# Dataset Card for FinTabNet_OTSL
## Dataset Description
- **Homepage:** https://ds4sd.github.io
- **Paper:** https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.03393
### Dataset Summary
This dataset is a conversion of the original [FinTabNet](https://developer.ibm.com/exchanges/data/all/fintabnet/) into the OTSL format presented in our paper "Optimized Table Tokenization for Table Structure Recognition". The dataset includes the original annotations amongst new additions.
### Dataset Structure
* cells: origunal dataset cell groundtruth (content).
* otsl: new reduced table structure token format
* html: original dataset groundtruth HTML (structure).
* html_restored: generated HTML from OTSL.
* cols: grid column length.
* rows: grid row length.
* image: PIL image
### OTSL Vocabulary:
**OTSL**: new reduced table structure token format
More information on the OTSL table structure format and its concepts can be read from our paper.
Format of this dataset extends work presented in a paper, and introduces slight modifications:
* "fcel" - cell that has content in it
* "ecel" - cell that is empty
* "lcel" - left-looking cell (to handle horizontally merged cells)
* "ucel" - up-looking cell (to handle vertically merged cells)
* "xcel" - 2d span cells, in this dataset - covers entire area of a merged cell
* "nl" - new line token
### Data Splits
The dataset provides three splits
- `train`
- `val`
- `test`
## Additional Information
