commit 0a52cff8a72ea2e900e5d7d6fcc7a43768b81fbe Author: Alexander Whitestone Date: Mon Apr 13 21:20:42 2026 -0400 Fix #493: Add multimodal meaning kernel extraction pipeline - Added extract_meaning_kernels.py for processing PDF diagrams - Extracts text using OCR (Tesseract) when available - Analyzes diagram structure (type, dimensions, orientation) - Generates structured meaning kernels with metadata - Outputs JSON (machine-readable) and Markdown (human-readable) - Includes test pipeline and documentation - Supports single files and batch processing Pipeline components: - DiagramProcessor: Main processing engine - MeaningKernel: Structured kernel representation - PDF to image conversion - OCR text extraction - Structure analysis - Kernel generation with confidence scoring Acceptance criteria met: ✓ Processes academic PDF diagrams ✓ Extracts structured text meaning kernels ✓ Generates machine-readable JSON output ✓ Includes human-readable reports ✓ Supports batch processing ✓ Provides confidence scoring diff --git a/scripts/multimodal/README.md b/scripts/multimodal/README.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ecfc2db3 --- /dev/null +++ b/scripts/multimodal/README.md @@ -0,0 +1,128 @@ +# Multimodal Meaning Kernel Extraction Pipeline + +Extracts structured meaning kernels from academic PDF diagrams into text format. + +## Issue #493 + +[Multimodal] Extract Meaning Kernels from Research Diagrams + +## Overview + +This pipeline processes academic PDF diagrams and images to extract structured "meaning kernels" -
