Yolo26s Ottoman Printed Line

Model Overview

• Model Type: Line Detection
• Architecture: YOLO26s-seg (Ultralytics)
• Language: Ottoman Turkish
• Font/Style: Printed Naskh
• Task: Segmenting and detecting individual text lines within predefined text regions.

Intended Use

• Primary Use Case: Detecting text lines inside pre-cropped text regions of Ottoman Turkish printed works in the Naskh font.
• Recommendations: For optimal pipeline performance, it is highly recommended to use a separate page-level region detection model first to extract text blocks, and then pass those cropped regions to this line detection model.
• Limitations: While the model might work on full-page images, it was exclusively trained on region-level crops. Full-page inference may yield lower accuracy or miss structural nuances but it works.

Dataset Information

The dataset was aggregated from 9 different works (New Testament (vol 2, 1857 edition), Eşar-ı Ziya, Kozmoğrafya, yahut, İlm-i ahval-i sema, Mecmua-i Fünûn-i Askeriyye, Medhal-i Fıkh, Muahedat Mecmuası, Mir'at-ı Alem, Muhtasar Tarih-i Umumi, and Solakzade Tarihi.).

• Total Pages and Regions: 286 pages containing 1,789 cropped text regions
• Total Lines: 8,115 lines
• Train Split: 1524 regions (6,890 line instances)
• Validation Split: 275 regions (1,225 line instances)

Usage Example

pip install ultralytics       # You should write this as !pip install ultralytics if you use Google Colab.

from ultralytics import YOLO

# Load the trained model
model = YOLO('path/to/yolo26s_line_ota-printed-naskh.pt')

# Run inference on a cropped text region
results = model.predict(source='path/to/region_crop.jpg', imgsz=1280, conf=0.5)

# View results
for r in results:
    r.show()  # Display image with predicted line masks
