  One of the major prerequisites for any deep learning approach is the
availability of large-scale training data. When dealing with scanned document
images in real world scenarios, the principal information of its content is
stored in the layout itself. In this work, we have proposed an automated deep
generative model using Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to generate synthetic data
with highly variable and plausible document layouts that can be used to train
document interpretation systems, in this case, specially in digital mailroom
applications. It is also the first graph-based approach for document layout
generation task experimented on administrative document images, in this case,
invoices.
