使用 Mistral OCR 和 Milvus 理解文档
本教程演示如何使用以下工具构建文档理解系统:
Mistral OCR
功能强大的光学字符识别服务
- 处理 PDF、图像和其他文档格式
- 保留文档结构和格式
- 处理多页文档
- 识别表格、列表和其他复杂元素
Mistral Embeddings
- 将文本转换为数字表示:
- 将文本转换为 1024 维向量
- 捕捉概念之间的语义关系
- 实现基于意义的相似性匹配
- 为语义搜索奠定基础
Milvus 向量数据库
用于向量相似性搜索的专用数据库:
- 开源
- 执行高效的向量搜索
- 可扩展至大型文档 Collections
- 支持混合搜索(向量相似性 + 元数据过滤)
- 针对人工智能应用进行了优化
本教程结束时,您将拥有一个可以实现以下功能的系统
- 通过 URL 处理文档(PDF/图片
- 使用 OCR 提取文本
- 将文本和向量嵌入存储在 Milvus 中
- 在文档 Collections 中执行语义搜索
设置和依赖
首先,让我们安装所需的软件包:
$ pip install mistralai pymilvus python-dotenv
环境设置
你需要
- 一个 Mistral API 密钥(从 https://console.mistral.ai/ 获取一个)
- 通过Docker或Zilliz Cloud在本地运行 Milvus
让我们来设置环境:
import json
import os
import re
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from mistralai import Mistral
from pymilvus import CollectionSchema, DataType, FieldSchema, MilvusClient
from pymilvus.client.types import LoadState
# Load environment variables from .env file
load_dotenv()
# Initialize clients
api_key = os.getenv("MISTRAL_API_KEY")
if not api_key:
api_key = input("Enter your Mistral API key: ")
os.environ["MISTRAL_API_KEY"] = api_key
client = Mistral(api_key=api_key)
# Define models
text_model = "mistral-small-latest" # For chat interactions
ocr_model = "mistral-ocr-latest" # For OCR processing
embedding_model = "mistral-embed" # For generating embeddings
# Connect to Milvus (default: localhost)
milvus_uri = os.getenv("MILVUS_URI", "http://localhost:19530")
milvus_client = MilvusClient(uri=milvus_uri)
# Milvus collection name
COLLECTION_NAME = "document_ocr"
print(f"Connected to Mistral API and Milvus at {milvus_uri}")
Connected to Mistral API and Milvus at http://localhost:19530
设置 Milvus Collections
现在,让我们创建一个 Milvus Collection 来存储我们的文档数据。Collections 将包含以下字段:
id:主键(自动生成)url:文档的源 URLpage_num:文件的页码content:提取的文本内容embedding:内容的向量表示(1024 维)
def setup_milvus_collection():
"""Create Milvus collection if it doesn't exist."""
# Check if collection already exists
if milvus_client.has_collection(COLLECTION_NAME):
print(f"Collection '{COLLECTION_NAME}' already exists.")
return
# Define collection schema
fields = [
FieldSchema(name="id", dtype=DataType.INT64, is_primary=True, auto_id=True),
FieldSchema(name="url", dtype=DataType.VARCHAR, max_length=500),
FieldSchema(name="page_num", dtype=DataType.INT64),
FieldSchema(name="content", dtype=DataType.VARCHAR, max_length=65535),
FieldSchema(name="embedding", dtype=DataType.FLOAT_VECTOR, dim=1024),
]
schema = CollectionSchema(fields=fields)
# Create collection
milvus_client.create_collection(
collection_name=COLLECTION_NAME,
schema=schema,
)
# Create index for vector search
index_params = milvus_client.prepare_index_params()
index_params.add_index(
field_name="embedding",
index_type="IVF_FLAT", # Index type for approximate nearest neighbor search
metric_type="COSINE", # Similarity metric
params={"nlist": 128}, # Number of clusters
)
milvus_client.create_index(
collection_name=COLLECTION_NAME, index_params=index_params
)
print(f"Collection '{COLLECTION_NAME}' created successfully with index.")
setup_milvus_collection()
Collection 'document_ocr' already exists.
核心功能
让我们来实现文档理解系统的核心功能:
# Generate embeddings using Mistral
def generate_embedding(text):
"""Generate embedding for text using Mistral embedding model."""
response = client.embeddings.create(model=embedding_model, inputs=[text])
return response.data[0].embedding
# Store OCR results in Milvus
def store_ocr_in_milvus(url, ocr_result):
"""Process OCR results and store in Milvus."""
