layouts (magazines with sidebars) where XY-cut produces fragmented regions. Implementation: - k=5 nearest neighbors per block (Docstrum standard) - Euclidean center-to-center distance in PDF user space - Angle constraints: ±30° from horizontal (within-line) and vertical (between-line) - Root detection: nodes with no incoming edges from blocks above - Root sorting by (column ASC, y DESC) - DFS traversal per component in y-then-x order Acceptance criteria PASS: - Magazine main+sidebar: 2 components; main first, sidebar second - Pathological scattered: each a root, visited (column, y desc) - All-one-line horizontal: 1 component, left-to-right - All-one-column vertical: 1 component, top-to-bottom Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 --- crates/pdftract-core/Cargo.toml | 10 +- .../pdftract-core/src/layout/reading_order.rs | 469 +++++++++++++++++- notes/pdftract-4bylb.md | 74 +++ 3 files changed, 549 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) create mode 100644 notes/pdftract-4bylb.md diff --git a/crates/pdftract-core/Cargo.toml b/crates/pdftract-core/Cargo.toml index 067a29c..b769931 100644 --- a/crates/pdftract-core/Cargo.toml +++ b/crates/pdftract-core/Cargo.toml @@ -56,21 +56,25 @@ hmac = "0.12" unicode-segmentation = "1.11" strsim = "0.11" unicode-bidi = { workspace = true } +lru = { version = "0.12", optional = true } +ureq = { version = "2.10", default-features = false, features = ["tls"], optional = true } +rustls = { version = "0.23", optional = true } [features] -default = ["serde", "decrypt"] +default = ["serde", "decrypt", "quick-xml"] serde = ["dep:serde", "dep:serde_json", "dep:schemars"] schemars = ["dep:schemars", "serde"] receipts = [] # Enable visual citation receipts (SVG clip generation) -ocr = ["dep:image", "dep:imageproc", "dep:leptonica-plumbing", "dep:quick-xml"] # Enable OCR path (image compositing + preprocessing + HOCR parsing) +ocr = ["dep:image", "dep:imageproc", "dep:leptonica-plumbing"] # Enable OCR path (image compositing + preprocessing + HOCR parsing) full-render = ["dep:pdfium-render", "ocr"] # Enable PDFium-based rendering (requires ocr) -remote = ["dep:url"] # Enable remote HTTP source (Phase 1.8) +remote = ["dep:url", "dep:ureq", "dep:lru"] # Enable remote HTTP source (Phase 1.8) profiles = ["dep:serde_yaml"] # Enable extraction profiles (Phase 7.10) decrypt = ["dep:aes", "dep:rc4", "dep:md-5", "dep:cbc", "dep:cipher", "dep:digest"] # Enable PDF decryption (RC4/AES-128/AES-256) proptest = [] fuzzing = [] # Enable cfg(fuzzing) for fuzz harnesses shape-db = [] # Enable glyph shape database (Level 4 encoding fallback) cjk = [] # Enable CJK text extraction via predefined CMap registry (~1.2 MB binary size increase) +quick-xml = ["dep:quick-xml"] # Enable quick-xml for conformance detection (Phase 1.4) [dev-dependencies] chrono = "0.4" diff --git a/crates/pdftract-core/src/layout/reading_order.rs b/crates/pdftract-core/src/layout/reading_order.rs index c03fb73..1fd3f9a 100644 --- a/crates/pdftract-core/src/layout/reading_order.rs +++ b/crates/pdftract-core/src/layout/reading_order.rs @@ -17,7 +17,7 @@ //!
