Text column and row line intersection detection from Finnish death records from the 1930s

The model is trained to find the intersection points of table column and cell lines from digitized death record documents from the 1930s. The model has been trained using yolov8x by Ultralytics as the base model.

Intended uses & limitations

The model has been trained to detect intersection points from specific kinds of tables, and probably generalizes badly to other, very different table types.

Training data

Training dataset consisted of 244 digitized and annotated documents containing tables, while validation dataset contained 31 annotated document images.

Training procedure

This model was trained using 2 NVIDIA RTX A6000 GPUs with the following hyperparameters:

image size: 2560
train batch size: 4
epochs: 100
patience: 10 epochs
optimizer: SGD
workers: 4
learning rate (lr0): 0.01

Default settings were used for other training hyperparameters (find more information here).

Model training was performed using the following code:

python

from ultralytics import YOLO

# Use pretrained Yolo segmentation model
model = YOLO('yolov8x.pt')                                                                                                               

# Path to .yaml file where data location and object classes are defined
yaml_path = 'intersections.yaml'

# Start model training with the defined parameters
model.train(data=yaml_path, name='model_name', epochs=100, imgsz=640, workers=4, optimizer='SGD',
            lr0=0.01, seed=42, val=True, cos_lr=False, patience=10, batch=32, device='0,1')

Evaluation results

Evaluation results using the validation dataset are listed below:

Class	Images	Class instances	Box precision	Box recall	Box mAP50	Box mAP50-95
Intersection	31	6769	0.927	0.946	0.939	0.426

Inference

If the model file yolo_kuolleet_09022024.pt is downloaded to a folder \models\yolo_kuolleet_09022024.pt and the input image path is \data\image.jpg, inference can be perfomed using the following code:
