# PyLaia - Fraktur
This model performs Handwritten Text Recognition in Austrian German.
## Model description
The model has been trained using the PyLaia library on the [NewsEye / READ OCR training dataset from Austrian Newspapers (19th C.)](https://zenodo.org/record/3387369) dataset.
Training images were resized with a fixed height of 128 pixels, keeping the original aspect ratio.
| split | N lines |
| ----- | ------: |
| train | 52,834 |
| val | 4,667 |
An external 6-gram character language model can be used to improve recognition. The language model is trained on the text from the NewsEye training set.
## Evaluation results
The model achieves the following results:
| set | Language model | CER (%) | WER (%) | N lines |
|:------|:---------------|:----------:|:-------:|----------:|
| val | no | 1.82 | 7.77 | 4,667 |
| val | yes | 1.77 | 7.01 | 4,667 |
