A method of categorizing text entries on a document can include determining, for each of a plurality of text bounding boxes in the document, respective text, respective coordinates, and respective input embeddings. The method may further include defining a graph of the plurality of bounding boxes, the graph comprising a plurality of connections among the plurality of bounding boxes, each connection comprising a first and second bounding box and zero or more respective intermediate bounding boxes. The method may further include determining a respective attention value for each connection according to a quantity of intermediate bounding boxes in the connection and, based on a the respective attention values and a transformer-based machine learning model applied to the respective input embeddings and respective coordinates, determining output embeddings for each bounding box and, based on the respective output embeddings, generating a bounding box label for each bounding box.
