Towards Hierarchical Structure Understanding of Newspaper Images
William Mocaër, Solène Tarride, Thomas Constum +7
The paper proposes two methods for parsing the complex hierarchical layout of newspaper images: a modular bottom‑up pipeline using existing models (YOLO, LayoutReader) and a new en…
METATR: A Multilingual, Evolving Benchmark for Automatic Text Recognition
Mélodie Boillet, Solène Tarride, Christopher Kermorvant
Benchmarks that reflect the diversity and complexity of real-world documents are essential for accurately evaluating Automatic Text Recognition (ATR) systems, especially Vision-Lar…
Normalized vs Diplomatic Annotation: A Case Study of Automatic Information Extraction from Handwritten Uruguayan Birth Certificates
Natalia Bottaioli, Solène Tarride, Jérémy Anger +8
This study evaluates the recently proposed Document Attention Network (DAN) for extracting key-value information from Uruguayan birth certificates, handwritten in Spanish. We inves…
The Socface Project: Large-Scale Collection, Processing, and Analysis of a Century of French Censuses
Mélodie Boillet, Solène Tarride, Manon Blanco +5
This paper presents a complete processing workflow for extracting information from French census lists from 1836 to 1936. These lists contain information about individuals living i…
Revisiting N-Gram Models: Their Impact in Modern Neural Networks for Handwritten Text Recognition
Solène Tarride, Christopher Kermorvant
In recent advances in automatic text recognition (ATR), deep neural networks have demonstrated the ability to implicitly capture language statistics, potentially reducing the need…
Improving Automatic Text Recognition with Language Models in the PyLaia Open-Source Library
Solène Tarride, Yoann Schneider, Marie Generali-Lince +3
