Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for reading order detection are too laborious to annotate large datasets. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a large-scale dataset to annotate reading order information for document images . they use XML metadata to capture the reading order of WORD documents . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model performs almost perfectly in reading order detection and improves both open-source and commercial OCR engines in ordering text lines in their results. |
