GLOBALISE Laypa Region Model - August 2023
This is a Laypa region detection model that was created to detect and identify regions (such as page number, heading, paragraph, and marginalia) on the scans of the GLOBALISE VOC corpus. It was trained on Ground Truth that is also available in this Dataverse (GLOBALISE Ground Truth for Handwritten Text and Layout Recognition) and applied using the Loghi Handwritten Text Recognition tools to generate VOC transcriptions v2 - GLOBALISE. The model's hyperparameters are available in the file config.yaml.
