Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in textual understanding and tabular reasoning tasks, but their performance on hybrid text containing both types of data remains unexplored. This paper addresses this gap by developing an Automated Information Extraction framework (AIE) to enable LLMs to process Hybrid Long Documents (HLDs). The AIE is applied to analyze four aspects of information extraction from HLDs: selecting and summarizing useful parts, serializing tables for understanding, adapting to complex scenarios with naive AIE, and enhancing LLMs through prompt engineering. Experimental findings highlight the importance of these approaches in processing HLDs. To support future research, a new dataset, Financial Reports Numerical Extraction (FINE), is proposed, along with publicly available code.

Imagine trying to understand a long document that has both text and tables. This paper looks at how Large Language Models can handle this type of information. They developed a special tool called Automated Information Extraction to help these models process the documents. The researchers tested their approach in four different ways, finding out what works best for selecting important parts, converting tables into text, and more. They also created a new dataset with examples of financial reports that have both text and tables, so other researchers can use it too.
