-# The MERIT Dataset :school_satchel::page_with_curl::trophy:
 The MERIT Dataset is a multimodal dataset (image + text + layout) designed for training and benchmarking Large Language Models (LLMs) on Visually Rich Document Understanding (VrDU) tasks. It is a fully labeled synthetic dataset and you can access the generation pipeline on [GitHub](https://github.com/nachoDRT/MERIT-Dataset).
-## Introduction :information_source:
 AI faces some dynamic and technical issues that push end-users to create and gather their own data. In addition, multimodal LLMs are gaining more and more attention, but datasets to train them might be improved to be more complex, more flexible, and easier to gather/generate.
 In this research project, we identify school transcripts of records as a suitable niche to generate a synthetic challenging multimodal dataset (image + text + layout) for Token Classification or Sequence Generation.

-## Benchmark :muscle:
 We train the LayoutLM family models on Token Classification to demonstrate the suitability of our dataset. The MERIT Dataset poses a challenging scenario with more than 400 labels.
