PyLaia - NorHand v3

This model performs Handwritten Text Recognition in Norwegian. It was developed during the HUGIN-MUNIN project.

Model description

The model has been trained using the PyLaia library on the NorHand v3 dataset.

Training images were resized with a fixed height of 128 pixels, keeping the original aspect ratio.
