PDF Segmentation

PDF Segmentation is a utility for parsing PDFs into structured page-range chunks using LLMs, designed for downstream processing such as image conversion, question extraction, derivations, and document analysis.

It is intended to sit at the front of a PDF processing pipeline, handling segmentation and orchestration.

Features

• LLM-driven PDF segmentation into page ranges
• Schema-validated, structured outputs
• PDF → image conversion utilities
• PDF page and range splitting
• Multimodal (PDF + image) LLM support

---

Core Components

Segmentation Graph

from graph.graph import (
    graph as PDFSegmentation,
    Section,
    ListOutput,
    State as SegmentationInput,
)

• PDFSegmentation – main graph entry point
• Section – base class for output units
• ListOutput[T] – typed LLM output container
• State – input configuration for segmentation

The graph:

• Accepts a PDF (path or bytes)
• Invokes an LLM
• Returns schema-validated segmentation results

PDF Utilities

PDF → Images

from pdf_image_converter import PDFImageConverter

PDF Page Splitting

from pdf_seperator import PDFSeperator

Multimodal LLM Invocation

from pdf_llm import PDFMultiModalLLM

---

Example

Define an Output Schema

from typing import Literal, List
from pydantic import BaseModel
from graph.graph import Section, ListOutput

class MySection(Section, BaseModel):
    title: str
    description: str
    section_type: Literal["derivation", "question"]

class MySections(ListOutput[MySection]):
    items: List[MySection]

---

Run Segmentation

from pathlib import Path
from graph.graph import graph, State

result = graph.invoke(
    State(
        pdf=Path("data/Lecture_02_03.pdf"),
        prompt="Extract the content into these chunks",
        output_schema=MySections,
    )
)

---

Input State

class State(BaseModel, Generic[T]):
    pdf: str | Path
    prompt: str
    pdf_bytes: bytes | None = None

    output_schema: Type[ListOutput[T]] = Field(exclude=True)
    raw_output: List[T] = []
    parsed: list[ParsedUnit[T]] = Field(default_factory=list)

    @field_serializer("pdf_bytes")
    def serialize_pdf_bytes(self, value: bytes):
        return base64.b64encode(value).decode("ascii")

Notes

• Provide either pdf or pdf_bytes
• output_schema controls the LLM output structure
• parsed contains validated segmentation results

---

Typical Pipeline

PDF → LLM Segmentation → Page Ranges
   → PDF Splitter
   → PDF → Image Conversion
   → Downstream Processing

Common use cases include lecture parsing, educational content generation, and document analysis.
