# HOME-Alcar handwritten text recognition
This model performs Handwritten Text Recognition in Latin on medieval documents.
## Model description
The model was trained using the PyLaia library on two medieval datasets:
* [Himanis](https://demo.arkindex.org/browse/5000e248-a624-4df1-8679-1b34679817ef?top_level=true&folder=true) (French)
* [HOME Alcar](https://demo.arkindex.org/browse/46b9b1f4-baeb-4342-a501-e2f15472a276?top_level=true&folder=true) (Latin)
For training, text-lines were resized with a fixed height of 128 pixels, keeping the original aspect ratio.
An external 6-gram character language model can be used to improve recognition. The language model is trained on the text from the HOME Alcar training set.
## Evaluation results
The model achieves the following results:
| set | Language model | CER (%) | WER (%) | N lines |
|:------|:---------------|:----------:|:-------:|----------:|
| test | no | 8.35 | 26.15 | 6932 |
| test | yes | 7.85 | 23.20 | 6932 |
