DIVA-HisDB
The database consists of 150 annotated pages of three different medieval manuscripts with challenging layouts. Furthermore, we provide a layout analysis ground-truth which has been iterated on, reviewed, and refined by an expert in medieval studies.
Benchmarks archive 2025-07-28
All 2 leaderboards whose dataset resolves to this page shown (sort by any header). "First row" is the archive's own first row at snapshot, in the archive's row order; nothing here re-ranks and metric direction is not asserted.

Papers archive 2025-07-28
4 shown of 4 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 15. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
