| Challenge: | PTLMs have shown remarkable success in multiple information extraction tasks . however, their performance in real-world scenarios falls short of expectations . |
| Approach: | They propose to use an entity-centric dataset to evaluate PTLMs' performance . they find that inadequate annotations in benchmark datasets lead to spurious correlations . |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset disentangles the falsely-coupled segment and entity annotations that arises from the block-level annotation of FUNSD. |

| Challenge: | Existing models of layout reading order do not convey the complete reading order information in the layout. |
| Approach: | They propose to model layout reading order as ordering relations over layout elements . they propose a reading-order-relation-enhancing pipeline to improve model performance . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms existing models on a visual-rich document dataset and on eight cross-domain VrD-IE/QA tasks without targeted optimization. |