# Extract pages from OCR result
pages = []
current_page = ""
page_num = 0
for line in ocr_result.split("\n"):
if line.startswith("### Page "):
if current_page:
pages.append((page_num, current_page.strip()))
page_num = int(line.replace("### Page ", ""))
current_page = ""
else:
current_page += line + "\n"
# Add the last page
if current_page:
pages.append((page_num, current_page.strip()))
# Prepare data for Milvus
entities = []
for page_num, content in pages:
# Generate embedding for the page content
embedding = generate_embedding(content)
# Create entity
entity = {
"url": url,
"page_num": page_num,
"content": content,
"embedding": embedding,
}
entities.append(entity)
# Insert into Milvus
if entities:
milvus_client.insert(collection_name=COLLECTION_NAME, data=entities)
print(f"Stored {len(entities)} pages from {url} in Milvus.")
return len(entities)
# Define OCR function
def perform_ocr(url):
"""Apply OCR to a URL (PDF or image)."""
try:
# Try PDF OCR first
response = client.ocr.process(
model=ocr_model, document={"type": "document_url", "document_url": url}
)
except Exception:
try:
# If PDF OCR fails, try Image OCR
response = client.ocr.process(
model=ocr_model, document={"type": "image_url", "image_url": url}
)
except Exception as e:
return str(e) # Return error message
# Format the OCR results
ocr_result = "\n\n".join(
[
f"### Page {i + 1}\n{response.pages[i].markdown}"
for i in range(len(response.pages))
]
)
# Store in Milvus
store_ocr_in_milvus(url, ocr_result)
return ocr_result
# Process URLs
def process_document(url):
"""Process a document URL and return its contents."""
print(f"Processing document: {url}")
ocr_result = perform_ocr(url)
return ocr_result
搜索功能
现在,让我们来实现搜索功能,以检索相关文档内容:
def search_documents(query, limit=5):
"""Search Milvus for similar content to the query."""
# Check if collection exists
if not milvus_client.has_collection(COLLECTION_NAME):
return "No documents have been processed yet."
# Load collection if not already loaded
if milvus_client.get_load_state(COLLECTION_NAME) != LoadState.Loaded:
milvus_client.load_collection(COLLECTION_NAME)
print(f"Searching for: {query}")
query_embedding = generate_embedding(query)
search_params = {"metric_type": "COSINE", "params": {"nprobe": 10}}
search_results = milvus_client.search(
collection_name=COLLECTION_NAME,
data=[query_embedding],
anns_field="embedding",
search_params=search_params,
limit=limit,
output_fields=["url", "page_num", "content"],
)
results = []
if not search_results or not search_results[0]:
return "No matching documents found."
for i, hit in enumerate(search_results[0]):
url = hit["entity"]["url"]
page_num = hit["entity"]["page_num"]
content = hit["entity"]["content"]
score = hit["distance"]
results.append(
{
"rank": i + 1,
"score": score,
"url": url,
"page": page_num,
"content": content[:500] + "..." if len(content) > 500 else content,
}
)
return results
# Get statistics about stored documents
def get_document_stats():
"""Get statistics about documents stored in Milvus."""
if not milvus_client.has_collection(COLLECTION_NAME):
return "No documents have been processed yet."
# Get collection stats
stats = milvus_client.get_collection_stats(COLLECTION_NAME)
row_count = stats["row_count"]
# Get unique URLs
results = milvus_client.query(
collection_name=COLLECTION_NAME, filter="", output_fields=["url"], limit=10000
)
unique_urls = set()
for result in results:
unique_urls.add(result["url"])
return {
"total_pages": row_count,
"unique_documents": len(unique_urls),
"documents": list(unique_urls),
}
演示:处理文档
让我们处理一些示例文档。您可以用自己的文档替换这些 URL。
# Example PDF URL (Mistral AI paper)
pdf_url = "https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.06825.pdf"
# Process the document
ocr_result = process_document(pdf_url)
# Display a preview of the OCR result
print("\nOCR Result Preview:")
print("====================")
print(ocr_result[:1000] + "...")
Processing document: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.06825.pdf
Stored 9 pages from https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.06825.pdf in Milvus.

#### Abstract
We introduce Mistral 7B, a 7-billion-parameter language model engineered for superior performance and efficiency. Mistral 7B outperforms the best open 13B model (Llama 2) across all evaluated benchmarks, and the best released 34B model (Llama 1) in reasoning, mathematics, and code generation. Our model leverages grouped-query attention (GQA) for faster inference, coupled with sliding window attention (SWA) to effectively handle sequences of arbitrary length with a reduced inference cost. We also provide a model fine-tuned to follow instructions, Mistral 7B - Instruct, that surpasses Llama 2 13B - chat mod...

For example, to kill process with PID 1234, you would run the command `kill 1234`. It's important to note that killing a process can have unintended consequences, so it's generally a good idea to only kill processes that you are certain you want to terminate.
