From 597f536b19ce6ac5ae3b3dce2bc3aefe178b6465 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: jedarden Date: Sun, 24 May 2026 01:56:34 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] feat(pdftract-xzfkt): implement caption block classifier MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Add Phase 4 caption classification for detecting figure captions. Implements classify_caption() which identifies blocks as captions when: - Small font size (median < page body median) - Follows Figure block within 2 line heights - Same column as Figure Module: crates/pdftract-core/src/layout/caption.rs Acceptance criteria: - Block immediately below Figure, small font, same column → kind: Caption - Block 5 lines below Figure → NOT Caption (gap too large) - Block with body-size font below Figure → NOT Caption (font not smaller) - Block in different column from Figure → NOT Caption Tests: 9/9 passed covering all acceptance criteria plus edge cases.
