LineTR: Unified Text Line Segmentation for Challenging Palm Leaf Manuscripts

Vaibhav Agrawal, Niharika Vadlamudi, Amal Joseph, Muhammad Waseem, Sreenya Chitluri, Ravi Kiran Sarvadevabhatla
In International Conference on Pattern Recognition (ICPR) , 2024

Re-imagining text line segmentation in challenging documents. Instead of a pixel-based segmentation paradigm, LineTR uses a parametric representation of a line, leveraging its inductive priors. Introduces a novel context-adaptive patching mechanism for zero-shot generalizability.
