# LADaS: Layout Analysis Dataset with Segmonto
## Dataset Details
LADaS, created by the [ALMANaCH team-project](https://almanach.inria.fr/index-en.html) at Inria,
continued in partnership with other researchers, is a multidocuments diachronic layout analysis
dataset. This dataset includes:
- Monographs from the Bibliothèque Nationale de France (17th century - today);
- PhD Thesis, in various fields (not only STEM, 20th-21st century);
- Selling Catalogs (for manuscripts and art pieces), in various fields (18th-20th century);
- Noisy digitization (with fingers for example, 20th-21st century);
- Academic papers (mostly Humanities and Social Sciences) (19th-21st century);
- Magazines about technologies and video games, from 1920s to 2010;
- Misc stuff found here and there.
The data are in YoloV8 bbox format (center_x center_y width height).
The script in document is mostly Latin script, and language is mostly French with some representation of the main
western academic languages.
### Annotations
Label Annotation have been conducted using the [SegmOnto](https://segmonto.github.io/) vocabulary.
An annotation guide is available [here](https://github.com/DEFI-COLaF/LADaS/blob/25d4cf3f850cf79d18af572153cfbc73deff4160/AnnotationGuide.md).
### Dataset Description
- **Curated by:** Thibault Clérice & Juliette Janès
- **Funded by:** Défi COLaF, Inria
- **License:** CC-BY
## Uses
### Direct Use
- Layout Analysis
## Dataset Structure
You'll find 8 fields in the parquet:
- `image_path` is a string identifier for the file
- `year` is the year of production. It can be null.
- `dating-certainty` is used to specify when a date is automatically provided based on a date range and a century range. They will usually be centuries, such as 1600.
- `set` represents the subset of the data, there are a few, including `theatre` for plays, `monographies` for monographs, `theses` for PhD thesis, etc.
- `image` contains the image
- `width` and `height` are quite clear...
- `objects` is a dictionary with entries:
- `bbox` which represents a series of bbox using the COCO / YOLO format (tuple of relative center_x, center_y, width, height)
- `category` which contains a plain text representation of the annotation class of each bbox. There are 41 classes, further described on the annotation guide.
- `objects` can contain an empty `bbox` list and an empty `category` list: it means the image does not contain any objects.
### Annotations
#### Annotation process
The annotation process is described in the [dataset paper](https://inria.hal.science/hal-04513725).
