We introduce a new\nevaluation tool that is both available as a standalone Java application and as\na RESTful web service. This evaluation tool is free and open-source in order to\nbe a common tool that anyone can use and contribute to. It aims at providing as\nmany metrics as possible to investigate layout analysis predictions, and also\nprovide an easy way of visualizing the results. This tool evaluates document\nsegmentation at pixel level, and support multi-labeled pixel ground truth.\nFinally, this tool has been successfully used for the ICDAR2017 competition on\nLayout Analysis for Challenging Medieval Manuscripts.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1712.01656v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1712.01656v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"open-evaluation-tool-for-layout-analysis-of","repo_url":"https://github.com/DIVA-DIA/LayoutAnalysisEvaluator","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
