# PyLaia - PELLET Casimir Marius

This model performs Handwritten Text Recognition in French. Trained following [Teklia's tutorial](https://doc.arkindex.org/tutorial/). 

## Model description

The model has been trained using the PyLaia library on the [PELLET Casimir Marius - Line level](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Teklia/PELLET-Casimir-Marius-line) dataset.

Training images were resized with a fixed height of 128 pixels, keeping the original aspect ratio.
