Multi-Modal Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with Text and Image Processing
Modern research analysis with artificial intelligence requires significant time to obtain useful knowledge from academic papers, research documents, and PDFs. This AI-powered research assistant streamlines text extraction while performing image assessment and generating intelligent document summaries using natural language processing (NLP), vector search, and large language models (LLMs). The research tool integrates GPT-4o from OpenAI with LangChain ChromaDB and Hugging Face embeddings to develop an automated academic paper analysis system that supports semantic search while delivering AI-generated summaries and image-processing content explanations.
Project Outcomes
Requirements:
- →Python 3.8+ with Google Colab or Jupyter Notebook for execution.
- →The text and image analysis with GPT-4o requires an OpenAI API Key as a prerequisite for operation.
- →The program relies on the Tesseract OCR & Poppler-utils combination to extract text content from PDF files alongside image documents.
- →LangChain, ChromaDB & Hugging Face Embeddings for semantic search and AI-powered retrieval.
- →The program requires PyMuPDF together with pdfplumber and pdf2image to extract text and images along with tables from PDF documents.
- →Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib & IPython Display for data processing and visualization.
Project Description
Research documents become directly and efficiently analyzed and summarized through a research assistant that runs on AI infrastructure which utilizes natural language processing (NLP) optical character recognition (OCR) and vector search methods. Research papers go through the system which extracts text images and tables then performs semantic searches through Hugging Face embeddings and ChromaDB followed by generating AI summaries of text and image explanations with GPT-4o. Users can submit research-related inquiries through the system which delivers specific relevant content sections thus cutting down the time needed for manual reading. This project delivers increased academic research speed because it incorporates PyMuPDF, pdfplumber, Tesseract OCR, OpenCV, LangChain, and OpenAI to optimize document processing along with AI retrieval capabilities. This allows students along with researchers and analysts to obtain automated content retrieval and available access to literature reviews, academic insights and research paper analysis.
