Towards Hierarchical Structure Understanding of Newspaper Images

William Mocaër, Solène Tarride, Thomas Constum +7

Understanding newspaper images remains a challenging task due to their complex, nested hierarchical structures and dense, heterogeneous layouts. In this paper, we explore two compl…

Scaling State-Space Models from Lines to Paragraphs: An Ablation of Mamba-based OCR

Merveilles Agbeti-Messan, Pierrick Tranouez, Stéphane Nicolas +2

End-to-end OCR increasingly relies on autoregressive sequence models, where the quadratic cost of Transformer attention limits efficient transcription of long, paragraph-level text…

A Benchmark of State-Space Models vs. Transformers and BiLSTM-based Models for Historical Newspaper OCR

Merveilles Agbeti-Messan, Pierrick Tranouez, Stéphane Nicolas +2

End-to-end OCR for historical newspapers remains challenging, as models must handle long text sequences, degraded print quality, and complex layouts. While Transformer-based recogn…

Few-shot Writer Adaptation via Multimodal In-Context Learning

Tom Simon, Stephane Nicolas, Pierrick Tranouez +2

While state-of-the-art Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR) models perform well on standard benchmarks, they frequently struggle with writers exhibiting highly specific styles that a…

Classifying the Unknown: In-Context Learning for Open-Vocabulary Text and Symbol Recognition

Tom Simon, William Mocaer, Pierrick Tranouez +2

We introduce Rosetta, a multimodal model that leverages Multimodal In-Context Learning (MICL) to classify sequences of novel script patterns in documents by leveraging minimal exam…

Recurrence-free unconstrained handwritten text recognition using gated fully convolutional network

Denis Coquenet, Clément Chatelain, Thierry Paquet

Unconstrained handwritten text recognition is a major step in most document analysis tasks. This is generally processed by deep recurrent neural networks and more specifically with…
