What this type of data looks like
Indicator calibration data primarily originates from internal business indicator manuals, regulatory reporting standard documents, and financial statement preparation rule documents. Update cycles are mostly quarterly or annual, with adjustments made alongside changes to regulatory policies or internal business iterations. Most documents use structured tables paired with explanatory text. They include fields such as indicator code, indicator name, calibration definition, statistical cycle, unit of measurement, and applicable scenario. Some indicator calibrations have nested associations: the calibration definition of indicator A references the description of indicator B.
Constraints for Document Parsing and Chunking
The nested association feature of indicator calibrations requires chunks to retain sufficient context. This prevents loss of cross-indicator definition logic after splitting. The binding relationship between structured tables and explanatory text requires merging table rows with corresponding annotations during parsing. This preserves complete calibration descriptions. The relatively fixed update cycle that adjusts alongside regulatory policies requires configuring timeout thresholds matched to document scale. This avoids parsing interruptions for large manuals. Multifield metadata must be retained alongside chunks. This ensures full display of indicator applicable scope and statistical rules during in-app retrieval.
Configuration Settings
| Configuration Item | Recommended Values | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
chunk_size | 800–1200 characters | Indicator calibration documents contain nested definitions and associated descriptions. This length balances chunk granularity and context completeness |
chunk_overlap | 150–200 characters | Retains associated content between adjacent chunks, preventing cross-indicator calibration logic from breaking after splitting |
parse_table_mode | structured_merge | Merges table headers, row data, and corresponding explanatory text to preserve complete associated relationships of indicator calibrations |
ocr_language | chi_sim+eng | Adapts to most regulatory standards and business indicator documents with Chinese-English translations, reducing OCR recognition error rates |
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS | 300 seconds | Matches the parsing time required for large indicator calibration manuals, preventing parsing interruptions due to timeouts |
enable_table_ocr | true | Supports recognition of indicator calibration documents in scanned or image formats, extracting structured table content |
The parameter values provided on this page are common recommended starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material format, data volume, and business rules. Specific issues require individual analysis, and it is recommended to test on your own samples before finalizing settings.
Three Common Configuration Errors
- Uploading an image-format indicator calibration document results in empty search results. Cause: The
enable_table_ocrconfiguration is not enabled, so table and text content in scanned documents cannot be recognized. - When importing an indicator calibration Excel file, associated indicator content across worksheets is not linked. Cause: The parsing switch for cross-worksheet content merging is not enabled, and only the content of a single worksheet is parsed.
- OCR garbled characters appear when parsing Chinese indicator calibration documents. Cause: The
ocr_languageconfiguration is not set to a language pack that includes Chinese, leading to incorrect recognition of Chinese text.
How to Verify Correct Configuration
- Upload a single indicator calibration PDF document, view the parsed chunk content, and confirm that table headers and corresponding row data are not split.
- Upload a scanned indicator manual image, check that OCR-recognized text has no garbled characters and that table content is complete.
- Import an indicator calibration Excel file with multiple worksheets, verify that associated indicator content across worksheets is correctly merged.
- Initiate an indicator search that includes nested calibrations, confirm that recalled chunk content contains complete associated definition descriptions.
