Summary
DharmaOCR, an open-source specialized Small Language Model (SLM) for OCR, has been released on Hugging Face, including models, datasets, and a detailed paper. This 3B parameter model, fine-tuned with SFT + DPO, was benchmarked against leading commercial LLMs like GPT-5.4 and Gemini 3.1 Pro, as well as other open-source OCR solutions. The project aims to provide a cost-effective and high-performance alternative for document processing.
