dc.description.abstractIn the realm of document engineering and Natural Language Processing (NLP), the integration of digitally born catalogs into product design processes presents a novel avenue for enhancing information extraction and interoperability. This paper introduces CatalogBank, a dataset developed to bridge the gap between textual descriptions and other data modalities related to engineering design catalogs. We utilized existing information extraction methodologies to extract product information from PDF-based catalogs to use in downstream tasks to generate a baseline metric. Our approach not only supports the potential automation of design workflows but also overcomes the limitations of manual data entry and non-standard metadata structures that have historically impeded the seamless integration of textual and other data modalities. Through the use of DocumentLabeler, an open-source annotation tool adapted for our dataset, we demonstrated the potential of CatalogBank in supporting diverse document-based tasks such as layout analysis and knowledge extraction. Our findings suggest that CatalogBank can contribute to document engineering and NLP by providing a robust dataset for training models capable of understanding and processing complex document formats with relatively less effort using the semi-automated annotation tool DocumentLabeler.
