PyLaia - CATMuS/medieval

This model performs Handwritten Text Recognition in Latin/Romance on historical documents.

Model description

The model was trained using the PyLaia library on the CATMuS/medieval dataset.

Training images were resized with a fixed height of {dimension} pixels, keeping the original aspect ratio. Vertical lines are discarded.

An external 6-gram character language model can be used to improve recognition. The language model is trained on the text from the CATMuS/medieval training set.
